ever heard a song that was so amazingly great that you just had to freeze the whole time and listen to it? like if you moved or took a breath the amazingness would disappear and it would never come back?
i mean there's Revolution 9 by the Beatles- it's so weird and scary and stuff that you're afraid to do anything else until after it's over

Ray Charles, I Can't Stop Loving You
Ray Charles, Georgia
Bob Dylan, Highway 61 Revisited - entire album
Jean Grae - Love song
Oh man this song is beautiful, she's like one of the most lyrical musicians you will ever come across. And the production just seems to fit too perfectly with her voice, it's just a beautiful song

Bobby 'Blue' Bland's take of "They call it Stormy Monday"
'Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground' -Blind Willie Johnson
