What song hits you hard whenever you listen to it? (lemmy.world)

For me it's "We won't be a alone" by Feint feat. Laura Brehm. I just have nostalgia attached to it and it brings back some nice summer memories.

This post is also for song recommendations since I listen to the same songs for years and I guess I wanna hear something new.

Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley.

And, as mentioned, Mr Cash's haunting and painful rendition of Hurt.

My son does a really nice job on Hallelujah. That song always gets me.

Jeff does the best version.

I know I have the minority opinion; even Cohen said he like Buckley's version better. But I just like Cohen's more. Part of it is his baritone voice, but I love the depth the backup singers give it.

What's neat is that people have such strong feelings on this. It's truly a great song.
