Suteki da Ne, all the way. =) It's so soothing and sexy. Shen and I should have a duet on MSN sometime. 
And then sing, "Here Comes the Rain Again."

Suteki Da Ne fo' sho'.
Yeah, I love that song, ever since I heard it on YouTube a couple weeks ago.
Gotta love the melody; plus it's just beautiful.

I'd go with the Aria. Beautiful song, beautiful moment, and opera in general is just awesome. My only complaint is the flawed Italian lyrics.
Why do I decline the others?
Pure Heart and Suteki da Ne have wonderful melodies. But I hate Rikki's voice. It's insubstantial and gets utterly overpowered by the score, in my opinion. She's a Japanese folk singer by trade, and has a perfect voice for such a genre, but not these scores.
Liberi Fatali and One Winged Angel are both choral, very strong. But I feel like both are really suited best to accompany something else and I wouldn't listen to either one on its own.
Wanderer of Time (Terra's Theme) and Eyes On Me are both pleasant. I loved the Eyes On Me theme from FFVIII (one of the people who honestly didn't think it was overplayed), but it was still just a pop ballad for me - not to mention the Engrish. Terra's Theme is haunting, but more a work of nostalgia for me, than something to listen for its own sake.
Melodies of Life was a nice song. I didn't play FFIX, so I don't have the bias of attributing it to the game, so I can kind of look at it as a song and nothing else. And I think it seems like a nice song a mother might sing to a child. Emiko Shiratori really seems motherly to me, too.
1000 Words and Real Emotion - these two try a little to hard to be breakout pop ballads. And I don't really like the style that they convey.
Kiss Me Goodbye = background music. That's all I have to say about that one.

I used to think "Suteki da Ne" was tops until I got the Voices DVD. I was hugely indifferent to "Eyes on Me" until I heard that song on that DVD. Very soulful, just...wow.

WHO KEEPS DELETING MY DAMN POSTS?!
Suteki Da Ne, seconded by A One-Winged Angel (Although Vocals are in no way the key focus on that song)

I liked 1000 Words and Kiss Me Goodbye (don't hurt me!  ).
There's also a place in my heart for Melodies of Life and Suteki Da Ne. |

Wow, I can't pick one!
Eyes on Me, 1000 Words, Suteki Da Ne and Terra (Vocal Collection).
What about Otherworld, Hymn of Faith and The Skies Above, ehh? ;P Also, there's more than one version of most of the songs.
I prefer the normal version of Suteki Da Ne as opposed to the instrumental version.
I prefer the 6 minute version of 1000 Words, found only on Jade's album, as opposed to the X-2 shorter version.
I prefer the English version of Eyes on Me as opposed to the Japanese version.
And, more notable, I prefer the Black Mages version of Otherworld to the FFX one!!
