[“Mull of Kintyre”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2Y6xFOPPW0) makes me feel homesick (And I’m not even Scottish…)

“The Perfect Song” (Amos & Andy theme). Not really sure if perfect is better than best, though.

“Amazing Grace” is a song both simulteneously theologically rich by depicting the Christian life, and is aesthetically beautiful: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhc7MEYY-Ho](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhc7MEYY-Ho)

“Morgen Muss Mein Schatz” is a pure delight to listen to, with a cheerful, and upbeat tune: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhc7MEYY-Ho](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhc7MEYY-Ho)
