The perfect song

[Gregory]

I believe in the template of the perfect song: a piece of music with lyrics that states its premise, builds on it, has a masterful chorus, and ends without superfluous clutter. It has a message, states it in a catchy efficient way, and closes.

I think there are examples from throughout the decades, including songs by the Beatles, Stones and Beach Boys. But I'm beginning to think the apex is the Police's "Every Breath You Take."

Your thoughts?

I've heard it. It goes:

THIS IS BEETLE
IS AS HARD AS HAS
AND HE KNOOOOOOOOOOOWS
WHAT HE HAS

[DaGetHighKnight]

Id like to add Billy Joels "Just the Way you Are"..

[The Roman Candle]
