Beautiful Piano Melodies and Singing

yuichi

I can't stress enough how much I love songs that have beautiful piano melodies. Ones that get me every time are:

Beatles- In My Life[/b] (that piano interlude is one of my favorites.)
Brick- Hello[/b] (that buildup intro into the song is lovely, as is the accompaniment throughout.)
Marcos Valle- She told me, she told me [/b] (both intro and interlude piano melodies are amazing....)

just goes to show, nothing really beats simple compositions and great song-writing. plaese to suggest me more!

Fugazi "I'm So Tired" off the "Instrument" soundtrack.
Not what you'd expect from Fugazi, but it's such a rad song - just piano and Ian MacKaye singing.

I always wished that end part of that Nine Ince Nails Song was longer.(forget the name but the chorus is "I Wanna Fuck you Like An Aminal"). that piano at the end is so haunting and beuatiful. If someone hasn't sampled it they need to just so I can hear it for more than 15 seconds at a time

You mean "Closer"



in that vein, peep the end of Faith No More - What Is It





FISH FLOPPIN' FOR DAYZ





goes well with Julianne Moore in Todd Haynes' SAFE

There's a great Silver Mt. Zion song (from the album "He Has Left Us Alone But Shafts of Light Sometimes Grace the Corner of Our Rooms...") that is just piano, stand-up bass, and bad-but-fucking-good singing. There's some strings at the end, too, but it's mostly just bare-bones beauty. Fucking kills me. I think the song is called "Movie (Never Made)."
