Another great, possibly overplayed, Costello song: "Peace, Love, and Understanding"

Music Geek here... That's actually written by Nick Lowe who is quite possibly one of the greatest pop song writers ever. And you can't mention Nick Lowe without pointing out how great "Cruel to be Kind" is.

Besides that, I think one of the most perfect pop/rock songs of all time is "Out of My Head" by Fastball. Every time I hear that song I'm blown away by it. Perfect melody. Perfect hamonies. Perfect structure. And a hook line that stays with you.
