Most Beautiful Songs

We had a thread like this going years ago when I was regular...I loved hearing people's suggestions and discovering new, lovely tunes. As much as I love fun music, I also really crave listening to beautiful music. Some of them have lovely melodies, others have moving lyrics, or both. What are some of the most beautiful songs you've ever heard?
  • Fisher - I Will Love You
  • Regina Spektor - Samson
  • Last 5 Years - Nobody Needs to Know
  • Josh Kelly - Almost Honest
  • 'Once' Soundtrack - Falling Slowly
  • Adam Pascal - I'm With You

Ooh! This is a topic I can get behind.

Some of the items from my personal "most beautiful" list:
  • Sunday Morning - The Velvet Underground & Nico
  • Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks
  • Ease Your Feet in the Sea - Belle & Sebastian
  • Here, There and Everywhere - The Beatles
  • Between the Bars - Elliott Smith (a deeply depressing kind of pretty, but pretty all the same)
  • Reflections After Jane - The Clientele

  • Regina Spektor - Laughing with
  • Nerina Pallot - Sophia
  • Oh Laura - Release me
  • Rufus Wainwright - The motion waltz

  • Keren Ann - Not going anywhere

I'm sure there's more that I just can't think of right now.

Rufus Wainwright's cover of Hallelujah definitely comes to mind. Also (No One But You) Only The Good Die Young and The Show Must Go On both by Queen do as well. This is a great topic for a thread.
