Elvis Presley
Can’t help falling in love
Although each cover of this song is good the original remains undoubtedly the best. are great, the best one is still the original one,Sung by Evis Presley in 1960, in the album Blue Hawaii, Though the cover version by UB-40 is also good, still in my opinion, it couldn’t reach the heights of Elvis. It it was certified as a platinum by RIAA. The soothing strains music of the guitar is what makes it all the even more beautiful.

The Doors
Riders on the Storm
This, I would say, is one of the best songs by The Doors from their 1971 album L.A. Woman. One of the last songs recorded by Jim Morrison before his death in the 1970s, it is an ace piece by the ‘lizard king’.

Plain White Tees
A Lonely September
This song is not a mass favourite but is high on emotion. may not be very famous among the masses but it sure is a great song full of emotions. The genre is pop/punk. From the pop album The album Stop was first released in 2002 and then re-released in 2007, its heart lies in its lyrics: It goes something like this:I am sittin here all by myself just tryin’ to think of something to do, I am trying to think of something, anything just to keep me from thinking of you, but you know its not working out ’coz you’re all that’s on my mind, one thought of you is all it takes to leave the rest of the world behind ....I didn’t mean for this to go as far as it did/

Lovestory
This is a very beautiful song — hear Romeo asking Juliet’s father for her hand in marriage. Written and sung by country artiste Taylor Swift it was released in the album Fearless in 2008 which happens to be her first single. The song is sung in mid-tempo with a wonderful idealised ending.
