Is there a song that instantly makes your heart leap?

I'm a huge music fan. Songs dictate my emotions a lot which might sound weird. DH is not a music fan and he totally doesn't understand the feelings a certain song can provoke in me.

So is there that one song that instantly touches your soul and provokes emotions??

Mine is Gary Moore - Still in love with you

Mr Blue Sky by ELO makes me very happy. It reminds of being very young 😊

The Boys of Summer by Don Henley takes me right back to being a teenager, such memories.

And Paradise by Coldplay - just magic when they do it live. Always gives me goosebumps when I hear it.

Also - parisienne walkways. Always loved it and then we saw a guy perform it live when we were on holiday. Honestly so many goosebumps!

Light the Night (the Snowman and the Snowdog song)
The first time I saw the snowman and the snowdog we had just lost our dearly beloved family dog at 10 years old. I can't watch it without sobbing now as it just reminds me of our dear old boy so much 💔

When I was your man by bruno Mars. A bit naff but there's something about it that gets me. It's that one "I should've brought you flowers... now your dancing with another guy".
