Rem: At My Most Beautiful
I think this is REM’s most beautiful song, not that they are known for beautiful songs. The song was 20 years old before I heard it for the first time and it became my favorite song. It is played at the end of Smallville season 3 episode 4 (currently on Hulu).
As an aside, in my opinion the most beautiful artist I know is Aurora. Her “Exist For Love” (song and video) is lyrical, vocal, and choreographic masterpiece. The guitar is simple enough that I do not think it needs to be covered. I am just a big Aurora fan.
