RF Music Playlist

I want to make a new playlist of songs to listen to. So would love to get some input from here. Let me know the following:

What is your favourite song of all time?
What is your current most listened to song?
What is the most memorable song from your youth/childhood? (nostalgia)

YouTube link them

One for any circumstance.

But this would come close.

What is the most memorable song from your youth/childhood? (nostalgia)

While at a June 1982 concert by the Rolling Stones in West Berlin, Nena's guitarist Carlo Karges noticed that balloons were being released. As he watched them move toward the horizon, he noticed them shifting and changing shapes, where they looked nothing like a mass of balloons but some strange spacecraft (referred to in the German lyrics as a "UFO"). He thought about what might happen if they floated over the Berlin Wall to the Soviet sector.
Both the English and German versions of the song tell a story of 99 balloons floating into the air, triggering an apocalyptic overreaction by military forces. The music was composed by Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen, the keyboardist of Nena's band, while Karges wrote the original German lyrics.
