Sorry can't limit it to 1, there's too much good music out there!

Laura Veirs, July flame

Ben Howard, keep your head up

Melody Gardot, deep within the corners of my mind

Kings of Convenience, I don't know what I can do to save you

3 Doors down, Landing in London
 
James Taylor - Gaia

Honestly there is nothing like it, starts off mellow, great vocals and some of the best drums I've ever heard about two thirds through.

I first heard this track at the dealer where I bough my valve pre, he uses it as a refernce track and I can see why. You'll want to re-wind those drums, trust me. It's a good one loud.
 
Eva Cassidy - Live at the Blues alley - 7-Tall Trees In Georgia.

Liane Carroll - UP and Down - 02-What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life.

How are you going to judge 'the winner'?
I can only listen short clips of each song from iTunes so it must grab me for very little time - I know it's not the best way yo evaluate a song but it's what I have at my disposal.

a) I'm going to purely judge it on how it sounds and whether it hits the emotion that will make me smile from ear to ear like the joker 🙂 Keep them coming...so many to go through. I will only choose one winner!
