Most beautiful songs ever?
Post songs that really touched you. Off the top of my head here are a few I find incredibly beautiful. Some are so powerful that they made me cry. By 'beautiful' I don't necessarily mean depressing, just... beautiful.
Please post some of yours!Sense of Touch from Crash - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqUDeBPTouU Llorando from Mulholland Drive - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIpkMg9sh6Q Enya - Only Time - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0NoHN1TU5I Michelle Tumes - Lovely - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKbruE8SVfU Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EyI4p0yjDQ Cast Away soundtrack - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIAcN3qRAV8 Unbreakable soundtrack - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O0dFH3ysSY Thomas Newman - Any Other Name - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDOXxa1U7Oc A Message from Death Sentence - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l8f0Y9_TFg Can't think of any others right now. |

I think this is going to particularly personal....
I`m not an emotional person as a rule but have heard a few tracks over the years that have made me "blush" as a man..... The Party`s Over - Lime .... |

There's too many but the most recent one which is definitely beautiful is:
Amy Studt - Somebody http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZZv05_6h1M Amy has such sincerity, this song is so sad like alot of her songs!

Kiss from a Rose Seal
Longer Dan Fogelberg-maybe confusing beautiful with pretty here but there is something about the tune and the lyric that really works. |

Des'Ree - Kissing You
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug-ob8XMihs I'll also add: Bird Guhl-Antony and the Johnsons. Always makes me cry when I listen to it. Underneath the Stars-Kate Rusby. As Time Goes By-Billie Holliday. Such a simple arrangement but is extremely poignant and so emotional. Hallelujiah-Jeff Buckley. Obvious Perfect Day-Lou Reed. The saddest and most melanchollic song I've ever heard, makes it incredibly beautiful. Vincent-Don Mclean. Every single word is there for a reason. Fix You-Cantamus. An all girl's choir singing the Coldplay song gives it incredible poignancy and meaning and the harmonies are beautiful in their own right. |

Misguided Ghosts by Paramore
I cried my eyes out the first time I heard this. The music as well as the lyrics, is absolutely beautiful, in my opinion. |

Sigur Rós have a lot of lovely songs. My favourites from them are Untitled 3 and Ára bátur (which is an epic song!)
Bat For Lashes has a lot of really beautiful songs, especially from Fur and Gold, such as Sad Eyes and I Saw A Light (one of my all time favourite songs). Björk, despite her being seen as weird and quirky, has some beautiful songs, such as Jóga, Unravel and much of Vespertine. Then we have the less obvious beautiful songs from Skunk Anansie, such as Hedonism and You'll Follow Me Down. Goldfrapp, especially earlier in their career, with songs like Utopia and Brown Paper Bag. I could go on but I'm off to get drunk!
