Any simple songs that move you..?

Do you know any songs that are simple musically, but really get to you?

I can never out my finger on it, but Nick Drake's Horn is one for me. It's short, very simple, but it moves me

Update:

Jeez, turn my back for a minute and I've got two pages of responses. Nicely done, R&P. No TD's from me, BTW.

@theslayer- thanks for the link. I've played that three times in a row now. Great choice

Update 2:

@Olive- that's one of my favorite songs from that album :)

Update 3:

@Silver Rose Wolf- yup, me too. sorry you got the TD

    I don't know if this fits entirely, but the song "7 Weeks" by Gym Class Heroes ft. William Beckett really gets to me. It feels hopeful and sad, and wistful and nostalgic all at the same time. "MFEO: Made For Each Other/You Can Breathe" by Jack's Mannequin makes me feel really joyful, and "I've Got A Dark Alley..." by Fall Out Boy makes me cry. And the live intro to "Hallelujah" by Paramore makes my spine tingle and gives me goosebumps.

    I hope that helps!

    I love any country songs. I think Taylor Swift has a bad voice but a lot of her songs just really hit the spot when you listen to the lyrics. One of my all time favorites is "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain.
