Just one? Impossible task but I'll take a stab at it for shits and grins:

bowie-I'll see your 'life on mars' and raise you 'A Space Oddity'

ac/dc-Hmmm, tough one. Live version of 'Whole Lotta Rosie' maybe..... 'Walk all Over You'? I don't know about this one.

van halen-eruption Yeah, probably the one I'd pick.

ufo-Like two different bands to me and I'm not exactly sure which one I like better so I'll pick songs from both. From the early years either 'Timothy', 'Treacle People' or the live version of 'Prince Kajuko Returns'. From the Schenker years either the live version of 'Rock Bottom' or maybe 'You Don't Fool Me'.

genesis-Return of The Giant Hogweed or Music Box

rolling stones-Paint it Black or As Tears Go By

sex pistols-God Save the Queen

hendrix- Love or Confusion

deep purple-One More Rainy Day
