I would have to say Your Song by Elton John. So many love songs just beat you over the head with the romantic angle to the point where it's nauseating and often the song itself gets trampled in the process of getting the love theme out there. I like how Your Song is very understated, innocent and genuine in both the lyrics and the music. Besides, it's hard to find anyone who can write a better pop single than Elton John.
