this was going to be my response. 'don't talk' would be a suitable alternative too.

With beats:
Tom and Joyce - "Vai minha tristeza"
Without beats and sad:
Townes van Zandt - "Rex's blues"
Weirdly affecting cheesy with beats choice:
Q Tex - "Power of love"

'New Grass' is still the best answer anywayi'd have maybe said that a couple of years ago but these days from talk talk i'd prefer i believe in you. it covers the whole world, a free rhythm, a touching melody, a heavenly choir, a wild & weird improvisation. it is like a small chamber symphony, just hanging there, rough & sweet. the instruments sound so natural, i have been thinking to buy myself new huge speakers just for this piece of music.
but in the end julia would still be my fave i guess. what i really love about that song is that lennon seems to whisper it into my ears and sing it directly to me. it is the most intimate song i know, i can only listen to it on my own as i'd feel very uncomfortable in a group.

"I Believe in You" is beautiful, but the last 90 seconds or so of "New Grass" gets to me more deeply than almost anything, so that in my view remains the better choice.
