Beautiful songs

To Build A Home by The Cinematic Orchestra, Beyoncé’s Ave Maria and Jeff Buckley’s Hallelujah are, in my opinion, just beautiful songs. I’m sat with a glass of wine and Alexa. What are your favourite beautiful songs that should be added to the beautiful songs playlist of the evening? Smile

Lots of good suggestions already, the one that gets me every time is love of my life by Queen, my grandma chose it for my grandpa's funeral, the band had lots of personal memories for them and the lyrics seemed to really resonated with the pain, grief and anger when someone you love so completely dies before you do
