I'll start.

Céline Dion - Fly

Bloody hell, what a song. I only just discovered it today. The feel of the song and the lyrics are out of this world. Truly amazing. And extremely comforting if you've been through a child loss. Listen if you have the time Thanks

On a lighter note, Let's here it for the boy - Deniece Williams Grin

Patti La Belle and Michael McDonald -On My Own

Igotmylipstickon Northwinds is such a fabulous album, am not surprised though that so far we are the only ones who have heard of it / like it!! I think most people will be thinking of David Coverdale with big hair and silly tight trousers. Such a shame as every track on that album is just brilliant. My favourites change all the time but I love the beautiful love song Time and again and the gospel vibe on Give me Kindness. I hope some MNers give it a go!

Oooh, really good thread, so many good ones.

I second 'The River', and 'Coming Around Again' and of course Wham, 'Like a Baby', that was always one of my faves.

Have a real soft spot for Joshua Kaddison, 'Jessie'
