Judy Collins 'Amazing Grace' The Strawbs 'Grace Darling' The Move 'Beautiful Daughter' The Congregation 'Softly Whispering I Love You'. Jeff Buckley 'Hallelujah'.
... would be amiss to not name these songs : • Give Me Love, Give Me Peace On Earth • The Light That Has Lighted The World • Who Can See It • Your Love Is Forever • Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let it Roll) • Be Here Now • Beware of Darkness • The Day The World Gets 'Round ...all by the late, great George Harrison.
