If you ask fans who discovered The Cure in the early 90's, many will say the band's best song isn't on an album at all; it's Burn, from the 1994 soundtrack for The Crow. This slick and stylish goth alternative masterpiece was recorded in two days at a time when only Smith and drummer Boris Williams remained in the band; which is likely why the percussion is so amazing. Musically this song is influenced by two songs on this list: The Hanging Garden and Fascination Street.
