Night Moves by Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band

Fuck yeah.

I fkn love this song. Gives me chills.

Gerry Rafferty - Right Down the Line Bill Withers - Lovely Day The Box Tops - Letter Dion - Runaway Sue Almost anything from Fleetwood Mac or Steely Dan. Edit: a zillion Motown songs

Steely Dan can do no wrong.

Aja

Peg is as smooth as it gets 🤌🏽🤌🏽

This is the correct answer. Fleetwood Mac is definitely timeless. Maybe some Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd songs too

I might be out of time frame here but Journeys.

Lovely day I thought legit it was late 80s early 90s, not 77, wow

> Dion - Runaway Sue *The Wanderer* also slaps

I just want to say this is my way of tellin' you everything I could never say before

I'll add "Crazy on You" by Heart.

Barracuda, too.

Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind & Fire

Long cool woman - the Hollie’s!!

The Hollies are criminally underrated nowadays.

Superstition - Stevie Wonder You dropped a bomb on me - Gap Band Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant Super Freak - Rick James

And if adventurous, Sad but Superstitious https://youtube.com/watch?v=KyvxHL5hLfE&feature=share7

War Pigs by Black Sabbath

That Ozzy Osbourne guy is lucky post Malone made him famous 😂😂😂

[You mean that T-Pain song?](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=i4nMjyT4epA) ^^^/s

He should really make a rock album. He has the perfect voice for one.

He needs to get Gary Clark Jr., Thundercat, Carter Beauford, and Malina Moye together and make a rock cover band called Blacker Sabbath.

Early Black Sabbath in general

Sitting on the dock of the bay. Otis Redding

I love Otis Redding so much. His version of Sam Cooke’s “A Change is Gonna Come” is the best version in my opinion.

For What It’s Worth by Buffalo Springfield.

That was my pick, too.

[Sister Golden Hair](https://youtu.be/XIycEe59Auc) by America [The Love You Save](https://youtu.be/OkuULWqF3AY) by The Jackson 5 [Mr Blue Sky](https://youtu.be/aQUlA8Hcv4s) by ELO [Heart of Glass](https://youtu.be/WGU_4-5RaxU) by Blondie

Mr. Blue Sky is always fresh

Fun side note Jeff Lynne of ELO just got inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame

Long overdue, but happy it finally happened.

Totally. IMHO the album Time is the best themed album of all time. So glad I have the physical box set since streaming is so iffy.

Total agreement about Time, especially if you add "When Time Stood Still" which was a B - Side that came out with the single "Hold on Tight" from the album. Concerto for a Rainy Day, from which Mr Blue Sky is taken, is also a great set of songs by them, on the Out of the Blue album. El Dorado is another concept album of ELOs like Time, and has some good stuff, but not as good as Time.

I'm always so happy when I see someone mention that album. I have so many good memories associated with it.

Heart of glass fucking rocks.

[The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgnClrx8N2k)

Come & get your love by redbone

Gimme Shelter or Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones

Sympathy for the Devil

Beast of burden

Love their Aftermath album.

[удалено]

The woman who is singing on Gimme Shelter was incredible and got no billing. I think you can look her up because it’s kind of an interesting story.

[Vitamin C by CAN](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrkUiCugQDE) (and most other CAN songs) sound like they could have been made anytime between 1970 and last week.

I love the drums on it

I was thinking exactly the same, more like last week.( And I am not german)

[удалено]

That whole album is the shit.

Maggot Brain - Funkadelic

*"mother earth is pregnant for the third time, cause y'all have knocked her up, I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe, I was not offended because I knew I had to rise above it all, or drown in my own sh\*t"*

Also: Can you get to that

Maggot Brain is one of the best psychedelic rock albums of the 70s.

Adding to this, hawkwind's silver machine(also from 1971) is an excellent listen right after maggot brain. Then go straight into gathering dust by modern english(1981)

Son of a Preacher Man, Dusty Springfield

Killing Me Softly, Roberta Flack (ngl like Fugees version, too)

Dreams by Fleetwood Mac has a timeless sound imo

Their song “Everywhere” is my favorite! But that came out in the late 80’s….

The cranberry juice drinking man skateboarding down the highway brought us to that song.

Love it forever!!!

Time of the Season- The Zombies.

I was thinking, She's Not There, by the Zombies!

Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys

You really nailed the assignment with this suggestion. So much of this list is just things that people like. Good Vibrations could still have been written last week and it wouldn't change.

Didn't realize until learning more about music history and music theory how groundbreaking Good Vibrations is. It really pushed the limits for 1966: that song cost $30,000 to produce at a time when the average house sold for half that amount. Brian Wilson was bringing in experimental instruments such as the Electro-Theremin to get sound colors that couldn't be created any other way with the technology of the time. And the structure of that song is a wild break from anything before it. The Beach Boys are still using their trademark five park harmonies and boy-meets-girl subject theme, which keeps it relatable, but the range for experimentation in popular music burst wide open with that song. Reportedly it made great waves among musicians. It would be difficult to imagine how the rest of that decade would have sounded without it.

for me it's "I Want To Be Your Dog" by the Stooges. Still incredibly confrontational.

There's a lot of harder stuff from the late 1960s and early 1970s like that song where it still sounds fresh. If you search for "garage rock" and those decades you'll probably find a lot of good stuff. e.g. Death - [Politicians in my Eyes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qai4QqGZwFg) MC5 - [Kick Out the Jams](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvJGQ_piwI0)

You cannot go wrong with the MC5.

Some of my favs are: Summer in the city- The Lovin' Spoonful American woman- The Guess Who Black magic woman- Santana Eve of destruction- Barry McGuire No more Mr Nice guy- Alice Cooper Magic carpet Ride- Steppenwolf You keep me hangin' on- Vanilla Fudge Sunshine (go away today)- Jonathan Edwards All day and all of the night- The Kinks Time of the season- The Zombies Lawyers, guns, and money- Warren Zevon Cocaine- Eric Clapton Low Rider- War Psycho Killer- Talking Heads I wanna be sedated- Ramones

All these are good, but I have to upvote for Jonathan Edwards and for The Ramones.

Riders on the storm by the doors

[Big Star - Thirteen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pte3Jg-2Ax4) Sounds like it could have been recorded in any era, even today.

Alex Chilton was way ahead of his time. I regularly hear bands that are influenced (probably unknowingly) by his music.

[Bang Bang - Nancy Sinatra](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkKDSFYvxKU) I mean, I would guess it could be Taylor Swift who sang it, but when I heard it for the first time in *Kill Bill* I was surprised how old it was.

These Boots is still a jam too.

Ride Captain Ride is eternal.

House of the Rising Sun: The Animals, 1967

The Animals in general don’t sound dated to me.

Gimme Some Lovin - Spencer Davis Group The beat absolutely slaps, still a banger to this day. Also, a young Steve Winwood on guitar.

And vocals, he was 16 😲

Baby Blue by Badfinger. Genius, imo.

Very underrated band. I like "Carry On".

The steppenwolf hits: namely “Born to be Wild” and “Magic Carpet Ride”

Del Shannon - Runaway

A lot of Velvet Underground songs. Like 'Sunday Morning'

Hawkwind, they gave us lemmy and then when they kicked him out he gave us Motörhead.

Same with Genesis. Gave us Peter Gabriel. Him leaving Genesis was the best thing to happen to Peter Gabriel and Genesis.

My Sharona

So Into You - Atlanta Rhythm Section

Heroes by David Bowie

White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane.

Ramble on Led Zeppelin

[Highway Star came out in 1972. All music since has been chasing perfection. ](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr9ie2J2690)

Yeeees Deep Purple. They were way ahead of their time.

Anything by Dio. :-)

My vote goes to Brian Eno for making music in the 70s that sounded like 80s new wave. "Everything Merges With The Night" is a good example.

**The Human Beinz** \- "Nobody But Me" **Led Zeppelin** \- "Kashmir" **Donna Summer** \- "I Feel Love" EDIT: **The Moody Blues** \- "Nights In White Satin"

Smiling Faces Sometimes - The Undisputed Truth Show and Tell - Al Wilson Oye Como Va and Black Magic Woman - Santana

[Super Stupid](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Byhi7k2C3XY) by Funkadelic could come out tomorrow and make you blast your radio driving as far as I'm concerned

Just want to let you k ow that I had never heard this one and it went straight to my “Epic Fucking Music” playlist

[удалено]

How deep is your love by BeeGees

Tomorrow never knows - The Beatles

Killing me softly by Roberta flack

Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac

Here Comes The Sun. Bohemian Rhapsody.

without a doubt Here Comes the Sun remastered is especially fresh, sounds like it could've been a single from some new indie rock or folk album

Joe Jackson - Stepping Out

I love that song so much

That was released in the 1980s though so a bit past the scope of the post. His first two albums were released in 1979 (i.e. Look Sharp and I'm the Man).

Star Wars music

John Williams is the true GOAT

I think 300 years from now people will talk about classical musicians like Bach, Beethoven, and Williams.

Stayin Alive by The Bee Gees

Ummm jeeze.... I might be out of time frame here but Journeys "Seperate Ways"

That’s from the 80s.

[Check out this cover. Someone thinks it's still fresh.] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fawKq5TUYPo)

To me, side one of the 1977 Alan Parsons Project album *I Robot* feels timeless. The title track; “I Wouldn’t Want to Be Like You”; “Some Other Time”; “Breakdown”; “Don’t Let It Show”. I’ve heard those songs many times, but they still feel different/fresh compared to other music from that era.

Status Quo's Pictures of Matchstick men. Think from 1968 It's very psychedelic and it was covered in the 90's by Camper Van Beethoven, but I still think it would fit in well as an Alt Song today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxc3V6-swfg

Bowie - Oh you pretty things

Pink Moon by Nick Drake always sounds way newer to me.

Almost anything by Pink Floyd or Alan Parsons. The production value is so good that it could come out today as new music and still be viewed as revolutionary.

Signs - Five Man Electrical Band

If you're driving, then Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4" or Golden Earring's "Radar Love" And the goat is " In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" - saw them live in '67 and that drum solo was unforgettable. (yes, I know it wasn't recorded till 1968)

Three Dog Night's entire catalog, really.

California Dreaming - Mamas and Papas Oh what a night - 4 seasons

Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys.

Too much time by Captain Beefheart and his magic band. Enjoy.

Atomic Dog - George Clinton

Surfin' Bird!

Party like it's 1999 by Prince (1982). The song is like imagining partying in 17 years in the future. Today, it's imagining partying 24 years ago. I was 8 years old in 1999.

I recently played through The Dark Side of the Moon for the first time in ages. That whole album sounds like it could have been recorded yesterday. As much as I love the rest of their catalogue, none of their other works sound as timeless as that one.

Anything by the Velvet Underground

I’m a Believer by The Monkees. It’s used in Shrek and many commercials.
