Artists and their song

Ok let's play a little game.
We have to give out artists names and THE song that is representative of their work. I'll start with a few: It dosen't have to be their most popular song but the one you think that does represent them the best.
Prodigy - Smack my bitch up Infected Mushroom - Virtual Voyage The Doors - The End Shpongle - And the day turned to night ( This is based on opinion no harsh feelings:P ) Hallucinogen - LSD Juno Reactor - Conga Fury The orb = Little Fluffy Clouds Bob Marley - I wanna love you Cat Steven - Moon Shadow Bjork - Joga Radiohead - Paranoid Android Sublime - The wrong way Vivaldi - The four seasons Manu Chao - King of the Bongo Beatles - Across the universe Air - Sexy Boys Asura - Code Eternity Kraftwerk - Radioactivity
and finally to end the example: Toto - Africa Las Ketchup - Asereje

I wouldn't say Sexy Boy is indicative of Air's other work.
Here's some input from me:
The Pixies - Bone Machine Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling Stone The Cure - Love Song Grateful Dead - Ripple Led Zeppelin - The Lemon Song Pearl Jam - I Got ID Sonic Youth - Self Obsessed and Sexxee

I dunno, Prodigy had some phases, maybe cuz I'm biased to Jilted Generation, I'da picked Poison or Voodoo People My additions: Dave Matthews (Band) - Rapunzel Chemical Brothers - Sunshine Underground Underworld - Born Slippy Beethoven - 9th Symphony Mozart - Eine Kleine Nachtmusik Debussy - Prelude to a Fawn Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue 2Pac - You Can't See Me Boards of Canada - Sunshine Recorder or Telephasic Workshop Santana - Oye Como Va Nine Inch Nails - Closer Pinback - Offline PK Sigur Ros - Svefn G Englar The Roots - The Next Movement Steve Vai - For The Love of God Tool - Lateralus (arguably) Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb or Wish You Were Here Stone Temple Pilots - Big Empty or Plush Rolling Stones - Satisfaction or Gimme Shelter Soundgarden - Loud Love or Day I Tried To Live
-------------------- Blas'?trid (bl?s tr?d) n. 3rd generation derivitave of a combination of 'bastard' and 'blasted'. Used as both an insult or an expletive. ex. Blastrid! Stereopattern <--My music.

Dave Mathews Band - Satelite Radiohead - National Anthem The Rolling Stones - Painted Black Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced Stone Temple Pilots - Wicked Garden The Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet With Butterfly Wings OutKast - Sorry Mrs. Jackson The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi (Not Vaseline!) Red Hot Chili Peppers - Underneath the Bridge Weezer - Say It Ain't So Janes Addiction - Jane Says Black Sabbath - Planet Caravan

great thread! (though firestarter always was THE prodigy tune for me... not their best, but most... prodigal)
pink floyd - echoes (my favorite and it does cover more pf than most of their other songs, though not by far everything) van morrison - bright side of the road (i really want to say cleaning windows, it's my second favorite song after echoes, but it's not THAT typical of van... but still quite) beach boys - i get around rhapsody - emerald sword syd barret - dominoes (perhaps the sound is more complex than most of his songs, but to me, this one's got syd written all over it)
damn, this is hard... i can't keep from mentioning my favorites!

I agree with your picks for Shpongle and Juno Reactor
Sublime, however, I would say Santaria

Honestly I would choose Redemption Song as Bob Marley's definitive song. The Velvet Underground I would choose Heroin. Being a ridiculously huge fan of them, that song is in my opinion their definitive, because no other song in their repetoire can bring out such emotion in Lou Reed's voice, in live recordings and even in the studio.

Daedelus - Thus The Whirligig Melancholy Gypsys - Mass Media Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool DJ Qbert - Cosmic assassins Mel Gibson and the Pants - A Mannequin American
And the day turned to night was a justified choice.
