Just as the title suggests! Name a song, or songs that move you! To tears, laughter, happiness, whatever! Bonus points for why.

Mine - Bob Dylan-The times they are a-changin, I remember it playing it as my little sister got into her wedding dress and it felt very apt! And Joe Cocker-With a little help from my friends, reminds me of when I left my ex and my best friend turned up with a bottle of vodka and blasted it out and sang the entire thing to me whilst I sobbed Grin

This womans work by Kate Bush. It always makes me cry, in fact I listen to it when I need a good cry, it gets things going.

The Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics makes me think of my Dad every-time

How to save a life by The Fray also gives me a teary eye!!

Daad and home by Tanya Tucker. My dad always used to laugh when I said it reminded me of him.

Depending on what mood I'm in when I listen to it, it either makes me smile with the memories of him or cry with sadness. He died a few years ago and I miss him every day.

Sunshine on Leith by the Proclaimers. Beautiful timeless song

On days like these by Matt Monro. Memories of the road trips I made to Germany to spend weekends with my friend before she died.

Lover by Taylor Swift .Cringe at admitting this one but its a tear jerker for memories of loss last Xmas

Fix You by Coldplay

"Tears stream, down your face, when you lose something you can't replace"

I listened to it a lot when grieving for my granddad.

Tears in heaven

Somebody that I used to know
Take me to church.
Everybody hurts.
You'll never walk alone.
Through the wire

Rockin in the Free World by Neil Young.
Can never listen to that song without having a lump in my throat at second verse

Time to say goodbye and rule the world hace been played at a few funerals I've been to so I can't listen to them anymore without crying.

One moment in time.
