[Eggyman]

AH, another, "I can't believe I forgot that".
What a perfect song.

I've smacked my forehead a couple of times after seeing what people have put. I'd say 'Karma Police', too, now we're on the subject of Radiohead (although the one previously mentioned is more deserved, I think).

Here's another: 'The Killing Moon' - Echo and the Bunnymen.

"She's Leaving Home" - The Beatles
"Reflection" - Christina Aguilera
"What Does Your Soul Look Like? (Part 4)" - DJ Shadow

And some good rap ballads:
"Song Cry" - Jay-Z
Handful of tracks from ATLiens and Aquemini - OutKast

 

[Poetic Chaos]

my favorite rap ballad would be Life Goes On by Tupac

 

[Mister J]

'The Wind Cries Mary' -- that's a great choice, Mr J

Thanks eggy.

Although, I must admit, I was going for a few laughs with the inclusion of the Lassie theme. Sometimes, I try too hard. *shrugs*
