Do you artless lot want to see a man in the throes of passion, knowing he’s singing one of the most beautiful songs ever written and HE WROTE IT? Well here it is anyway:
Jacques Brel - Ne Me Quitte Pas (1959)
I want you - Elvis Costello
The CDB. 
My favourite version by Johnny Cash. A love song sung by an old man, just sounds so genuine.
Lovely!
Great song!
Aw man! You guys ROCK!
The Doors, “Love Street”
John Fahey, “In Christ There Is No East or West”
The Jefferson Airplane, “Embryonic Journey”
Tim Hardin, “Black Sheep Boy”
Jimi Hendrix, “Little Wing”
The Beatles, “Across the Universe”
Barroom Girls
For Emily
Joe Cocker’s You are So Beautiful
Written by Randy Newman I guess
Elvis Costello’s Good Year For The Roses
Nick Cave Breathless
Leonard Cohen Joan of Arc
Home Thoughts From Abroad
Had to pimp that one.
The Lenny Cohen brought a tear…as did the Issac Hayes and Saddle Tramp.
Lot of good music…no matter what my damn wife says.

Not a Randy Newman song. And bite your tongue.
Elvis Costello’s Good Year For The Roses
Superb!

Good stuff.
Now you lot are WORKING!
How about:
Tom Waits - Yesterday Is Here
Here’s one for Ms Buttercup:
The House Of Love - Christine
If I was going Tom Wait’s I’d be going “Innocent When You Dream”
A fantastic live version of:
REM - Drive (2003)

I wanted to be a little obscure. I love that song. “Time” was also on my list. “Yesterday Is Here” is so haunting, though.
