Other than bands that are mainly brass (i.e. Rebirth or something), I love songs with a lot of horns and shite or sometimes with just a little bit of brass but done perfectly. What are some of your favorites?

I know I spew a ton of Beatles stuff on here but I just love this song:
The Beatles - Got to Get You Into My Life

Love the horn at the beginning of this one
Chicago - Saturday in the Park

One of the GOATs, obviously
Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4

Love the beginning horn here
Elvis Costello - I'll Never Fall In Love Again

This by far

I'm also a huge fan of brass in songs. Some of my favorites:

INXS - Never Tear Us Apart
Elvis Presley - Suspicious Minds
Otis Redding - Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa (Sad Song)
George Harrison - Wah Wah
Chicago - Searchin'
Denis Wilson - River Song

I'm gonna get blasted for this, but the single redeeming "cover" from Glee is Don't Stop Beleivin from the first episode. The brass they added is fantastic.
