I made this thread ahwile ago on a different forum, and it was very succesful.

I wanna know.

What song out of all songs, is most beautiful to you, the one that gives you chills or really makes you think about things.



Mine happens to be a piece that I have performed not too long ago.

It is entitled The Echo Never Fades.

The piece was made to commemorate a young man who has passed, and made such a large impact on those who knew him, that his mother felt it neccessary to preserve his life in a simple sheet of paper with some notes and rythems on it.

Really, an astounding song.

There is a music forum.

Beautiful Child by The Eurythmics. In fact, that whole album, Peace, is just the winner.

 

[Trippytiger]

Music forum x4.

I would have to go with Rush - Bravado for the most beautiful song ever. It's a great song, and the lyrics really speak to me...

Colour My World - Chicago

Many Brian Wilson/Beach Boys selections

Just about anything by Otis Redding

 

[tjohnusa]

"The Infant Kiss" - Kate Bush

 

[Lazarus Short]

"Here, There, and Everywhere" by...Emmylou Harris

Her version is far better than the Beatles' original, features her wonderful voice, and in a cassette tape I made years ago of two of her albums, it is the ONLY song I listen to. As long as the song plays, I can believe that love is possible, then I rewind and play it again.

[Thelonious Monk]

I'm not sure how to transfer the digital concept of a "song". Does Brahms' Clarinet Quintet count?

"song" can be extended to "piece of music that stands alone". so yeah, that counts for sure.

 

[Vicomte]

Janie Jones - The Clash

It makes me all weepy.

Not for any deep meaning but just for the purity of the harmonies - "In My Room" by the Beach Boys. And now that I think of it, "God Only Knows" by them as well.

And John Cale's version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah".
