Arcade Fire's Funeral--Rebellion (Just because it's the best song for standalone listening. The entirety of the album is consistently fantastic, though) 
Weezer's Blue Album--Only in Dreams 
Radiohead's OK Computer--No Surprises (Kid A and OK Computer are pretty even in their fantastic-ness, but if we're talking best for an individual song, I'd have to go for OK Computer) 
 
Note that these are only the three top albums I could currently think of.

@SmashedControllers: For sure, that entire album is amazing.  Although Daisy is probably the biggest disappointment for me ever music wise, Brand New is still my favorite band.  Although I do have to shout-out for Motion City Soundtrack, they are awesome too.  There's better musical taste going on in this thread then I imagined there would be.

Interesting choices so far: I honestly didn't expect many GiantBomb users to listen to the Arcade Fire or Vampire Weekend.
 
It goes without saying, that these favorite albums and songs of mine can change on a daily basis, as they depend on the mood I'm in, the level of hype I'm currently a victim of etc. For example, if you were to ask me anytime later this evening, I'd probably pick The Nation's newest album, and a song called I'm Afraid of Everyone from it, as my favorite album, reclining back on an armchair and being perfectly depressed, for a while. But here goes nothing: 
 
Colossal Youth by Young Marble Giants, N.I.T.A.
Suicide (1980 re-release) by Suicide, I Remember
Meat is Murder (despite the awful title track) by The Smiths, Nowhere Fast

@Carnage1290: How anyone can describe Daisy as a disappointment is beyond me. That album is just oozing with intelligent rage, and the songwriting is better than ever.

Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon- Brain Damage/Eclipse
Gorillaz- Demon Days- All Alone
Interpol- Antics- Slow Hands
 
DSotM is definitely the best album i've ever heard, every single song is perfect in my mind, the other two on my list can change periodically depending on my mood.

It's surprisingly difficult to select three different albums and not pick others... I could name another couple of albums, but as you said, I'll keep to three albums and their songs.

there's no way i could name just three albums, and even if i could i'd have a hard time picking one track from each. so i won't 
 
all i'll say is i've been enjoying quite a bit of g.g.allin. especially scumfuck tradition and when i die. 
 
edit: still, it's not the best ever. just really quite good right now.

@Atlas:    
I don't know.  I really wanted it to be great, just none of the songs stuck out to me like their other albums did.  I was really hoping to love the album, it was just that nebulous feel I guess that just didn't click with me.  Although I have only listened to it once, so I'll probably go back and give it another shot. 
 
@Ahmad_Metallic:    
Glad you like it.  I first heard that song playing the Sgt. Pepper DLC for Beatles Rock Band and just instantly fell in love with the song.  Easily my favorite Beatles song.

I just listed a song from each album as that is what I was instructed to do but these albums really don't have any bad songs on them so it doesn't really matter what songs I put down.

ODB has a lot of great verses but his part on "9 Milli Bros" might be my favorite. all he needs is two lines to kill a track.

I was tempted to include stuff not from the 00's for variety's sake, but you just cannot tear those three albums away from me.
