Beautiful Songs Only Please

[Mewie]

I know we have a thread about "What song are you listening to" but I wanted to keep track of the most beautiful songs you've ever heard. Please link the song, if possible!

I'll start:

"There's No Place LIike Home" by Michael Giacchino (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8mTmjP-TJ0)

Comments that I totally agree by:

"I'm a grown freaking man who has seen a lot of **** in my life. And this song may be the only music to ever flat out bring me to tears."

"someone asked me if id rather be blind or deaf,after this song,i know the answer"

[xVaTaLLaT]

No one give me crap -.-
"Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHyJTpDFgc8)

[Pinworms]

I like The Wind by Cat Stevens

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4-IZTZkTY8

and Bridge Over Troubled Waters

Layla (Piano Exit) by Derek And The Dominos

Maybe a bit outside of the box of what you were asking for, but still beautiful pieces with vocals that are amazing.

45 (acoustic) - Shinedown (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAWhB1_ZqvM&feature=related)
Not about suicide like many think after hearing the song. It's basically about how hard life is, and trying to understand who you are as a person. 45 stands for the world, and how at times it can feel like a gun. It's about being comfortable with yourself, which is one of the hardest things to do. As stated by Lead singer.

Bother (acoustic) - Stone Sour (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbKrt-bs0m4)
A pretty simple straightforward song conveying pain, and the difficult nature of emotions.

Simple Man (acoustic) - Shinedown (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_yBTIkwXoA&feature=related)
This song live is otherworldly, the emotion/inflection coupled with the power of his voice is just moving.

Acoustic Medley - In Flames (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUMb5V1lkXQ&feature=related)

Angels Fall Down by Skillet (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5Wzdh377SQ)

Emotionally powered voices and later on, the instrumental crescendos. Amazing.

Reviving this thread with this awesome song I discovered last night when watching "The Losers" (good fun rental - even the wife liked it)

"Through Tears of Joy" by Orchestra Lunatica (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL5re1L_qMU)

As one YouTube commenter said:

I feel like I just fought a long and intense battle and now I'm floating in the voidness of space before returning through the Earth's atmosphere in a fire ball of light.

"Whiskey Lullaby" by Brad Paisly and Alison Krauss. The first time listening to this song brought me to tears, and i dont even like country music.

Sorry to say, I've been to a Crowder concert and I thought he was a ZZ Top tribute band. His music ain't all that good anyways (Soowy but it's ture) :p

Hillsong is real..... praisy.. I guess. I like that type of music, but they seem to over do it a bit.
