Schubert's ode to the Virgin Mary, "Ave Maria," regardless of its religious implications, is one of the world's most beautiful songs. When sung by a woman with an angelic voice, it stirs emotion in my guts, even though I haven't a clue what they're saying. Celine Dion's version brings tears to my eyes; it's perfect, flawless. Kelly Clarkson sang this masterpiece for the Pope just the other day, and I'm sharing it with you because it is so moving and powerful, I think you deserve to experience it! "Ave Maria" seems otherworldly when I close my eyes, there's a serenity that I can't explain.
