Beautiful songs

Lil Wayne, Something you forgot

From The Mission...

Gabriel's Oboe - Ennio Morricone
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L41oGXgVmZg&feature=related

and this from Hannibal always sends a shiver down my spine. It always amazes me that it's not a piece of classical opera - it's so timeless...

Vide Cor Meum - Patrick Cassidy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFB3PbD4-Lk

moment of surrender, U2.

my sweet lord, george harrison.

Please please let me get what I want - The Smiths. people forget how stunning some of their songs are

^ can't agree enough with that.

when somebody loved me, sarah Mclachlan.

Spaccanapoli vesuvio. . . .

fall at your feet, crowded house.

needles and pins, the farm.

obvious but Greensleeves is a beautiful song- there is a version on youtube sang by a woman in medieval dress sat next to a minstrel type bloke (ignore him and even her!) and listen tot he voice and tune

you raise me up, secret garden (nice).

Two cheesy classical ones:

Por Ti Volare - Andrea Bocelli (used in Stepbrothers (boats n' ho's etc)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZl0kBlGTc8

Nessun Dorma (from Turandot) - Puccini/Pavarotti
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4nuLdeNqdY

and a non-cheesy one. One to just shut your eyes and let wash over you.

Kyrie from Missa Papae Marcelli - Palestrina
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y28ZRYF9Q-4

If it wasn't for the beauty (and supposed devotion) of works by Palestrina and a couple of his contempories, the Council of Trent would probably have banned polyphony and only have allowed plainsong to be performed in religious buildings, which would have completely changed the face of classical music, and by extension, most European music.

now we are free, hans zimmer. ( sound track from the gladiator).

Marlene Dietrich's German version of "Where have all the flowers gone"
