1960's
Fairport Convention -- Farewell, Farewell
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69sLI4n674s

1970's
Grateful Dead -- Estimated Prophet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp18EhK_lBE

A master class in songwriting. A reggae tune in an effortless 7/4 time signature interspersed with two great Garcia guitar leads. The first riffs in a major key, the second in a spooky, funky minor key. Great stuff.

1980's
XTC -- Merely a Man
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHJ5MC9nDTU

1990's
Chirstine Collister -- Ashlands
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok9uV_U0HII

Will never understand why she isn't a massive star.

2000's
Janis Ian -- Life is Never Wrong
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dK6s1ig2sE

A bluesy masterpiece from the most under-appreciated American songwriter

I like Rock Lobster well enough, not top ten B52's and a bit of a comedy song which cheapens it

Give me back my man, 52 Girls, the wonderful intro to Planet Claire which is iconic imo. Lava, Private Idaho (probably my favourite 52's) Dance this Mess Around, Party out of bounds, Strobe Light ...

to name a few better
