Gimme Sympathy - METRIC
It changed the way I think about music. I'm listening to good current music now, so many good indie bands out there making stuff better than regular radio. They were my gateway band into hope. Metric pulled me out of something bad and into something new, fresh and exciting. And to top it off, they're also Canadian.

Stones 77, I can relate.....I was eleven years old in 1966, so my list could have also included:
Windy - THE ASSOCIATION (first band I ever saw in concert, in 1970)
Happy Together - TURTLES
Last Train to Clarksville - MONKEES
.... and several other less cool responses!
I guess part two of this thread would be:
"SONGS THAT MADE YOU WANT TO ACTUALLY THROW SOMETHING AT THE RADIO!"
Here's that list:
1. Elusive Butterfly of Love - BOB LIND (made you look around for an empty Dr. Pepper bottle to heave)
2. Honey - BOBBY GOLDSBORO
3. I Am Woman - HELEN REDDY
4. Feelings - MORRIS ALBERT
5. Tie a Yellow Ribbon - TONY ORLANDO AND DAWN
6. Take a Letter, Maria - A. C. GREAVES
7. We Built This City - STARSHIP (LOVED the Airplane, but this was trash)
8. One Bad Apple - OSMONDS
9. Rhinestone Cowboy - GLEN CAMPBELL
I think that's enough, I'm starting to not feel so well......

Thanks for sharing the free download!
I was just going to download this song on Amazon today cuz it's been in my head for a few months - and lo and behold - it's free, so I thought i'd pass it along...
