Ok, would go straight away with some Andrew Braybrook games:
-
Uridium (absolute fantastic but tough horizontal shooter)
-
Paradroid (like the one on the Amiga, awesome game)
-
Bruce Lee (having so many memories, this is a superb game. There's also a remake which includes different versions:

-
Racing Destruction Set (great racing game with construction set, which lets you build ramps and stuff, has also a remake, although I didn't try that one yet:
http://rds.planetflibble.com/)
-
Impossible Mission (guess everyone knows that)
-
Pirates (Sid Meier classic)
-
Archon (a chess like battle game which I just loved, and still do, remakes existing)
-
Turrican (just another old classic)
-
Summer/Winter Games (no need to explain)
-
Boulderdash (so easy and so addictive)
One of my personal favorites was also
Enigma Force, once you got the hang off it, you couldn't stop. I finished the game almost once a day
And of course, there's many many more...

I think they're even better on the Amiga, as the gameplay stayed the same, but with upgraded graphics. It's difficult to find C64 only games that didn't see a remake on the Amiga.

While I have only played a handful of C64 games at a friend's place (I never owned one myself) I do remember a few games that were well received or which I enjoyed.
Wasteland
Arnie (sort of Commando 'clone' in pseudo 3D)
Project Firestart (own this game still in wrap actually)
