The Luckiest gives me chills every time I hear it.

Ben really is an under appreciated songwriter and vocalist, in my opinion.

I've been trying to talk my sister into using The Luckiest in her wedding... could happen.

Donny Hataway's "Someday we'll all be free"

John Lennon "Mother"

World Party - I Felt Back Alone



You don't have to be left alone by someone to feel what this song is about.

He's brilliant. I've seen him in concert twice. He's underrated because of his humor but he's so talented and can write any kind of song. I think Rockin the Suburbs is a perfect cd(if you have the import version with Hiro's Song). I just liked the most recent cd, but there is some excellent stuff on it including Landed, which is such an original sentiment for a pop song. He's a unique talent, imo.

I'm glad to see that some people from the org listen to him.. I always felt that not enough people hear his music.. I'm really glad I caught up with his music, i would have been sad to miss out on it.

"sometimes you make me smile" Floetry

its not ususally "sad" songs that exactly would make me cry..

those songs that conjur up moments that mean the most to me.. usually thats what it takes..

Garth Brooks, The Dance.

Ben Folds gets me. That live version of Jane is sweet.

Sadie- the spinners

In a world like today
Its a rare occasion to be able
To see young mothers like the ones
That were around when I grew up
But they live on in memory
To quite a few of us
And this song is dedicated
To those who cherish that memory

Early one Sunday morning
Breakfast was on the table
There was no time to eat
She said to me, Boy, hurry to Sunday school

Filled with her load of glory
We learned the Holy story
Shell always have her dreams
Despite the things this troubled world can bring

Oh, Sadie
Dont you know we love you
Sweet Sadie
Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie (Well, well, well)
Living in the past
Some times it seems so funny
But no money will turn your life around

Sweeter than cotton candy
Stronger than papas old brandy
Always that needed smile
Once in awhile she would break down and cry

Some times shed be so happy
Just being with us and daddy
Standing the worst of times
Breaking the binds with just a simple song

Oh, Sadie (Oh, Sadie, baby)
Dont you know we love you (Shell love us all in a special way)
Sweet Sadie (Well, well, well)
Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie (Sweet Sadie livin in the past)
Living in the past
Oh, shes never sinnin
In love shes always winnin, yeah

Sadie (My, my, my, my, my)
Dont you know we love you (I love you, mama)
Sweet Sadie
Place no one above you (I just cant forget)

Sweet Sadie (How you gave me love, oh, Lord)
Living in the past
If theres a heaven up above
I know shes teaching angels how to love

Sadie (Its a mean world without you)
Dont you know we love you
Sweet Sadie (All the love you showed)
Place no one above you

i cant make you love me- Bonnie Raitt

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don’t patronize - don’t patronize me

Chorus: cause I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
Here in the dark, in these lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no you won’t
’cause I can’t make you love me, if you don’t

I’ll close my eyes, then I won’t see
The love you don’t feel when you’re holding me
Morning will come and I’ll do what’s right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
Chorus: cause I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
Here in the dark, in these lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no you won’t
’cause I can’t make you love me, if you don’t

Very good choice!

I´d add:
Terence Trent Darby-If You Go Before Me
Pink Floyd-Hey You
Coldplay-Trouble
Heather Nova-Island
Gene-Save Me, I´m Yours
Radiohead-Exit Music (For A Film)

and:
Morrissey-Seasick, Yet Still Docked
I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where
I intended to go
Scavenging through life’s very constant lulls
So far from where I’m determined to go

Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love
There is no way ...
I wish I had the charm to attract the one I love
But you see, I’ve got no charm
Oh ...

Tonight I’ve consumed much more than I can hold
Oh, this is very clear to you
And you can tell I have never really loved
You can tell, by the way, I sleep all day

And all of my life no-one gave me anything
No-one has ever given me anything, ah ...
My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye
You must be such a fool
To pass me by

I bet Charlotte is a cutey when she crys..lol
