Interesting question.

My immediate thought of a missed category, is songs where the lyrics are (literally or essentially) meaningless, and the voice is just being used as a melody instrument (Lennon and McCartney admited that the majority of their pre '65 songs were like this)

As far as your other categories are concerned, there are far too many to mention for most of them.

One song that springs to mind for pure emotion is 'Teenage Kicks' by the Undertones. Makes me wish I was that young again!

I'll have a think and get back again later
