I’m always in the lookout for a really emotional song that gives you goosebumps. I currently like ’By your Side’ (Abbey Road Live Version) by Jonas Blue. What’s your favourite beautiful song?

Beautiful Day by 3 Colours Red

Thank you so much for reminding me about 3 colours red. I got rid of my hundreds of indie singles from the 90s, and don’t regret it, but it does mean I’ve forgotten about some songs I’ve absolutely loved in the past.
