The Star Spangled Banner(I think I have that wrong) sung with twisted lyrics:
"Well, the monkey wrapped his tale around the flag pole, to feel the breeze blow, to cool his..."
It was something my mother taught me, I swear.
Oh wait, no! It's this:

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strength.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. LOL

And how about this?:
Mommy, Daddy, come and look at me now
I'm a big man in a great big town
Years ago who would believe it's true
Goes to show what a little faith can do

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up

I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up pull me up pull me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up

I drift away to another land
Sleeping dreaming such a simple thing
I think of things that I might be
I see my name go down in history

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I tripped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled
you pulled me up! Pulled me up up, Pulled me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up

Jethro Tull - the last bits of A Passion Play "Hail, Son of kings - "
 
Beethoven - The 9th Symphony
 
Gentle Giant - "Three Friends"  especially the last few seconds with all the vocal harmony.  Too short, but sublime!
 
Yes - Awaken
 
Ralph Vaughn-Williams - Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis (it doesn't get any more uplifting that this)
 
I'm sure there's many more.
 
[Edit - hey I just graduated to senior member with this post or or the one before.  That was fast!  I gotta get a life.  Or does that refer to my age. . . ]
