Feels Like Home – Chantal Kreviazuk

Randy Newman wrote the song for a musical production, but it was Chantal Kreviazuk’s interpretation in 1999 that struck a chord with listeners. The song, with the emotional lines “But I’m alright ’cause I have you here with me, And I can almost see through the dark there is light,” was included on the soundtrack for the television series “Dawson’s Creek” that same year.

The song’s emotional appeal stems from its simple yet profound message, which Kreviazuk wonderfully expresses.

Asleep – The Smiths

The Smiths, an English band, wrote “Asleep,” a lullaby-like song that was only performed once in 1985. Despite its limited live exposure, the song’s reassuring lyrics have struck a chord with fans over the years.

“Don’t feel bad for me, I want you to know, Deep in the cell of my heart, I will feel so glad to go,” expresses a sense of serenity and acceptance that is both reassuring and heartbreaking.
