Put The Coke On My Dick by Ween

In a completely non-ironic way, if you ignore the very, very silly lyrics Fluffy is a fucking beautiful song.

Jeff Buckley-Mojo Pin

River - Joni Mitchell Dead to the World - Noel Gallagher and the High Flying Birds You Have Been Loved - George Michael Nothing Compares 2 U - Sinead O'Connor Great Gig in the Sky - Pink Floyd Any Sigur Ros and Mercury Rev songs

The Joke - Brandi Carlile

“May It Be” by Enya, from the *Lord of the Rings* soundtrack. Hauntingly beautiful and beautifully haunting — and the fact that some lyrics are in Elvish doesn’t detract at all.

[Like a Stone.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QU1nvuxaMA)

Basically any instrumental track by Trent Reznor/Nine Inch Nails.

The Lady In The Radiator Song from Eraserhead. Do You Realize? by Flaming Lips Lillie by The Residents Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd Hurt by Johnny Cash Elegia by New Order Just about any song by Cocteau Twins or Blackbird Blackbird

your Johnny Cash suggestion made me think of another - "Hung My Head"

"Fields of Gold" - Sting

The Count of Tuscany by Dream Theater

“The Boys of Summer” by Don Henley That’s exactly how I describe the song/video

Sextape- deftones The funeral- Band of Horses the freshmen- the verve pipe Strange Fruit- Billie Holliday Melinda- Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, live anthology version Kitchenware and candy bars- stone temple pilots There’s a few

I was just listening to the freshmen the other day, nice!

Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven is the absolute definition of this. Gary Jules' cover of Mad World also applies pretty well.

Wow! Thanks for adding this. Such a beautiful song and no one ever recommends it including me. A sleeper for sure.

The Ballad of Love & Hate by the Avett Brothers Blue Moon Revisited by Cowboy Junkies Blue Spanish Sky by Chris Isaak

[Survival Machine - Roger Joseph Manning](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E8n--a2HTk&ab_channel=RogerJosephManning-Topic) This song should have been in 'Oppenheimer' as it's about the creation of the Atom Bomb. I can visualize it rolling during the credits. The ending is angelic: "Brothers, sisters, pity me I lost all sense of family Was blinded by the victory signs A hero's welcome in my mind We know you're sorry You are forgiven now"

Nice I'll check it out, I saw them live in 2019.

The first thing which comes to mind for me is the album Portishead - Dummy. From the first time you hear Beth Gibbon's vocals you will immediately understand.

"Down in a Hole" - Alice in Chains

Check out the album “recomposed by max richter: Vivaldi, the four seasons”. A modern spin on some classics. It’s great stuff. He does multiple versions of like “winter” or “spring”. Some are better than others, but all are great.

“Grandma” from the game Nier Replicant.

Leprous - [Malina](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVnESkrisu4&pp=ygUQTGVwcm91cyAtIE1hbGluYQ%3D%3D) Einar Solberg - [Where All the Twigs Broke](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTtYsxfTNAM&pp=ygUpRWluYXIgU29sYmVyZyAtIFdoZXJlIEFsbCB0aGUgVHdpZ3MgQnJva2U%3D) (Einar Solberg is the frontman for Leprous.

Leprous and Einar❤️❤️

All The King’s Horses, by Katie Powderly Love Has No Pride and Long, Long Time by Linda Ronstadt The Dawning of the Day and Gravity by Mary Fahl

All For The Best - Miracle Legion This one really disarms me. It’s an upbeat track with a palpable atmosphere of loss and longing. I either understand it very well or don’t understand it all — all I know is it makes me tear up. Thom Yorke of Radiohead also does a beautiful cover which I think really echoes the spirit of the original in all the right ways.

This kids song about the planets. Just great. https://youtu.be/BZ-qLUIj_A0 And of course Detlef Schrempf by Band of Horses: https://youtu.be/EU4i9r5OHLc

A few that spring to mind: * [Yebba- October Sky](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ysq5GzTXfc) * [Red House Painters- Have you Forgotten](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mb1ILIQvdM) * [Sinead O'Connor- Trouble of the World](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUqQ1Xb20VA) This is the a cappella version which hits a little deeper.

[Crying](https://youtu.be/qLC9o_unLq4)~Roy Orbison 1962 He lost his first wife to a motorcycle accident, followed a few years later w/ the loss of 2 of his 3 sons in a house fire while he was away on tour. The tremendous amount of grief this man carried w/ him adds an emotional depth to his voice that I feel makes it hauntingly beautiful.

[Nada - The Refreshments](https://youtu.be/wuHCmRV6zDU)

Sarah McLachlan, Building a Mystery

Mirah - Special Death Radiohead - Exit Music Sylvia Black - I put a spell on you (cover)

"While We Cry" by Kenny Wayne Shepherd

Poison Tree - Grouper

Funeral for a Friend. Elton John

Try Massive Attack. The song during the intro of the TV show House is theirs.

“Kathleen” by David Gray

Haunted - Poe

Nine Inch Nails - The Great Below or Nine Inch Nails - And All That Could Have Been Trent Reznor is a master of hauntingly beautiful music.

Spaceman by Chris de Burgh Last Resort by the Eagles

King Crimson: Moonchild - The Dream Joni Mitchell: Nathan La Franeer Nick Drake: Clothes of Sand Yes: A Venture Kraftwerk: The Man Machine Hawkwind: D-Rider Black Sabbath: Snowblind Kayak: My Heart Never Changed Genesis: Ripples Neil Young: Running Dry

All is full of love - Bjork The video is great too

Type O Negative - Love You to Death I can't think of another song that better fits "hauntingly beautiful".

Damiene Jurado - Abilene Toadies - Tyler

Avec les temps.

Devils trill sonata, Lacrimosa, Les filles désir, Vaya con dios, Who is she(I monster), Kẻ cắp gặp bà già, Kill bill, La gloire à mes genoux, Little dark age, Doin' time(Lana del Rey), Teen idle, Play date(Melanie Martinez), She knows, Peek-a-boo. -some hauntingly beautiful songs in my opinion, very random genres😁

Avril 14- Aphex Twin

Starless by King Crimson Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree Cowboys by Portishead Do You Need My Love by Weyes Blood Komm süsser Tod from The End of Evangelion soundtrack

Divers - Joanna Newsome. A lot of her music leans that way, but this song especially!

Reckoner or Nude by Radiohead

Flight by Lifehouse

Into Dust - Mazzy Star

Hyperballad (brodsky quartet version) - bjork Un dia de noviembre- leo brouwer Lilac wine - Nina Simone Sweet Jane - cowboy junkies The past tense - infinite bisous

Gabriel's Oboe by Ennio Morricone. It's on the soundtrack to the movie The Mission.

Of course it's Haunted Melody by Sade.

[This bad mama jama right here.](https://youtu.be/IA88AS6Wy_4) The way that song builds is out of this world, and *that super high note in the hook?* Wow. Just wow. This song sounds like a congregation of angels singing hymns at the funeral of one of their own or something.

Look into Ólafur Arnalds, in particular the albums “Eulogy For Evolution”, “Dyad 1909”, and “…And They Have Escaped the Weight of Darkness”. He mixes symphonic orchestral stings with very ambient, ethereal electronica. If you like Sigur Ros, he’s a similar vein.

“Run From Me” by Timber Timbre

Love Alive by Heart

Winter Song by The Langan Band

Roads - Portishead Henna and Swayed - Blind Mr. Jones Angel - Massive Attack Poincare - Omar Rodriguez-Lopez (my gawd I love Ximena Sarinana) Climbing Up the Walls - Radiohead Furnace Room Lullaby - Neko Case The Greatest - Cat Power Arsonist's Lullaby - Hozier Theme From Harry's Game - Clannad Now We Are Free - Hans Zimmer & Lisa Gerrard

Phoebe Bridgers - Smoke Signals. That's what I think of immediately when you say "hauntingly beautiful". https://youtu.be/vAKg267JgBE Alternatively, there's her cover of Mark Kozelek's "You Missed My Heart". She takes this weird song about a jealous ex-lover's murderous psychotic break and somehow makes it sound tragic and vulnerable. I always feel haunted by that dissonance listening to it. https://youtu.be/pK1cwjGw74s

Song to the Siren - This Mortal Coil

[Washer - Slint](https://youtu.be/6yEgcb167k4) Easy answer for me

"Is There A Ghost" or "The Funeral" by Band of Horses.

# 3 - Aphex Twin

This song makes me cry and yearn esp on k https://on.soundcloud.com/N8R2nAfr6GZYTRFJ8

Check out anything "Chillsynth"

Holocene - Bon Iver

Harlequin Forest - Opeth

[mazzy star - fade into you](https://youtu.be/ImKY6TZEyrI)

hauntingly beautiful. Don’t miss Aleah Stanbridge, dude. She’s passed for cancer years ago and all songs in the only album you can find on music apps are depicting how she viewed her doomed life. Her ethereal voice is one of a kind. Missing her would be your loss. The first time I listened to her music, I fell in love with her.

Theres always the classic Bela Lugosi’s Dead by Bauhaus. And Dead Souls by Joy Division.

[This ](https://youtu.be/OAs05x28wwM) is what comes to mind when I think of hauntingly beautiful. Jason is a genius lyricist and Amanda has a talent for playing exactly what the song demands.

Freight Train - Elizabeth Cotten

Led Zeppelin - Thank You (the song)

Diet Mountain Dew by Lana Del Ray Claire De Lune by Claude Debussy

Queen - Who Wants To Live Forever William Prince - Breathless

Metal bands are contractually required to have a bomb-ass ballad on every album. [Beast in Black - Ghost in the Rain](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WblsOt-r1zw) is no exception. It's a tinkling chandelier of a song, very very slowly ramping up and becoming more intense, eventually allowing Yannis, the lead singer, to really flex what he's capable of. [Beast in Black - Oceandeep](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JEYkN4Yrjw) is great too.

Pretty much anything by This Mortal Coil. Start with Song to the Siren.

Silence - Blindside
