Unchained Melody

-
Is there a better song title in all the world than this?

I bought a collection of B-sides and rarities by Sarah McLachlan because a friend had posted a video of her "Prayer of St. Francis" on Facebook. It's a kooky little collection, but the last few songs blew me away. There's an 11-minute techno song called Silence that I love, but it's her cover of Unchained Melody that really blew me away. It's dreamy, like you would expect from Sarah McLachlan, but also kind of atonal with the kind of sudden low jarring guitar plucks that I associate with 20th-century classical music.
