What is the most beautiful song ever for you?

It doesn't have to be your favourite song, I know how hard that's to pick and you don't have to pick only one, but try to limit yourself to 3-5 songs.
No need to upload them or anything, I'm just curious.

In no particular order:

The Stranglers - "Golden Brown"
Patrick Wolf - "The Stars"
Neutral Milk Hotel - "Holland, 1945"
The Decemberists - "The Engine Driver"
The Flaming Lips - "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Part 1"
Siouxsie and the Banshees - "Cities in Dust"

Um. I think.

I still love the Libertines' version of "Albion" and Kat Flint's "Dirty Birds" or really anything by her.

The very earlier acoustic version of Maximo Park's Nosebleed. I cry so much while listening to it sometimes, and when I feel really low it gives me this sort of home-feeling.
A Little Lost by Arthur Russell has a similiar effect on me.
Found A Reason by Cat Power just makes me cry, but it's really beautiful.
Then there are other songs like Kate Nash's demo version of Merry Happy, or Maccabees' First Love.

I really have a thing for the kind of sweetish songs that break your heart, you see *lol*

No need to feel sorry, love. You don't know how often things like that happen to me. Any anyway, it's nice to see comments to a post I made a while ago :)
I looove the Les Mouches version of Close to You! 'Tis brilliant!
