Don't Fear the Reaper
Dust in the Wind
Electric Eye
Enter Sandman
Everlong
Fear of the Dark
Fell on Black Days

I'd vote for Crazy on You if I was allowed to have 11 votes.
 
I want to put all my votes on '18 and Life'.
But since that's not allowed: Creep, Dream On, Don't Fear the Reaper, 18 and Life, Electric Eye, Enter Sandman, Every Breath..., Fat Bottomed, FOTD, Fell on Black Days.
 
There may not be a more overexposed song, but I just gave Hotel California a listen.
It's actually pretty good. Very creepy vibe, stellar lyrics and the outro guitar duel is top-notch.
Plus, when a song is that overexposed, it deserves to qualify. I'll be voting for it.
 
Are there any other U2 songs in this? There are quite a few overexposed ones I'd vote for, just not this one. ;)
 
Here Comes the Sun
Highway to Hell
Iron Man
I Wanna Be Sedated
I Want It All
Kashmir
Killing in the Name
La Grange
Layla
Let It Be

Weakest round yet.
 
I'm surprised at the result for "I Want It All". It's a great song, but it's not a song I would have expect to make so many people's lists.
 
Highway, Sedated, I Want It All, Kashmir, Killing..., Know Your Enemy, Layla, Learn To Fly, Lithium, Living
 
I could only go with 8 songs from this list.

London Calling
Losing My Religion
Man in a Box
Money
Money for Nothing
My Generation
Nothing Else Matters
The Number of the Beast

I think it's because it's not that overexposed. It was a hit when The Miracle was released, but I have very rarely heard it since. I'm pleasantly surprised when it is played on satellite radio. One of my favorite 80s Queen songs.
