Or really any of her songs about love/loss/life. 🙂 Over the years she's reminded me just how many ways there are to love. ❤️

(24,100 posts)At times I just don't know
How you could be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you
And you were made for me
And I know that I won't ever change
'Cause we've been friends
Through rain or shine
For such a long, long time
Laughing eyes and smiling face
It seems so lucky just to have the right
Of telling you with all my might
You're beautiful tonight
And I know that you will never stray
'Cause you've been that way
From day to day
For such a long, long time
And when you hold me tight
How could life be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you
And you were made for me
And I know that I won't ever change
'Cause we've been friends
Through rain or shine
For such a long, long time
And I must say it means so much to me
To be the one who's telling you
I'm telling you
That you're beautiful

(18,743 posts)I think I'd pick Fields of Gold/Sting. (I'm a big fan of Shape of My Heart, too.)
Also, various versions of Hallelujah. Mostly the one from the movie Lord of War. Jeff Buckley's version (RIP)

(18,482 posts)"You Didn't Have to Be So Nice," Lovin' Spoonful.
Some of the lyrics are very touching. "You didn't have to be so nice, I would have liked you anyway," and "You came upon a quiet day, you simply seemed to take your place," being two of my favorites.

(76,158 posts)And I Love Her - Beatles
Can't Get It Out Of My Head- ELO
Still, You Turn Me On- ELP
I play all 3 of these.
debm55
(58,015 posts)choice would be - ELP's Still,You Turn Me On. The song has a unique sound to it. Don't get me wrong I like the others, but SYTMO has a mystical feel to it.

(76,158 posts)My version is more like the one Lake did on the live album. Just me and a guitar.
It was written on a 12 string so with my love of 12 string, I had to learn it.

(59,880 posts)With good reason, I suspect, as the artist in question rarely wrote such songs:
It's an old recording, and the lyrics may be a little hard to make out, so here they are:
Morning's rays burn and bathe
Invade and glow
The robins know
But my my joy
Comes not from seeing you
Reflect the morning sun
My joy is to see you dressed in candlelight
To see your face by candlelight
Evening falls, princely balls
Silk and suede
Tailor made
But my joy
Comes not from seeing you
Dressed in royal robes
My joy is to see you dressed in Candlelight
To see your face by candlelight
