Dance me to the end of love Leonard Cohen
(wasn't sure whether to include as it is about Jacques Stroumsa and the holocaust but Cohen said ''it’s not important that anybody knows the genesis of it, because if the language comes from that passionate resource, it will be able to embrace all passionate activity.'')

Gabriel, by Lamb, always makes me well up:
