Songs that Inspire or Move you


After all, it's all about the music. There are certain songs that no matter how many times I hear them, they still move me. Just wanted to know some of your favorites. Doesn't necessarily have to be spiritual or gospel, but just very honest and real sounding. Here are some of my favorites.
Redemption Song-Bob Marley
Peace in the Valley-Johnny Cash at San Quentin
U R Loved-Victoria Williams
Nothing Compares to you-Toussant MCall
Dearest-Buddy Holly
May Peace find you tonight-Reckless Kelly

Reminds me of Karl Haas and "adventures in good music". I loved that program on npr and learned more about classical music there than anywhere else that can recall. Also look up the word gentleman and Mr haas' photo might appear.
I've had stages in life where little music moved me. Lots of things can contribute to that. But I have been into audio now for so many years only for that reason ie in order to be affected by the music as much as possible.
like the Ed and jfc version of love is the answer a lot. That was the hit
version I believe?

edajfc was a soft rock act and got a bum rap from the serious rock music
crowd back then. They had a lot of great tunes that were hits.

Crosby stills and Nash were considered cool however.
A little heady but one for the vine by genesis is playing now. That's always affected me. Both the story and the music.
