That reminds me another contender is Jeff Buckley - Nighmares by the Sea. another hauntingly beautiful song.

Family Tradition - Hank Williams Jr.
Hey You - Pink Floyd

"Deliver me" Sarah M.

"Silence" Sarah M.

Most beautiful country song nowadays would have to be "If Heaven" by Andy Griggs.

from the movie the truman show:

'father kolbe's preaching' by wojciech kilar.

so simple, so beautiful.

"Imagine" by John Lennon really brings a tear to my eye.


Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.
Writen by: John Lennon

Of all the Jeff Buckley songs that are beautiful, for me it's gotta be Forget Her.

The time that made even more special was when I was on a trip down to Italy, and it was dusk, going past Mount Vesuvius. It was an amazing sight, and the song just seemed so right for the moment

Last Resort by The Eagles

This Christmas by Donny Hathaway

Its my most beautiful song because whenever I hear it I know its Christmas time and it reminds me of my grandfather's kisses and every Christmas passed. I can just taste the season. The first time I hear it every year...its just perfect.

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

.

Angel by Sarah McLachlan is, for me, the most beautiful song in the world for sentimental reasons.

I also have to agree with Hallelujah and My Immortal and throw in If God Will Send His Angels by U2.

Candle in the Wind: by Sir Elton John.

I would vote for Santana's "Samba Pa Ti" released on their 2nd album "Abraxas" from 1970. It is without a doubt the most beautiful guitar solo I have heard...and yes, santana has been around for quite some time since before "supernatural" heh..I would suggest checking his older music out.

Probably a close 2nd would be "Julia Dream" by Pink Floyd, a typically less known song by them that was held back from its original release, as the band didn't like it. But it has the most peaceful, beautiful, simple acoustic fingerpicking, and dreamy vocals and flute that just make it a very beautiful song.

The Dance by the one and only Garth Brooks. This song is beatiful because it helps you remember something good that happened to a person. In the video he did for it, he reflected on events that have had an affect on mankind. I mean from The Kennedy Assasination to then the MLK Assassination. As for times like what we live in now, 9-11 could be included in this.

"in Space" by Royksopp.

Perhaps "fade to black as well".

"Neverland" by Marillion

The Bridge by John Coltrane
