Mine off the top of my head are rather obvious but there you have it

 

What a wonderful world - louis armstrong 

Lanterns of hope - kj

Imagine - john lennon

Man's world - james brown

Harvest moon - neil young

How soon is now - smiths

Fly me to the moon (in other words) - frank Sinatra

Beethoven's 9th

 

And any ole group of wolves howling in a forest

Okay, here's my tearjerking contribution:

 

The Smiths- I Know It's Over (preferably the live version from Rank)

Richard Thompson- Beeswing, King of Bohemia, Walking On A Wire (w/ Linda
Thompson)

John Cale's version of Hallelujah (my heart broke when the X-Factor starting
using it). And yes, Cale's version is superior to Jeff Buckley's.

Rolling Stones- Wild Horses, Shine A Light

Gary Jules' version of Mad World

The Cure- Love Song (half of the other tracks off Disintegration, too)

Joy Division- In A Lonely Place

 

There's others, but that's what I came up with off the top of my head.

 

Jim.
