Thanks to everyone who submitted fave pretty songs … the resulting mix is kinda, well, awesome. (Yes, as Em Em pointed out, awesome in a teary, heartachy sorta way. Still, bravo to all y’all who contributed.)

I once knew someone who kept a list of songs he considered the prettiest. (”Pink Moon” was one example he gave me.) While my tendency to eschew playlists is well documented, creating a mental catalog of pretty songs struck me as a worthwhile endeavor somehow.
Now, when I hear new music, it inevitably gets parsed as pretty or not, and I’ve found that—surprisingly—that certain dulcet quality is kinda rare in popular music. Even most so-called love songs tend to have an edge to them it seems. Recently, though, I heard a couple songs that fit the pretty bill quite nicely. Enjoy. (Oh, and let me know in the comments what songs *you* think make the grade.)
Thanks to @roosto for (getting my sense of humor and) passing along this lil funny.
