The Most Transcendent Songs (in no particular order)

In no particular order, these are songs that transcend their genre. Each tells a story which is not in and of itself remarkable but they are broader in subject matter, often weaving multiple subjects together and uniquely crafted -- listeners will immediately stop whatever else they are doing and simply listen to these compelling truths.

More entries to come.

Garnet Rogers, "Night Drive"

Danny Schmidt, "Stained Glass"

Dar Williams, "After All"

Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer, "When I Go"

Richard Shindell, "Transit"

Ralph McTell, "Jesus Wept"

Bruce Springsteen, "The River"

Mary Chapin Carpenter, "Between Here and Gone"
