"Nessun Dorma" by Pavarotti. Tom Waits cried the first time he heard it. Pavarotti's expression as he ends the aria is beautiful to see.

For a pop song it has to one of these two:

If You See Her, say Hello--Dylan

It Makes No Difference--The Band

Both good choices. There's also "Acadian Driftwood."

The exact recording? I dunno. iTunes has several versions of Chants d'Auvergne-- I prefer the Natania Davrath version, mostly because it's less "operatic" in delivery.
