For pure wistfulness
The Korgis 1980 hit Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime was a revelation. Nothing sounded like it, either in its production and instrumentation, or more basically in its chords and structure. This song is pure mood. The sound anticipates an entire swath of pop that came after, encompassing bands like Tears For Fears and Dream Academy, the latter being one of the army of artists to have a hit covering the song (unfortunately that version is apparently not on youtube).
