An old roommate of mine in the 80s in California (he happened to be from Ohio)…..Dire Straits was one of his four favored bands/artists……Springsteen, The Who, Michael Franks, and Dire Straits.

I was in college when Dire Straits' first album came out. It was nothing like we'd heard before. It wasn't pop, it wasn't traditional rock, the sound was stripped down but wasn't punk or new wave, it didn't fit into any other known compartment. The groove was so astonishingly infectious, how could you not like it? 45 years later and I still can't describe or explain it.
Lots of great songs listed in this thread. I don't know of any song I ever tire of hearing but I know there are tunes I haven't and will most likely ever listen to. Anything vulgar rap, forget it. Even my favorite rap artist, Marshall Mathers III, aka Eminem have some I won't listen to. But I like his Lose Yourself and Not Afraid, very much.
Over the years, I guess I've listened to more of the Beatles' In My Life, Jefferson Starship's, Count On Me, anything and everything by Dire Straits, Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird, Bob Seger's, Like a Rock and the rest of his songs. The Stones' Gimme Shelter.
Aw, there's just too many to name. There's over 70 years of music packed in my brain. Choosing which song I'd never tire of hearing would be like asking me which one of my friends I like more. They're all special and for a variety of reasons. And they all have a time and place in my life.
