Heaven 17 - come live with me/Let Me Go
These 2 songs are also truly beautiful 80's classics.

I know "white bird" by It's a beautiful day(which I consider to be proto prog). Is there another "white bird?"

There are way too many non-prog songs that I love and find really beautiful to try and remember them and put them here. Right now I might just go for "Fly me to the Moon" (I really wish it had been adapted by King Crimson, something between the jazzy style they used with "Bolero" and the studio version of "Starless"), Greensleeves, and The Last Unicorn (by America).

Some coming to mind Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird Jimmy Cliff - Many Rivers To Cross Johnny Clegg - Asimbonanga Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun Arlo Guthrie - The City Of New Orleans Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth Iosonouncane - Carne Janis Joplin - everything she did Kate Havnevik -Sleepless Lou Reed - Almost everything he did Patti Smith - Land and a lot of other songs Red Hot Chili Peppers - Parallel Universes Ska-P - I love this Spanish strongly politically oriented SKA band. Then I think to Dylan, Tom Petty, some Italians like Rino Gaetano who was absolutely non-prog but a genius in particular with lyrics, and again John Mayall, and many bluesmen, the Rolling Stones, Clapton...there's a lot of stuff outside. Some world music i.e. Mori Kante Pagan folk: Omnia and even some newage is surely not bad. I love Lucia Hwong and I also suggested her for inclusion years ago but I guess she's been rejected. |

I'm surprised to see this mentioned here, but you are right. Have you heard Montanha Mãe off their latest album? They went full Prog on that one ;)
