What songs make you weepy?

[jaybee from UK]

Here are mine, in no particular order:


The Corgis - 'Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime';

Herb Alpert - 'This Guy's In Love With You';

Johnny Hates Jazz - 'Turn Back The Clock';

George Benson - 'Kisses In The Moonlight' (my first, bitter taste of unrequited puppy love);

Celine Dion - Falling Into You;

Miami Sound Machine - 'Words Get In The Way' - man, Gloria knows knows how sing them;

Terry Jacks - 'Seasons In The Sun'.


But the daddy of them all....Frank Sinatra - 'Soliloquy'.

Ladies, if you ever want to know what the heck makes us men tick, just buy one of 'Ol blue-eyes albums. He sings the stuff that's in the deepest reach of every guys heart, the stuff that we men dare not even sleeptalk about. But by God, he does dare, and lays it all on the table for the world. I challenge any man, father or not, to listen to this song without getting a lump in his throat.


Jaybee.

Reminder...ole' blue eyes didn't write the songs. He just croons someone else's thoughts.


Weepy~ Vindicated because it's the last song STO and I talked about.

[osuche]

"Drive" by the Cars. It was oneof my dad's favorite songs.

[Lilith]

excellent song osuche.....I love that one too!

[GingerV]

"Drive" is one of my favorites too.

Different songs make me weepy on different days. But Clapton's "Tears in Heaven" ...every single time.

[TinTennessee]

There is a wonderful guitar instrumental by Tommy Emmanuel (thank you for introducing me to his music P) called, For Those Who Wait. I don't know why, but it just makes me cry...not particularly sad, just beautiful. Also, Amazing Grace played on bagpipes.

[Sharni]

Tears In Heaven
Old Shep
Bonny Portmore

[maddy]

Amazing Grace gets me too! As does Silent Night. There are plenty of others that make me weepy. But those two are definites.

[Belial]

The Cure - Pictures Of You.

I posted the lyrics a while ago to the "Sing to me baby" thread. Beautiful and powerful break-up song.

[PantyFanatic]

Percy Faith- Summer Place
Etta James- At Last
Louis Armstrong- What A Wonderful World
Atetha Franklin- Skylark
Van Morrison- Crazy Love

Amazing Grace on the pipes and Echo Taps with bugles

[Lilith]

At Last and Crazy Love are 2 songs I put on every cd I burn.

[IM1469]

Theme from the movie "Brian's Song" with james Caan with the closing seen and the narrator saying "people won't remember how he died, but how he lived."

[LixyChick]

Every Rose Has It's Thorn ~ Poison

I Will Always Love You ~ Whitney Houston (written by Dolly Parton)

Sweet Caroline ~ Neil Diamond (my mom's name was Caroline and she loved that song)

Almost everything by Nat King Cole

[imaginewithme]

Probably one of Liliths reasons as to why this one gets me.... "Iris" by GooGoo Dolls

and for other reasons
"All My Life" by KC & JoJo

[Oldfart]

Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers. (No disrespect, mistress Lilith)

[flutelady]

When I was a little girl, my dad used to sing "The Tennessee Waltz" to me. It was such a sad song, and he sang it with much emotion. I always cried. My dad died many years ago, but I can still hear him singing to me, and it still chokes me up.

[wyndhy]

i really hate to admit this but the theme song from titanic. (french accent) zung bi seline dione wiz 'er flowing 'air.

smile by nat king cole

it just seems to have been around during some bad times in my life notably when my ex wife was allowed by the courts to take my children to south africa, but i was patient and they are back with me now

smile though your heart is aching
smile even though it's breaking

its on a ad on the tv at present and still brings a tear to my eye

[flutelady]

I love the way music can instantly change our moods, take us back to a special time, bring back a certain feeling...

Hardhornyhubby, I'm very glad to hear that you got your children back!
