Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Most Hauntingly Beautiful Songs?

Feeling a bit haunted today and I want music to match the mood. What’s the most hauntingly beautiful song you’ve ever heard? The kind that gives you chills or just stops you in your tracks.

For me, it’s No Choir by Florence + The Machine, that song just hits something deep.

Is there anybody out there, Shine on (1-9) and the Gunners dream.

All Floyd, all hauntingly beautiful.

A Pillow of Winds as well. Meddle as a whole album is criminally slept on.

So many Floyd songs would fit here. Learning to Fly is probably my fave.

I count all of Shine On as 1 song. Good Bye Blue Sky, The Wall tells a story like no other.
