Best recorded rock song ?

Nominate a song that you would consider to be the best recorded rock song you have heard. I will start with an unlikely candidate that is really up there: Eskimo Joe's 'Falling for You' off their Inshalla album. Fantastic song that floats through my whole room and really puts on an magic show.

Title track from Captain Fantasic (vinyl) is breathtaking.

The entire album actually is a sonic delight.

One of my top favorites is 'Unbroken Chain' on the Grateful Dead's album 'From the Mars Hotel'. This song immediately came to mind since it was only done live a couple of times. To paraphrase Bob Weir' explanation as to why it's never performed live; 'Unbroken Chain' presents a problematic situation causing it to stand apart from our other songs. The harmonic lead comes from Phil Lesh and his melody in the lower registers. Low note frequencies travel at a considerably slower rate of speed than do frequencies in the middle and high registers. This makes the audibility and the cohesion difficult to reproduce in a live environment.
