Brings tears to my time each time I play it just from its beauty.
I really like: Waloyo yamoni by Christopher Tin.
It just touches my heart.

A chiptune song composed on a very primitive DAW and later used as an unlockable track in a small mobile game.
It barely has any views but is one of the most nostalgic songs I’ve ever heard.

This is probably relatively well-known, but Sublime’s cover of the hymn “Rivers of Babylon” is breathtaking. It was my lullaby as a baby.
For the version I’m referring to, look at “Rivers of Babylon – Acoustic Version” on the album “Sublime Acoustic”. The version of “Saw Red” on that album is beautiful as well.
