Mega choice, Dave. Since they put that up on YouTube I've watched that again and again and again, then a few more times after recording it off the telly the other night.
For me,
You're Just Too Good To Be True, Andy Williams version.

I'm probably going to get flamed bad for this but whats new....
Man In The Mirror by Michael Jackson. When the gospel choir comes in on that song is one of the most uplifting moments in a song for me next to anyhting Stevie Wonders done

My fave toon changes every day but right now it would have to be this one because I'm in a bit of a '90s indie mood at the moment.

Impossible to have ONE favourite. I can think of one and then there'll be about 5 I forgot.
Right now I'm thinking Led Zeppelin's 'In My Time of Dying'. It's sounds damn rude....but long: To be fair, I could have picked any of about 10 LZ songs.
Bob Dylan did a great acoustic version on his first album:
Son House's 'Death Letter' is something I've been listening to a lot this past few weeks. I'm going to learn it on guitar at some point. He changed it seemingly every time he played it but this version is the best one (and better than Clapton's):
For the LZ fans who like the more folky, acoustic songs (mostly 3rd album) then I'd recommend some Bert Jansch. Jimmy Page was heavily influenced by him and you'll recognise some of the chord sequences from his stuff. Black Waterside is a great one:
Told you I couldn't pick one. Sorry!
