well for a start I would say deep purple would have smoke on the water as their signature , procul harum would have a whiter shade of pale , Steppenwolf would have born to be wild. im only saying that because in those cases it is the best known song for that particular artist , kate bush would have wuthering heights. the trouble with this is that a lot of people then forget all of the other fantastic songs and tracks that have been recorded by these people and consequently they only define them by one song. another example would be the moody blues with nights in white satin which althiough a great song is only a tiny part of the other fantastic music that was made by this artist.

agree with CH's Dylan - Like A Rolling Stone and Rusty's first 3, and Jeromes first 2
as for Kate Bush and Jerome's Rodriguez pick
I don't think they known well enough to have a "signature" song
also disagree with Jeromes Cat Stevens
I think it would be Peace Train
and what about Elvis Presley
any takers on that one?

U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday, Although I admit they have a lot that could be considered for this.
