Best songs of 1967

The studio turned into an instrument this year rather than a room you played in, and the overdub became something you built a record around instead of a way to fix a bad take. The Velvet Underground's first album sold almost nothing on release and rearranged everything downstream of it anyway.

Songs from the albums of 1967, ordered by their own ratings rather than the record's.

One great song, one bad album

Tracks carry their own ratings here, so a record you would never play front to back can still have a song worth defending.
