It was part of a longer vid which I can't find now, with accidents, bad accidents, hugely tragic accidents.

It seems that video was pulled for copywrite infringment though

Other more cheerful, thoughtful stuff, which is more the music than the content (so everyone doesn't go out to the pub in a bad mood tonight wink )

Elgar - Nimrod

Pachelbel - Canon in D Major (loads of different versions)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wpPk8qk3uQ

Toumani Diabaté - Tapha Niang (doesn't seem to be any seperate videos)

Agreed. And I'm amazed I've never even heard of David Purley - what a hero

This is much better sung as a duet, but the 'tube is bereft of such examples.

So. Maria Callas will have to do

The Kings Of Convienence(sp)+ Feist - The Build Up.

Prefab Sprout - Bonny (Words don't hold you, broken soldiers. Save your speeches, flowers are for funerals....weeping) Bit personal that one, its the soundtrack to the biggest mistake I ever made.

Nick Drake - Northern Sky

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2JjJPDz3EE&fea...
Nick Drake - From The Morning (I will never forgive Gabrielle for letting them use this on an advert. Sorry, bit of a fan.)

Can't find decent videos for Hobart Paving - Saint Etienne, Driving With The Brakes On - Del Amitri or Away Down The River - Alison Krauss.

However this is the most moving song evah.

That's Me Trying - William Shatner

And no I'm not joking. Ignore the video, listen to the lyrics then judge. I'm not even a father but it always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
