It's really hard for me to give just one answer here, so I'm gonna narrow it down to 3 tracks...
Blow Your Mind
Space Cowboy
Cosmic Girl
Oh, and Everyday! 
And... 
Oh, this is just too difficult!

Well my favourite Jamiroquai song of all time is (Ed, you already know the answer, so I hope we won't fight because of it like we always do -kidding, not seriously- on the MSN ) Corner Of The Earth.
Like Diego said:

The instrumentation in here is just beautiful. |
Even it's a bit far away of Jamiroquai's essence, I think this song is so beautiful, so spiritual, it brings me peace, like Morning Glory does. I love the lyrics of this song, it has so many metaphors "watch the emerald feathers play", "the wind it whispers and the clouds don't seem to care", "this corner of the earth it smiles at me". Besides it's (in my view) the most universal song Jamiroquai has ever made (in the message). How many times we're in a certain place, in a certain situation with certain people and feel like we're dreaming because we can't believe we're so happy? (There goes "think I'll dream 'til the stars shine") And we would like to stop the world in order to live that moment for ever. It's a song for when you are happy. With who you are, when you are, how you are and who you are with. I listened to it for the first time on June 17th 2002 at 7:00 pm and it still makes me cry every time I listen to it   . Too sublime

This is a toughie... but
Space Cowboy - its just got everything, and it makes a great tune for a club with the remix
Then i have Soul Education, Planet Home, Mr Moon, Stillness in time, and Emergancy on Planet Earth which aint in no particular order.
But...
Scam (Live) in the Jazziroquai concert is amazing, as its so much better than the origianl, and it has the best instrumental ive heard.

BIG UP 
my favorite tracks:
corner of the earth: I don't even understand how people can say that Jamiroquai was "crap" because of AFO. This track is pure gold, beautiful song with beautiful lyrics, easily one of the "must be remembered" track by Jamiroquai.
Space clav: My fav instrumental. If most of their instrumental are really good, this one is easily the best. With a Stuart sounding like he has two basses in his hands XD
Bullet: another great instrumental. With a beautiful break at 3 min, thank you Jamiroquai 
Stillness of time (vynil version): one word, wow. The album version was already a big classic, but the samba part in the end gives me chills, that's crazy !!!
Time won't wait: With this track, Jamiroquai showed that they weren't dead yet. Don't know why, but listening it make me feel happy . It just has this "Jamiroquai feel" 
And there is again many many tracks . But right now they're my favorite |

Bleh...hard to pick just one, so I'll do more than one as well:
-Space Cowboy (album version)
-Shoot The Moon
-Black Capricorn Day
-King For A Day
-Traveling Without Moving
-Manifest Destiny
-Do You Know Where You're Coming From?
-Slippin' 'N' Slidin'
-Bullet
-Snooze You Lose
-Runaway
-Radio
yeah,I went a bit nuts, but it's hard to choose just one!! And don't even get me started on some of the live and remixed songs...that'd take me ages to type out.

By a mile, Jamiroquai's best song is Blow Your Mind, although on certain days I'm convinced Shoot The Moon as performed at Montreux '03 is the best crafted.
Still, just picking one or two is a tad unfair since Jamiroquai's got so many solid corkers. A top 15 today, for me, not counting remixes, would look like (in alphabetical order):
Alright, Blow Your Mind, Didjital Vibrations, If I Like It I Do It, Love Foolosophy, Manifest Destiny, Mr Moon, Music Of The Mind, Shoot The Moon, Slipin 'N' Slidin, Starchild, Time Won't Wait, Use The Force, When You Gonna Learn, Where Do We Go From Here
There, that at least covers all the albums. (1 selection from AFO and SYNK respectively, I know, but I think AFO's easily JMQ's weakest album while SYNK is solid but definitely only one rung up the ladder.)

The album version of Space Cowboy is pure bliss!
Although if you ask me tomorrow i will probably say another song, then another, then another...
