Songs I can't get away from

Songs come and go and it's easy to get obsessed with one song for a few months (I'm looking at you "No Leaf Clover") and then, however many years later, the song is gone from your daily/weekly/monthly listening habits.  Part of this is because over time people's musical tastes change and part of it is because sometimes the veneer of a song can fade over time for whatever reason ("Drive In, Drive Out").  But some songs never leave.  For me, these songs are like a cross section of my life.  They are integral somehow.  I would explain each song and put a link to youtube or something for each song, but I think music should be discovered, not forced.  These aren't necessarily my "favorite" songs and they aren't the "best" songs.  These are the songs that just get me every time.
