A little mainstream possibly, but I've always had a soft spot for
Jolene by Ray Lamontagne. His voice helps ramp up the emotional impact of course, but it just feels so earnest?!?

I don't know about most beautiful, but one song I've always fallen back onto when I'm feeling any sort of melancholy is The Books' "A Little Longing Goes Away"

They have that duality of being both sad and somewhat uplifting at the same time down to a science.

In terms of melancholic beauty, this has gotta be up there.. especially this version.

This is highly subjective, of course, but for me this song will always qualify:
Echo & The Bunnymen - The Killing Moon

The Girl from Ipanema is a lovely choice.
Little_A_Northern_Soul_1 was recently obsessed with the film Rio (cracking kids film btw) & there's a version of that song on there, so it has been in my head a lot recently. Along with some great samba tunes

I listened to this piece a stupid amount of time over the winter. It sure sounded like the most beautiful music for a while.

great choice. i've been mildly obsessed with Satie and the Gymnopedies lately; so minimalist and simple, but very powerful.
I think my vote goes to
NIN - Leaving Hope. that track always manages to toy with my emotions.
