Oh Elliott Smith. Great songwriter bested by his demons. His songs are oozing with that heartfelt stuff that speaks from one lonely soul to another. Good song. (via Amazon)

ANTONY & THE JOHNSONS: The Lake: MP3 Downloads

First to recommend

Description

I own this album and I've heard this song a million times. I couldn't tell you what it's about though because every time I hear it I'm too busy picking pieces of my heart off the floor. I've said it before and I'll say it again- Antony's voice in mythical and utterly enchanting. THis is what my brother calls "sad bastard music". (via Amazon)

VAN MORRISON: Into The Mystic: MP3 Downloads

First to recommend

Description

BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! (I'm shaking you by the shoulders uncontrollably) One of my favorite songs of all time. I will go as far as to say one of the best songs in the galaxy. I want to fly off into the afterlife on the back of a white dragon leaving glitter in my wake while this song playing. (via Amazon)

Welcome to the Cruel World: Ben Harper: Music

Description

I'm not a Ben Harper fan...at all (and I've tried), but I do like this song. Its not a great song lyrically or melodically but it hits me just right when I've been dwelling on past loves. (via Ama)
