I definitely echo the "Red Light Special" mention. Chili could always be counted on for a good bridge. While "Baby Baby Baby" doesn't have a traditional song structure, the "Long as you know..." part is technically a bridge and is terrific.
Mariah Carey has some amazing bridges, with my favorites being those on "Love Takes Time" and "Butterfly."
Who doesn't sing along to the bridge on "Weak" by SWV?
I also must stan for the bridge on Anita Baker's "Sweet Love." That one always gets me on my feet.

Taylor Swift's Out Of the Wood Remember when you hit the brakes too soon? Twenty stitches in a hospital room When you started crying, baby, I did too When the sun came up, I was looking at you Remember when you couldn't take the heat? I walked out and said I'm setting you free But the monsters turned out to be just trees When the sun came up, you were looking at me
Getaway Car (...) I'm in a getaway car I left you in a motel bar Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys That was the last time you ever saw me
Call It What You Want (...) I recall late November Holdin' my breath, slowly I said "You don't need to save me But would you run away with me?" Yes

I wouldn't say it's one of the greatest bridges of all time or anything like that, but there's something about the production that makes it my favorite part of one of my favorite songs.

The Getaway Car bridge is perfection. So is the one for Delicate.
I also love the bridge for “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)”

Yes @ "Off The Wall" and I'mma place this one here too, also by MJ, "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' with it's bridge of sheer exuberance:
"Lift your head up high and scream out to the world "I know I am someone," and let the truth unfurl No one can hurt you now because you know what's true Yes, I believe in me, so do believe in you Help me sing it"

I can't believe no one has said Lady Gaga - Judas. That is her best bridge by far!

I was only 8 back then, but I could feel her pain and sadness in that song.
I don't wanna laugh I don't wanna play I don't wanna talk I have nothing to say
I don't want to tour Forget the show How can I go on Now that you are gone?

I know it’s not one of the best but I really like the bridge on Sia’s Fire Meet Gasoline.

The bridge to Jon B.'s "Pretty Girl" is just heavenly.
There's a candle that is burning in my heart tonight And the flame is full of my desire And I can't but desire you in my bed tonight I'll touch you in the places no one's been before And I'll kiss you in the places where men sometimes ignore And I'll take you to a level you've never felt before And though you won't understand, you'll cry and beg for me.

The bridge of TiK ToK is legendary even though its lyrics are completely irrelevant to the rest of the song.

Where were you when I needed you most? Would have done anything to hold you close Would have given the world to be back in your arms But you left me so torn apart.
