What song makes you cry?

[LibertyLue]

I was driving to work yesterday and Caledonia came on my radio. I arrive at work absolutely bawling! That song gets me every single time, I’ll be ok for the first few bars then I can’t hold back the tears. I also used to find Tears in Heaven a guarantee of tears but haven’t listened to that in a while.
Wondering what other songs people find have the same effect on them.

Still fighting it - Ben folds

Yes, this too. Sob.

Every breath you take - Puff Daddy version. Had it at my dads funeral as he used to sing and dance with his grandsons to it 💙

ABBA slipping through my fingers*

Yes! Every time! Also Cat's in the Cradle and A Winter's Tale by David Essex.

Nutshell - alice in chains . They sang it mtv unplugged if you watch it on YouTube, comments like a man singing at his own funeral.

Agree 100% with Abba Slipping through my fingers.

Also, Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks

Dance with my father
Mad world
Baby mine
Supermarket flowers
The scientist
There’ll you’ll be

There!

Just played Into My Arms. One of my favourite songs ever.

Martha by Tom Waits stopped me in my tracks and made me cry first time I heard it

Electric dreams

Do you realise by Flaming Lips.

xanthippe8 great song

Queen: Who Wants to Live Forever & The Show Must Go on, as well

The Blowers Daughter by Damian Rice, it was my husbands song for our daughter and I cry within the first few bites when I recognise it on the radio etc.

Notes not bites 🤪

The wonder of you, Elvis and the killing of Georgie by Rod Stewart

Also Kate Bush this woman's work.

Van Morrison's Have I told you lately that I love you xx

Cat stevens - father and son
Elvis prestley - bride over troubled water
Eric
Clapton - years in heaven

Proclaimers - Sunshine on Leith
Queen - Who Wants Live Forever / Too Much Love Will Kill You / No-One But You / The Show Must Go On (a lot of their songs get to me!)
Dolly Parton - Coat of Many Colours / I Will Always Love You

INXS - Never tear us apart
Bowie - Wild is the wind
The Jam - English Rose

Let Her Go by Passenger

Re. A breakup, ex cheated on me and came running back regretting everything he had done, but I slammed that bitch down

Ordinary world - Duran Duran. I remember listening to it during a really difficult time in my life when struggling with MH.
Chasing cars - snow patrol
Someone you love - lewis capaldi (it always seemed to be on the radio when I drove to see my dad, in his last weeks of life knowing he had not got long)

Fix you- Coldplay. Heard it the day after my mums funeral when I literally felt broken.

The slow show - ordinary lives

Same love by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.
Also Small Bump by Ed Sheeran 🥺

This is fast becoming my favourite thread ever. Already thrown ‘into my arms’ in the ring.

I also absolutely love bat for lashes ‘laura’

Thanks for keeping me company this evening with your truly beautiful songs

Just remembered Take That, Fly High, as my son told me it's about a baby that didn't make it. 😞

Ingrid Michaelson - build it up
