David Bowie's version of "Wild is the Wind" from an absolutely great live set from an early 2000's Japan show (I believe)... can play it 100 times in a row and never tire of it.
Pink Floyd's "Time" from Dark Side of the Moon I find it a good why to test a system, components, and cables. Let's me know in seconds whether everything is as it should be, If I am lucky I enjoy the music, otherwise I fix it.
I tend to get stuck in a loop. I'll do fine for a while and then some song will take me somewhere and I will listen to it until I burn it out. My current obsession is Maria Bethânia - Dindi. I don't understand a word but the emotional attachment is palatable.
If I go back over the years, I would guess it would be the greatest Rock & Roll song ever written and recorded. The anger and violence till drips from the song. Powerful lyrics that still ring true 50+ years later. A searing guitar solo that barely consists on more than one note. Vocals ending in that great falsetto. Yup, that would be the one song for sure.
May be a tie with my first 45 rpm single that was the theme song to the TV series Cheyenne (it was the only record I owned for 6-7 years, so it got played a LOT).
If I only get to pick one, Strawbs-Witchwood. I've always been completely absorbed in British folk rock, play something from this genre nearly every listening session.
