First track from The Sleepy Jackson Lovers LP from 2003.  A fantastic, under-rated record.

How many of these songs will be known in 30 years, in the way that people are familiar with works by Buddy Holly or the Beatles, although they were before they were born?

Does that assume that Buddy Holly or the Beatles wrote the best songs of that era?

You're nothing on this board unless you post some lesser known music in an attempt to show you're not "a sheep". Same for the boys that don't watch films unless they have subtitles as that automatically makes it better

To me, yes. But I'm not one of the cool kids  and it's relatively unknown for a reason...

I can think of a few clinkers probably pushing the 10yr limit & mostly one hit wonders

The Avalanches - Since I left you
Omc - How Bizzare
Len - Steal My Sunshine
Cornershop - Brimful of Asha? (thats more like 20yrs prob?)
Faithless - God is a DJ
Tiesto - Adagio for Strings

But you want to be one by acting anti-cool so you appear to look cool. You rebel! 

As for my (real) nomination, I'd go with Crazy by Gnarls Barkley.

Nailed me you bastard!

What era is that?

The era in which they released their music.

In that case I'd say yes, they did indeed write the best music of their own particular age.
