... some that spring to mind for mine, but picking one is near impossible, depends on my mood
Or a radiohead / bjork song
Damn you have the most basic "I'm a a music fan" taste in music.

What you want some obscure underground original song? Sure
So real and beautiful
A bit biased as my Mum used to sing it to me when I was young and I came home from school crying.
But the lyrics and vocals are absolutely stunning.
Every night Mom would pray
Her life would not be torn
Her clothes would not be worn
Until they dropped off of her
My child, you dear
Don't have no fear, I'll shed the tears
Keep your head clear, my pretty baby
Little girl, I want you to attend the finest schools
And never be a fool, I've got experience
Learn all that you can, you'll find that in the end
You'll learn how to depend on yourself
It makes me glad
You have the things I didn't have
Never be sad, my pretty baby
Pretty baby grew into a lady
The people don't know
What your mama know, they don't
Pretty baby
I sing this to myself whenever I'm sad. I sang it at her funeral. I'm going to sing this to my own daughter one day.
Thank you Sister Sledge, Nile Rodgers, Bernard Edwards and everyone else involved in this song and album.

You're welcome.
Actually maybe this
The placebo cover is better imo but still a classic
