20 Most Beautiful Songs I've Ever Heard

Behold!! The TWENTY most beautifully written and performed songs so far! Breathtaking music! Enchanting lyrics! Take note on the word "BEAUTIFUL" --- These songs are not rockin' or poppy. Not the ones you'll exclaim "RooOoock!" (bangs head) or "What a cute song!" to after listening...

They're just plainly beautiful* and NOT mediocre. Period.

NOTE: This list is solely based on MY personal taste. They're the best I've ever heard. If you don't agree, create your own playlist. Cheers!

*Let me just quote Mr. Brian Vaszily:

Oh, and as to what "beautiful" means? Well, beauty is as always in the eye and ear of the beholder, ...you'll find that "beauty" has tended to fall into one of four categories for those who submitted their choices already:
- Falling in love, being in love, trying to stay in love
- Having loved and then losing it (bittersweet beauty)
- Honoring Moms, Dads, children ... and not heavy brothers
- Giving of yourself, persevering, and holding onto faith and hope

So there... just making sure we're on the same page. Have a rockin' day ahead!
