In no particular order:
Simon and Garfunkels "Bridge Over Troubled Water"
Always makes me feel like everything's gonna be ok no matter what.

Billy Joels "Innocent Man"
Always makes me feel like everything is gonna be ok when I'm havin' woman problems.

Joaquin Rodrigo/ The Adagio from the "Concerto de Aranjuez"
Sad, bitter sweet,cerebral,intensely sexual, but hopeful as well. This works on so many emotions and I never tire of it. Julian Breem does this piece exceptionaly well. However, Christopher Parkening's performance is absolutely astonishing.
