Secular: Maybe Someday by Simply Red
Christian: Why by Nichole Nordeman0 -
Okay... my roommate does opera, so I recently discovered that I harbored a wrenching love for the opera song "Les chemins de l'amour" yesterday, as I accompanied her (rather poorly) on the melodica.
Others:
Hey Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken: Camera Obscura
Let's Go for a Walk: Of Montreal
Every Time I Go Around (Here): Frank Black
Shangri-La: The Kinks
Here, There, and Everywhere: Beatles
Wrapped up in Books: Belle and Sebastian (heck, all of their music is shockingly beautiful)
She's Not There: The Zombies
These are not necessarily my FAVORITE songs by these bands (although they're up there!) but are songs I consider to have an unabashedly pretty aesthetic.
Also, my boyfriend's band, Sally, has some darn pretty music. I designed the website too
www.sallyband.com
Yeah, I'll pretty much agree with all of this
Lloyd I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken is sooooo very very very nice!

Poison and Wine

They've got amazing covers of The Smashing Pumpkin's Disarm

and (please forgive me, but I don't know who originally did this one) Dance Me to the End of Love .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsK0mx_NoFw
I have been REALLY into the Civil Wars lately. Poison and Wine is haunting. Some other favorites of this type of music that have a build up are:
The Cinematic Orchestra - To Build a Home
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QB0ordd2nOI
Mumford and Sons - White Blank Page
Manchester Orchestra - I can Feel a Hot One

How the hell did I forget about Let Down? That is an incredibly beautiful song, I enjoy their later stuff n all but I don't think they'll ever beat that song just for sheer beauty.0 -

Pachabel's Cannon in D and George Winston's Colors are beautiful musically, though they don't represent music I typically listen to. Lyrically I like "I hope you dance"'.0
