There's a song called "Cancao Do Mar" (translation: Song Of the Sea) by an artist named Dulce Pontes. If you've ever seen the movie "Primal Fear", you've heard it. (It's also been used on "The Tudors".... and "Final Fantasy VIII") It's in Portugese...... so, for the longest time, I couldn't understand the lyrics.....(until I hunted down a translation)... but, you really don't need to understand it to appreciate the "haunting" quality of the music and the artist's voice

Lyrics:
Canção Do Mar
Fui bailar no meu batel
Além do mar cruel
E o mar bramindo
Diz que eu fui roubar
A luz sem par
Do teu olhar tão lindo
Vem saber se o mar terá razão
Vem cá ver bailar meu coração
Se eu bailar no meu batel
Não vou ao mar cruel
E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar
Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar contigo
Lyrics (translated to English):
SONG Of THE SEA
I was dancing on my little boat
There on the cruel sea
And the sea was crying out to me
Telling me that I should steal
The incomparable light
Of your beautiful eyes
Come and prove that the sea is right
Come here and see my heart dancing
If I'II go dancing on my little boat
I won't go to the cruel sea
I'II tell her that I was singing, smiling,
dancing, living and dreaming of you

Try listening to this song by Enya, named "Exile"

Very haunting in the sense of a love lost from deep within your heart and soul. It grabs you with an intense feeling and does not let go.
Now as to a song that is truly evil and haunting, here is this song from a horror movie. It includes the clip from the movie.

The movie was named Fright Night
Another great song, in the same vein, is...
Fright Night 2 Music Video "Come To Me" Deborah Holland

If you mean that haunts me night and day for the last week or more, it is "And When I Die" by Blood, Sweat and Tears. You can hear it on my Mash page if you can find your way to it. Let me try to get a URL for it.

Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley....especially with the almost imperceptable sigh before the song begins....almost as if he's putting every last drop of his emotion into the song...
Sadly, Buckley drowned in 1997...

9 Crimes by Damien Rice. Kind of a haunting video, too.
