I think "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera is just about perfect! I LOVE that song! I can listen to it over and over!

Any favorites you would like to mention?

I cant name just one---

"I Will Always Love You" - written by Dolly Parton and sung by Whitney Houston.

"I Believe" - Brooks and Dunn - vocal by Ronnie Dunn

Many others, but those are the two that came to mind at the moment!

There are so many but I have always enjoyed Bye-Bye Miss America Pie -- no idea why.

I'm a closeted opera geek and IMO there is not a more beautiful aria than Puccini's Nessun Dorma. There are many outstanding renditions but Pavarotti did it like no one else. Even if you are not a fan of opera you know this song as it has been in many movies.

For one, Kiss Today Goodbye (What I did for love) from A Chorus Line.

Kiss today goodbye,
The sweetness and the sorrow.
Wish me luck, the same to you.
But I can't regret
What I did for love, what I did for love.
Look my eyes are dry.
The gift was ours to borrow.
It's as if we always knew,
And I won't forget what I did for love,
What I did for love.
Gone,
Love is never gone.
As we travel on,
Love's what we'll remember.
Kiss today goodbye,
And point me t'ward tomorrow.
We did what we had to do.
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for
Love

What a Wonderful World. I sing it in the shower several nights a week. I think my version is pretty good. Lol!

One that comes to mind is AT LAST, by Etta James. For me, a lot of songs by Cole Porter fall into the perfect category, as well as long as Linda Ronstadt is singing them. Had to edit to include her name.

""The Dance""

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd have had to miss the dance
