So, I've three that immediately sprang to mind:

The first classical song that really captured me - The Lark Ascending

A song that, though not excellent, burns in my back - All Fires

And finally, one I'm glad never leaves - Rose Hip November

While I was checking their names, I realized that an honorable mention has to go to Judee Sill. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323693#Comment_323693 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323693#Comment_323693 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:19:11 -0800 Ben Gwalchmai
@RenThing - have you ever seen Richard Thompson live at a folk festival? He's surprising.

A Silver Mt Zion. Their music is unbelievably sad and beautiful. Born Into Trouble As The Sparks Fly Upward breaks my heart with each listen.



Ludovico Einaudi.



Sigur Ros' ( ) is unlike anything else they've released and it's one of my favourite ever albums. Sparse, minimal and haunting.



I don't want to spam with links so I will finish by just mentioning Stars of the Lid. Wonderful droney wondrousness. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323700#Comment_323700 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323700#Comment_323700 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:21:26 -0800 lampcommander
Hallelujah - I prefer the Jeff Buckley version


Miss Misery - Elliott Smith


Hard Time Killin' Floor Blues - Chris Thomas King version


Kind-Hearted Woman - Robert Johnson. Pretty much any RJ is haunting, though.

I remember this tune rolling around in my head for years before I eventually found where it was from (probably heard it on TV sometime when I was a kid). Works like gangbusters.

So for the request at least half if not more of Dead Can Dance's discography suits but I'll go with the one that has struck me deepest and longest. It's a poem, what 200 years old now? And I didn't know that until just a couple of years ago. I just thought Lisa Gerard was singing about the lovely Irish countryside for which her protagonist chose to fight, even as it became soaked in blood. Now that I think about those haphazard barely fields as the gravemarkers of rebels from years earlier my heart breaks all over again "when e'er I think on Ireland dearly." And I've never been!

The video is supposed to go here but it never does! ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323889#Comment_323889 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323889#Comment_323889 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:09:35 -0800 Purple Wyrm

Song of the Sibyl

To quote Wikipedia - The Song of the Sibyl is a liturgical drama and a Gregorian chant, the lyrics of which compose a prophecy describing the Apocalypse, which has been performed at some churches of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain) and L'Alguer or Alghero (Sardinia, Italy) in Catalan language on Christmas Eve nearly uninterrruptedly since medieval times. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323890#Comment_323890 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10487&Focus=323890#Comment_323890 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:21:54 -0800 Cat Vincent The Fountain continues to define this category for me.
