For me, it's "Road." What sounds deceptively simple is surprisingly complex and intricate. But, then again, isn't that the case with the entire 'Pink Moon' LP? Its beauty is its complex minimalism.
Over the years, I am fairly certain that I have included "Road" on more mix tapes and playlists than any other song (and have shared it with others more than any other song). When my sister passed away in 2010, it also helped me through my mourning. It's one of those songs that has so much emotional weight and meaning to me that it will always bring tears to my eyes.
A lovely write-up of a wonderful run out track. I adore this song and was happy to see a line from it being used for the tribute album that came out last year. The cover versions on The Endless Coloured Ways were a mixed bag, but the version of 'From the Morning' by Let's Eat Grandma was by the far the standout track for me. I loved the way Jenny Hollingworth and David Wrench added some subtle new layers to it.

I could listen to that cover for days on end.
