Don't Watch Me Dancing - Little Joy (a personal favorite for this list and very unknown band if you are going for "Where did you get that song?!)
Hero and Leander - Adam Guettal's "Myths and Hymns" (it's a musical theatre song cycle; very contemporary and beautiful)

Beside You - Van Morrison (also one of my favorites)
