Greatest Rock Songs of All Time (any genre)

This one has always got an A+ with me.Thompson Twins - "Lay Your Hands on Me"Technical and sophisticated, with Gospel elements like in a Black Baptist Church lost somewhere deep in the US State of Georgia (I am in Augusta, Georgia right now as I write this, by the way).Wonderful lyrics:"I was tired and I was cold.Yeah with a hunger in my souland it almost seemed too muchI see you face and sense the grace and feel the magic of your touchOH, lay your hands...oh, lay your hands on me"Deeply spiritual but with a light fun side too. This band moved almost to perfection with this number.

Fantastic performance. Those 3 dance girls do an amazing job: They come on stage, take charge and interact with the band perfectly, even as they continue to play.:Golden Earring - Twilight Zone
