I have a surprise answer, but first, the obvious songs:
"I Can't Help It (If I'm Still in Love With You)" "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" "Silver Threads and Golden Needles" "Somewhere Out There" (With James Ingram) "Don't Know Much" (With Aaron Neville) "When Will I Be Loved" "Different Drum" "Blue Bayou" And “Tumblin’ Dice” was amazing!
Now to her most successful song from my experience. I was sitting on the couch with a new lover. She was rather cold and cynical about a lot of the music I was sharing with her. She had been through a horrible divorce and was openly anti-men, but, you know, we all gotta eat, right? She didn’t believe that Linda was “all that good”. She was into the woman’s movement, a true believer in Women’s rights, as was I and as I still am… but she had judged Linda, wrongly!, as a girl who was into men and was subservient to men. She didn’t know much about Ronstadt at the time.
She began criticizing all the cuts from an album I had put on, but then “I Never Will Marry”. She began to say some really negative things about how pathetic it is for a woman to allow a man to control her thoughts and feelings… but as the song went on, she fell silent. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she bolted from the room.
That song, was the most successful song I’ve ever listened to in my life. It lit a fire in a very cold place.

Linda Ronstadt I Never Will Marry
They say that love's a gentle thing
But it's only brought me pain
For the only man I ever loved
Has gone on the morning train
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life
Well the train pulled out
The whistle blew
With a long and a lonesome moan
He's gone he's gone
Like the morning dew
And left me all alone
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life
Well there's many a change in the winter wind
And a change in the cloud's design
There's many a change in a young man's heart
But never a change in mine
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life
