well, that's kinda harsh. So what if the guy can't sing? Why does that make him suck? Dylan can't either.

I second Van Morrison (and vote for Moondance. I'm sure she's heard Brown Eyed Girl, but maybe not Moondance).
My favorite Led Zepp songs are Dye'r Maker, Dazed and Confused, and You Shook Me (not the AC/DC song).
did someone mention Guns N Roses? Probably. I don't remember. Paradise City is a classic.
for Pink Floyd, it's hard. Maybe Comfortably Numb? The problem is that their early stuff go so well as complete albums (Wall, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here).

Mean Old Frisco - Neil Young doesn't suck. Sorry.
As for the rest of this thread, this is by no means an exhaustive list of song's I'd put in a collection, just some things that I thought of while reading everyone else's suggestions.
Eagles' "Desperado" The Band "Stage Fright", "Up On Cripple Creek" Otis Redding "Dock of the Bay" The Who "Behind Blue Eyes" Neil Young "The Needle and the Damage Done" or "Old Man" Elton John "Tiny Dancer", "Burn Down The Mission", or "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" The Doors "Unknown Soldier", "The Spy", "Roadhouse Blues", or "Waiting for the Sun" Gordon Lightfoot "Don Quixote", "If You Could Read My Mind", or "Cherokee Bend" Janis Joplin "Summertime", or "Mercedes Benz"

About the Beatles/Age thing, I think that some people just have their music taste corrupted before giving the Beatles a fair chance.
Luckily, I started liking the Beatle's earlier stuff when I was 9 (I'm only 15 now), and slowly worked my way up. Now it's all on my playlist.
