I think the Pointer Sisters "I’m So Excited" checks most of the boxes for me. Steve
I just checked the 1100+ songs on my phone and was surprised to find only 25 of them were recorded after 2010.

Doesn't seem to be going in the right direction according to my tastes.

2000-10  89
1990-00  95
1980-90  160
1970-80  202
1960-70  404
1950-60  102
1940-50  15
1930-40  8

In fact this last decade has been pretty sparse with just 2 notable entries.

Jesse and Joy's 
More than Amigos (2016)

and Bruce Springsteen's  
Dream Baby Dream (2014)

"Wichita Lineman" by Glen Campbell.

I like the "Winchester Cathedral" nomination as well.

Just for contrast I’ll toss in "Highway Star" by Deep Purple. Once the opening riff starts you are helpless.

and for something more modern:

Alesso - Heroes (we could be) ft. Tove Lo   .....  loud but awesome..
