LN2 "Candy's Room", AL's go-to Bruce tune in '78.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

If we want to discuss 78 LNs, I'd nominate Candy's Room in a heartbeat. This was Dave's go-to Springsteen song from Darkness, and I have had my fill of it.

ETA: Go-to JINX!!!

ETA2: Can't speak for AL's frequency, but Candy's Room appears in the Shraytabase 13 times, 5 of which are classics. Thus solidifying its Katrina status, to say nothing of LN-ness.

I would concur. R/ "Love Is Like Oxygen", I would be gobsmacked if Sugar Ray's sampling for "Mr. Bartender" appeared in a 2003 set.

uber-LN3 "Baker Street". Am I crazy or was that Ted Kennedy speech from 1980?

While it's one of my favorite songs of the late 70's, this is definitely LN.

And I have to laugh (and agree w/) at DW's comment r/ Bruce in the Snipes: "Can't we just have one set w/o Bruce"?

he does appear frequently. But his catalog is huge enuf that we should NEVER hear a Bruce LN. Sadly, we do, frrequently.

BOS3 Stephen Bishop getting his geetar smashed in Animal House.  BOS4 Nick Lowe, "Breaking Glass"

Here's my BOS vote (unless Undertones should appear among the remaining couple of songs).

BOS Nick Lowe, (I Love the Sound of) Breaking Glass.

BOS5 H&O "It's a Laugh", which was a request of mine once upon a time... a great underrated 45 of theirs.

Spoke too soon:

BOS It's a Laugh, H&O. Longtime fave, and one that we have definitely not heard too often (although not a bustout).
