No Particular Order:

Don't You (Forget About Me) - Simple Minds

Whip It - Devo

Crazytrain - Ozzy

You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC

Welcome To The Jungle - Guns 'n' Roses

Stuck in the Middle With You - Stealers Wheel

Stairway to Heaven - Led Zepplin

Fight for Your Right - Beastie Boys

Enter Sandman - Metallica

Great Balls of Fire - Jerry Lee Lewis

Hound Dog - Elivis Presley

Rock and Roll All Night - KISS

Piano Man - Billy Joel

American Pie - Don McClane

I Want To Hold Your Hand - The Beatles

Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones

Jump - Van Halen

Candle In The Wind - Elton John

I Feel Good - James Brown

Staying Alive - The Beegees

While there are certainly other songs that I personally like more than those on this list, this is the greatest of all time. So, my votes go on those that affected other generations, not just my own.

I'm also a huge AC/DC fan (I have the whole catalog), and I certainly wouln't have minded posting Thunderstruck, Hell's Bells, and so on...but one's enough per band, IMO.
