I think, 'Imagine' by John Lennon, is the best song ever. At least lyrics are. I can listen to this song, hours, and hours, and hours, and with every time, I like it even more.

For music without lyrics (sounds, instrumental) simply astonishing is Ave Maria by Gheorghe Zamfir or whoever, I can listen to this one also hours. That guy in the song, has amazing flute skills, anyway...

I like the A Perfect Circle version

Hildegard von Bingen's hymns are beautiful, too.

Tears in Heaven by Eric Claption is the best song ever created, it must be the acoustic version though.

Something funny that I just discovered. On page 4 we mentioned "One Tin Soldier" by Coven. I remembered there being this strange song called "Fire", on the flip side of the 45, but I never spotted it on YouTube. I finally dug out the old vinyl and realized that "Fire" was done by a different group - The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Now that seems somewhat rare to me. Does anyone else remember any other 45s having songs by two different bands?
