Be it the music or the lyrics or the singers voice, what song/s stop you in your tracks every time? Mine are:

Don McLean – Vincent. The lyrics get me every time

Rose Royce – Wishing on a Star. Her voice is ethereal

Summersett – I am Comin’ Over. The lyrics have a really sad twist right at the end and the song itself is so moving. Such an amazing duo and so incredibly underrated

    Portishead – Glory Box.

  5. Elvis’ If I Can Dream and Suspicious Minds.

    The originals are fantastic but there are versions with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra which are just amazing.

    (not beautiful but the version of Burning Love with the RPO is absolutely brilliant)

  12. Elgar’s First Symphony is fucking amazing. I never listened to classical until a year ago. I love it now. Am I old?

  13. Daysleeper – REM

    “I cried the other night

    I can’t even say why

    Fluorescent flat caffeine lights

    It’s furious balancing

    I am the screen, the blinding light

    I’m the screen, I work at night

    I see today with a newsprint fray

    My night is coloured headache grey

    Don’t wake me with so much”
