Most achingly-beautiful music


Ultimately, we listen to music to be moved, for example, to be elated, exulted, calmed or pained. Which are the 3 most affecting pieces of music do you find the most affecting?

Oh..so many special moments;
hearing that one track for the first time and then over and over again....

For me some of the most aching (sorry can't list only 3):
1. Portishead - entire record Dummy
2. Hooverponics - Sit Down and Listen...
3. Mark Hollins (ex Talk Talk...if you heard their last album Laughing Stock - you know what I mean...he just continued in that direction of crying music)
4. Some tracks from the 70s; such as Van Der Graaf Generator/ Peter Hammill, Few from Pink Floyd...old Genesis
5. 80s created some of them too; and don't laugh but how about Frankie Goes to Hollywood - The Power of Love, Crowded House, etc... (too many individual tracks to list)
