One of the most emotional songs ever written...Clapton stopped doing it live some years ago, that's how sad it is.
Tiny Dancer-Elton John
Used to sing it to a daughter I haven't seen for more than a decade.
I Will Always Love You-Dolly Parton
Whitney's version is better known but Dolly's was first. No vocal gymnastics just alotta feeling.
Free Bird-Lynyrd Skynyrd
My age is showing...it's too bad this became something of a white trash joke... really it's beautifully timeless.

It only takes the first few cords and I'm right back at that uncomfortable age.

That song came out when I was around 11 or 12, it always affected me, I thought it was the saddest thing ever written. Even today when I hear it it hasent lost any of its power to create emotion.
