Not that I listen to these (sad) songs often but when I do it is hard to stop playing them:
A well known song from Simon & Garfunkel, but versioned and interpreted some years ago by Disturbed:
Another emotional song is “El perdón” by Diana Navarro:
Customer’s rant about Windows Licensing.
My childhood, thank to my parent 
Hungarian bands O_o 
Unique
Ocho Macho
…and greatly improved. The song is very good, but S&G’s performance really doesn’t capture the feeling of the lyrics.

@dnutan you have also seen the version of Henk Poort?
For all non Dutch: Henk Poort is an Opera and Musical singer.
Agree with you, in the cover the song grows and progresses matching the lyrics better driving to emotions.
I didn’t heard it before. Nice, a cover of a cover, giving a slightly different color to the song. I recall hearing him in a duet with Floor Jansen from NightWish, (it was probably in the same besteZangers’ TV show). By the way, in the linked video I heard the true sound of silence (i felt like it was April fools day… finally watched it from another link).
Floor Jansen… @dnutan you make me remember Anette Olzon and the “controversial” way to manage her from NightWish. Happens.
In any case, going to run again The Islander from NW.
I don’t know the whole story behind the controversy but a slightly idea. That’s life, sh*t happens (for the worse or the better) yet ain’t life the greatest show on earth?
Play, more than show. The theatrical one. Sometimes with a crappy script 
Petrarca defined “Divine” the Dante’s play but in a “esoterical way”, he described the humanity he knew.
Lyrics with the quebecois accent 
T'étais toujours tout seul, mais t'étais ben entouré
Tu disais qu'le bois y'avait rien de mieux pour s'retrouver
Tu quittais pendant des mois, dans jamais nous rassurer
Tu r'venais prendre le pouls tu r'partais sans t'retourner
On aurait ben aimé que tu sois là plus souvent
Prendre un café, jaser ou juste jouer avec les enfants
Tu disais que c'tait pas pour toé la ville rendait le monde méchant
T'aimais mieux ton exil au pays des sapins géants
On faisait de notre mieux pour oublier tes absences
Essayer d'être heureux ignorer les évidences
Tes visites s'espaçaient tes mots aussi disparaissaient
Tu disais qu't"allais bien pis que tu connaissais ton chemin
Y'ont r'trouvé ton pick-up tout seul dans le Grand Nord
Couvert de neige pis vide pas loin du Labrador
On a eu beau hurler mobiliser le monde entier
On savait que cette fois-là tu r'viendrais pas
Tu r'viendrais pas, pour prendre une dernière fois une bière avec les gars
Tu r'viendrais pas, juste pour nous dire de pas s'en faire avec tout ça
Tu r'viendrais pas, attiré pour de bon par le fin fond du bois
J'espère au moins le frère que t'es heureux là-bas
Dans la beauté boréale du Nord québécois
À errer tranquillement en faisant c(que t'aimais tant
Flâner avec le vent au pays des sapins géants
les cowboys fringuants : Au pays des sapins géants
September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In Police Room 619
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
- The man is dead
The man is dead
When I try to sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one colour dead
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja,
- The man is dead
The man is dead
You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flame begins to catch
The wind will blow it higher
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
- The man is dead
- The man is dead
And the eyes of the world are watching now
Watching nowDeep Purple / Made in Japan / Child in time / 1972
Sweet child in time
You’ll see the line
The line that’s drawn between
Good and bad
See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying
Ohh taking toll
If you’ve been bad
Oh Lord I bet you have
And you’ve not been hit
Oh by flying lead
You’d better close your eyes
Ooohhhh bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Ooo, ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Ooo, ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aahh, aahh aahh
Aah I wanna hear you sing
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aahh, aahh aahh
Aaahhhh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aahh, aahh aahh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aaaahh aaaahh aaaahh
Aahh, aahh aahh
Sweet child in time
You’ll see the line
The line that’s drawn between…
The absolutly BEST version of the several live ones in my collection!
All were at their peaks!
Hi
You should listen to the song “Strange kind of woman”, on this same live album.
The challenging “Duet” of Ritchie and Ian (Guitar and Vocals) doing the challenge bit…
One against the other, and the public is going bonkers!
Each challenges the other to play the tones the other just played.
Both do an excellent job!
My 2 cents
Andy
Pour les membres Francophones:
The Swiss French Radio Couleur3, with a replay of a 2003 live concert!
Via Internet, what else?
Just for fun, we (me) are going to e locked down Christmas anyways so maybe find the time to listen / watch this too:
AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA prices?!
Love that song!
If you like progressive like pink floyd or porcupine tree… have fun with this:
or if you into some heavy hard rock…
Purple Album by WhiteSnake… its near perfection what they did to some Deep Purple music
