Winter 05' - Ra Ra Riot
Sweet Darlin' - She and Him
Those to Come - The Shins
Wheel - John Mayer
Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want - The Smiths
For The Widows In Paradise, For The Fatherless In Ypsilanti - Sufjan Stevens
America - Simon & Garfunkle
Beautiful - Me'Shell Ndegeocello (kind of cheesy but overwhelmingly pretty)
Please Do Not Let Me Go - Ryan Adams
Don't Give Up On Me - Solomon Burke (A Classic)
I Taught Myself How To Grow Old - Ryan Adams (he captures need; amazing)
Is This It? - The Strokes (hahaha for the ironic at heart)
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)
Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard (ONCE soundtrack)
Talking Bird (Demo) - Death Cab For Cutie (it's on The Open Door EP)
Pink Moon - Nick Drake
So Sorry - Feist
Time - Ben Folds
Head Over Heels - Tears For Fears (supreme choice)
My Father's Gun - Elton John (if you're going for a great song and not "lyrics")
The Bleeding Heart Show - The New Pornographers
The Kids Don't Stand A Chance - Vampire Weekend
Don't Let Your Love Be Colder Than Death - The Virgins
Beside You - Van Morrison (also one of my favorites)
Death And All His Friends - Coldplay
Spitting Venom - Modest Mouse (for the token "long song")
Dónde Está la Playa - The Walkmen
Bright Young Thing - Albert Hammond Jr.

That's what I have to offer. There are a lot; I know. I hope that helps though.

[ps. Dammit that BNL song is perfect; i wish I would of thought of it]
