Most poignant song ever?

Question

My vote goes to Kansas'
'Dust In The Wind'

'Imagine' is a tie for 1st place,I agree.

Answer 1

"Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. Love the piano and there's something about that song that's so moving.

"I Will Wait For You" by Connie Francis comes in at second. If you ever saw the "Jurassic Bark" episode of Futurama you would understand why I put this up.

Answer 2

Great question- but tough! There are so many great songs with different messages. Here are some of my favorites. If you haven't heard them and you like the message, I'd suggest you DL them!

-Dave Matthews Band's "Pig" (It urges us to live for the now and stop wasting our days away)

-Cat Steven's "Don't Be Shy" (There isn't much lyrics, but the way he sings it sounds so sincere. It urges you to break out and express yourself because you are a somebody.)

-Baz Lurhmann's "Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen" (LOl, I know. It seems weird. But, the messages in the song are so true.)

-Fleetwood Mac's "Gypsy" (When I really listen to the lyrics of this song I almost cry. The "gypsy" in the song is so at peace. She has no fear, she is content with who she is. She dances to her own beat.)

-Foo Fighters "My Hero" (I love the message of this song. Especially when he says, "There goes my hero, he's ordinary." So powerful. A hero is an ordinary person. Not a superhero, not a rockstar, but some one you meet in your own life.)

-Chronic Future's "Time and Time Again" (I love the messages all throughout this song. It tells you to be strong and take chances that you normally wouldn't take before it's too late.)

-Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" (In my opinion, it's about not giving up on hope and love. This song is very powerful.)

- Smashing Pumpkin's "Tonight, Tonight" (Another powerful one. To me, it's about living in the now and to fully appreciate the beauty of the moment.)

Answer 3

Sarah Brightman singing Who Wants To Live Forever. It came about during the death of Princess Diana - and I bought the single and had on hi volume almost constantly. It was incredible.

Answer 5

It may sound a little bizarre but Natasha Beddingfield's "Unwritten" It made me realise that despite whatever may have happened in a person's life up until now, the rest of life hasn't happened yet and we can do our best to change circumstances we are unhappy with!

Answer 6

Don't really know if this would qualify, it certainly wont compete with Imagine etc, but one that really hits home for me is Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve.

Answer 7

H'mm.
Jerry & the Pacemakers - Walk on with hope in your heart
Dustin Gledhill - One voice
Daniel O'Donnell - Be not afraid
Michael McClean - You're not alone
