Lost on you by LP. Could listen to that on repeat all day.
One of my favourites too ❤️❤️

Something Inside So Strong

Getafuckinggripman · 08/06/2021 08:26

Well out of everything listed so far I too love Sit Down by James.

But out of lifelong loyalty to MJ I'm going to have to stick with Man In The Mirror

I will always love you, Dolly Parton (definitely not Whitney’s version).

I've already had my go but this is a great favourite of mine - the DP version..
Maybe it's because she wrote this song that she's puts such feeling into it.

There are some brilliant suggestions on here to make playlists!

I do love Turn the Page but Metallicas version.

LeanneBrownsLonelyBraincell · 08/06/2021 18:55

Together in electric dreams, Phil Oakley and Georgio Moroder

Oh yes, this song just speaks to me.

Adding all of these to a playlist as off on a trip so plenty to listen to.

I love "fade into you" muzzy star

funnyoldonion · 14/06/2021 07:48

Gone away The offspring .
Gosh it’s hard to pick just 1 song!
Someone upthread said “your song” by Elton. Definitely one of my favourites but was played at my dads funeral while showing his pictures and I’m still not ready to listen to it again!

Babyroobs · 14/06/2021 08:06

Something changed by Pulp.

Elderflower14 · 14/06/2021 08:30

Shiny Happy People by REM..
Ds2 is profoundly deaf... I bought the Out Of Time CD, the minute it arrived I put SHP on. Ds2 felt the vibrations of the music and came running down and started dancing. The first time he had done this.. A very special moment.. 💙

MerryInthechelseahotel · 14/06/2021 20:22

It's too hard!!! I love any of Leonard Cohen but what about Van Morrison Brown eyed girl!
Also @D0D0 I loved that version of sounds of silence. Have you heard the version by Disturbed. It's very intense and I love it! If you listen to it watch the video.
