    Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA

    CCR - Fortunate Son

    Twisted Sister - We’re Not Gonna Take It

    RATM - Killing In the Name

    The Holy Quad of songs that were written for one opinion and will forever be utilized and replayed by those who don’t get it but think it’s speaking to them.

      Aww, thank you very much for this comment, which not only has “time” in the title but is actually pretty timeless, beyond any meme value. Jim Croce even has several songs that have outlived his generation, such as “I Got a Name.” Those are exactly the songs I was referring to - the ones that, decades later, continue to reach new audiences through movie soundtracks and such.

      I was going to also suggest Rhapsody In Blue by George Gershwin from 1924

    That one Adagio by Albinoni. The one in G minor. You know it when you hear it.

    To be truly timeless you need a few things. A band who knows how to name things. Bad ass drum solos. A couple of electric guitars. An accordion. A flute. Yodeling. Mouth noises. And no lyrics to get in the way.

    I give you “Hocus Pocus” by Focus.

    I have prepared this playlist for this question. These are all songs related to being out of time. (Ordered roughly by relevance)
