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?

To Build A Home - The Cinematic Orchestra

My absolute favourite too - such a beautiful song. It was also the song playing when my son was born!

Thank you by Lennon Stella is my favourite at the moment.

Me and Magdalena by the Monkees. It's just lovely.

I'm delightfully surprised to see this mentioned as I think it's gone under the radar but is just SO delicate and moving.

Morning from Peer Gynt by Grieg. Chokes me up every time. It's on my list of music for my funeral.

We played this at my mother in law's funeral, it was a strangely beautiful day in February and really felt right

@AlphaAlpha If we hadn't already been married, that probably would have been our wedding song. (Still love our wedding song too though!).

We Are Going to be Friends by the White Stripes

Autumn Shade by the Vines

The Messenger by Linkin Park

This is quite heartbreaking but also quite beautiful

Sloth66 · 02/07/2022 17:54

Hurting Each Other by the Carpenters. This is 50 years old, but what an amazing vocalist she was.

southlondonerhere · 02/07/2022 18:09

Fast car by Tracy chapman and river flows in you by yiruma

GrouchyKiwi · 02/07/2022 18:17

Into My Arms - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Beautiful Collision - Bic Runga
Rise in Shame by Thomas Dybdahl
Also this version of his song One Day You'll Dance For Me, New York City. The trumpet is something else.

GrouchyKiwi · 02/07/2022 18:19

Also, for the fans of Bridge Over Troubled Water, although no one can touch the original as a whole song, when Josh Groban and Brian McKnight team up it is SO BEAUTIFUL.

VickerishAllsort · 02/07/2022 18:20

Slipping Through My Fingers by ABBA.
A mother watching her daughter grow up, and away. Tearing up and getting goosebumps just thinking about it.

Just Like Fred Astaire - James

It's quite an upbeat tempo but beautiful nonetheless.

This- one of the few songs that makes my soul soar. A beautiful, beautiful song

evilharpy · 02/07/2022 19:03

He's a prick but it's a gorgeous song with beautiful lyrics.

parrotonmyshoulder · 02/07/2022 19:13

Thank you for all of these. I’m standing with Alexa in the kitchen, covered in goosebumps again.

Vincent - Don McLean

parrotonmyshoulder · 02/07/2022 19:14

This is quite heartbreaking but also quite beautiful

Transatlanticism by Death Cab is also gorgeous.

EeeByeGummieBear · 02/07/2022 19:38
