Soulful Bonnie at her best:

Saw her a few days ago here in San Diego. Great show. I was surprised at how excellent a guitarist she is.

 

[Ozimoto]

This one can evoke strong emotions for people separated by oceans in the service of their country.

 

[Ozimoto]

This one can promote peace or regret depending on your frame of mind at the time...

A song about loss of loved ones and the desire/ quest to find them.

When someone I was very close to died several years ago, his wife asked me if I could think of an appropriate song for his wake. He was always feeling trapped in a job, and I thought of this one.

Bruce Cockburn: What beautiful guitar work:

 

[Bigboote]

Oh, if we're talking Bruce Cockburn as we seem to be, this is my favorite strong-emotion song from him. Homme Brulant, or Burning Man. Geez, I could put it the live thread too.

[RockyMTblue2]

Bruce Springsteen is good, but this man is the troubadour of my generation.

 

[Scud49]

Probably my most favorite Bonnie Raitt song:

 

[Bigboote]

I always forget about this song. Nemesea started out as a gothic metal band, went into electronica, then their original lead singer, whom I dearly loved, decided she wanted to teach voice to kids full time. This has the "new" lead singer. I find this song absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking.
