VooDoo Child is probably his most well known song and Foxy Lady the most commercialized.
All Along the Watchtower is his only top 20 hit, it was written by Bob Dylan and is my favorite Hendrix tune.

That's a tough question, because Jimi never really sold out to commercialism. But, many of his songs have been covered, and made into big hits. Foxy Lady or Fire or Purple Haze were probably his most famous, either those, or his rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. My personal favorite is Red House. Good luck!

My favorite is The Wind Cries Mary. No, no...Foxy Lady. Wait a minute, make that All Along the Watchtower. No, it's definitely Purple Haze. Oooh, wait, wait Crosstown Traffic. Hold it, hold it..Hey, Joe. One of them, I think, yeah, definitely, Jimi Hendrix.

Yeah Purple Haze would probably be his most commercialized song, although my personal favorite Jimi song would Electric Ladyland

"best/most commercialized "?
Best: "Red House"
Most commercialized: Hmm. Maybe "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)"
