Songs that make you sob

[ChrisChambersNeverMisses]

Sorry, I know this topic has been done before but...
Recently watched The Falling, and Florence Pugh sings Voyage To The Moon- it's only a brief moment, but I had never heard the song before and I cannot stop thinking about it. I've listened to Donovan and the Mary Hopkin version and I'm sobbing! Absolutely bawling my eyes out! It is such a sad sweet melancholy song. It's making me think of the DCs as babies and how little DD (4) is growing so big now...

Are there any songs that have given you the same reaction? I can't stop listening and crying!

Disclaimer- this may be a result of lockdown hysteria

With you From Ghost the musical

And

On my own from Les Miserables
Baby mine when Dumbo's mummy is in the cage turns me into a wreck.

Don't know much but I know I love you, Linda Ronstadt
Woman's Work, Kate Bush
Loving you is easy god your beautiful, Minnie Riperton

How to save a life. Fix you by Coldplay

Labi siffre something inside so strong. My first love. It was going to be our wedding song. We split & he's dead now. Everytime I hear that song I get a big lump in my throat.

"Slipping through my fingers "and "dance with my father" .. cannot even listen to them .. I bawl.

Ten Years Gone by Led Zeppelin. Very nostalgic for me.

Dry your eyes mate - The Streets. Came out when my first 'd'h left. Happily married (to a different man) now but it still gets me.

Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton, for obvious reasons

West life - you raise me up

Coldplay - fix you

Frank Sinatra - my way. Played that at my grandads funeral and it gets me every time.

Memories by Maroon 5, makes me think of my brother who died 18 months ago. 'The memories bring back memories bring back you, ' has me sobbing every time i hear it.

Yes, Eva Cassidy's Over The Rainbow, definitely.

Another vote for Thin Lizzy, Still In Love With You.

And Charlene Soraiya's Wherever You Will Go slays me every time. It was the Twinings Tea advert music years ago.

Not RTFT, but I find the Smiths song, Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me, makes my chin quiver
