Damn it, _six_? Ok, I'll try to pull the top six in imprecise order, then all the hopefuls will follow. :)
In most cases, the song is simply the 'near top' of a favorite artist, like Ray Charles. I love him.

1) Georgia on my Mind, Ray Charles
2) Saltarello, Dead Can Dance
3) A Forest, the Cure
4) Clair de Lune, Debussy
5) Kiss Me, Sixpence None the Richer ( <- wife and I, this is 'our song')
6) Trust in Me, Siouxsie and the Banshees
