I still love this song. It's too bad they're such lousy singers live. They really know how to write songs.

So many excellent choices on this list. Some of my favorites are listed below. I tried to only list those I haven't already seen on here, but I apologize if there are duplicates:

First a couple of classics:
Eleanor Rigby - the Beatles
Hallelujah - by about a gazillion people, but I love Jeff Buckley and kd lang's versions.


Mary Chapin Carpenter's Ten Thousand Miles:

Jonatha Brooke wrote Time when her mom was in hospice. She compiled some songs into a play, but her song itself starts at about 1:15. I first heard it after my mom's death, and it can still make me cry.

Don't know if this is what you're looking for but I love Queen Jane from the movie inside Llewellen Davis. So moving.

Thank you. He passed this morning. I truly appreciate your kind words. I’m raw right now, but these songs will help me get through the next long while. Take care.
