   • Prince and the Revolution: 'When Doves Cry' (1984) The image of Prince in a bathtub that opens the music video for "When Doves Cry" is one of the most memorable from the golden era of MTV.
   • Mariah Carey: 'Fantasy' (1995) "Fantasy," driven by a sample from Tom Tom Club's hit "Genius of Love," was released at the peak of Mariah Carey's commercial success.
   • Impressions: 'People Get Ready' (1965) This gospel-influenced classic was written by Curtis Mayfield of the vocal group the Impressions. It only reached No. 14 on the pop singles chart, but its social and political overtones were perfect for the times.
   • Bill Haley and His Comets: 'Rock Around the Clock' (1954) There has been a significant amount of discussion through the years about what was actually the first rock-and-roll song.

   • Kylie Minogue, "Padam Padam" (2023) Why It’s Great: A sly, slow-burning slice of dance-pop seduction, “Padam Padam” found Aussie legend Kylie Minogue delivering an onomatopoeic chorus that became TikTok shorthand for damn near anything (sort of like a Zoomer version of “yadda yadda yadda”) in the summer of 2023.
   • The Who, "The Kids Are Alright" (1966) Why It’s Great: The Who’s oft-referenced mod anthem was also an early textbook for later power-pop purveyors — though few of them would’ve started a song with a lyric about trusting their girlfriend to dance with their male friends.
   • Martina McBride, "Independence Day" (1993) Why It’s Great: Few ’90s country singles have endured as well as Martina McBride’s rousing revenge story song, about her mother’s declaration of independence from an abusive relationship.
   • Frankie Knuckles, "The Whistle Song" (1991) Why It’s Great: The aptly named instrumental is indeed built around perhaps the most inefctious whistle hook you’ve ever heard, an undeniable pop moment for the Chicago house legend.
