What is the overall best song you have ever heard? I mean, a song in which everything works. The vocals, the instruments, the writing and the production? The ultimate song in your opinion. For me, Grace Jones' Slave to the Rhythm is probably the ultimate song. The song is profound, and she really gets it to work. Slave to the Rhythm have perfect balance. What is the overall best song you have ever heard? Don't mind others. This is what you think.
