I like Silver_Rose_Wolf's answer best so far...
I would want the song to contain elements of self-conscious artistry, harmony, melody and a progressive "edge" that made it a song that advanced the songform.
I'm going with the Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" for all these reasons....
Safety Dance - Men Without Hats
Stayin' Alive - Bee Gees
Last Train to Clarksville - Monkees
