Die Unstillbare Gier, with Steve please as first pick. The most raw, emotional, beautiful, and all over the spectrum best song I ever heard.

Heaven Can Wait, especially the live version with Meat Loaf and Jim on piano. A Gift.

For Crying Out Loud, just because it makes me remember good things... and besides, it rocks. :)
