I find the concept of pinning down an idea of your favourite songs a challenging process. There are many songs that I have rated a perfect score to but to narrow the songs down to the ones that are the closest to you is difficult. But I'm going to try to compile a list of what my favourite songs are.

(In no particular order)
Satellite of Love - Lou Reed
Champagne Supernova - Oasis
Age of Adz - Sufjan Stevens
No Surprises - Radiohead
I Am Trying To Break Your Heart - Wilco
Someone Great - LCD Soundsystem
Pink Triangle - Weezer
Warning Sign - Coldplay
Today - The Smashing Pumpkins
Svefn-G-Englar - Sigur Ros
The Thoughts of Mary Jane - Nick Drake
Androgynous - The Replacements
Coffee & TV - Blur
If You're Feeling Sinister - Belle & Sebastian
Gold Soundz - Pavement
In My Life - The Beatles
A Certain Romance - Arctic Monkeys
Wake Up - Arcade Fire

I've listened to a few more songs and my opinion on songs have sort of changed, so I think I might have a definitive answer for my (current - as it will inevitably change) top 10:

1. Winter's Love - Animal Collective
2. Schizophrenia - Sonic Youth
3. Vapour Trail - Ride
4. From The Morning - Nick Drake
5. Coffee & TV - Blur
6. Anthems of a Seventeen-Year-Old Girl - Broken Social Scene
7. I Am Trying To Break Your Heart - Wilco
8. Age of Adz - Sufjan Stevens
9. Champagne Supernova - Oasis
10. Hyperballad - Bjork
(And here's my extended top 15)
11. A Certain Romance - Arctic Monkeys
12. In My Life - The Beatles
13. Wake Up - Arcade Fire
14. New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down - LCD Soundsystem
15. Svefn-G-Englar - Sigur Ros

Townes Van Zandt - St John The Gambler

I got big respect for you inclusion of this one! Excellent choice. I think TVZ was one of the true greats, "Highway Kind" and "Rake" and "Flying Shoes" are way up on my songs list.

2. Across the Sea - Weezer
3. Venus in Furs - The Velvet Underground
4. Birdhouse in Your Soul - They Might Be Giants
5. Isobel - Björk
6. Parasite - Nick Drake
7. The Prophet's Song - Queen
8. Jesus Christ Pose - Soundgarden
9. Life on Mars? - David Bowie
