Music that makes you cry when you just think about it, let alone listen to it?

[Mintyy]

Mine is the theme tune to the 70s tv series Black Beauty. The closing credits with the black horse galloping through the wheat field.

Sheesh, I am getting all silly just typing that.

I would definitely cry if I were to see/hear it.

Nimrod.
My lovely old Pop. Gone 2008, always loved. WW2 Officer, brilliant Grand Pop, devoted husband. Lego genius, happy gardener, maker of soup. He loved us all, and we loved him, so much. So hard to hear this music.

Yy to Song to the Siren, Bright Eyes and Landslide. They all get me in floods.

I'd add I Can't Forget, Joan of Arc, Hey That's No Way to Say Goodbye, Anthem, If It Be Your Will, all by Leonard Cohen.

I Know It's Over, Asleep and I Won't Share You by The Smiths.

Dive for your Memory and The Wrong Road by the Go Betweens.

We Could Send Letters and Killermont Street by Aztec Camera.

The Whole of the Moon by The Waterboys.

Are You Ready to be Heartbroken by Lloyd Cole and the Commotions.

Ocean Rain by Echo and the Bunnymen.

All bring a tear to my eye and remind me of lovely summer indie discos in Glasgow in old clubs that don't exist anymore, like the RAFA Club and the Woodside Social.

Fix you - Coldplay.

Still Fighting It - Ben Folds.

Both since the birth of DS1. I can't drive if they are playing.

the ood song in doctor who makes me cry I am so ashamed

The hymn Abide With Me always makes me well up.

This Woman's Work by Kate Bush

Fields of Gold, the Eva Cassidy version. Every time.

I Will Follow You Into The Dark by Death Cab for Cutie. Makes me properly cry and I have to go find DH and have a cuddle.

You lot have made me cry, and I'm on the bloody train!

I think because abide with me is played at funerals that is why it is so emotional it gets me too

Barbers Adagio for Strings
Jerusalem
Wires by Athlete
Handbags and Gladrags (reminds me of grandad)

Sad Café - Every Day Hurts.
The music at the end of the Incredible Hulk tv series, which is played when he is a 'normal' fella and walks off all on his own carrying his backpack.
Black Beauty.
Bright Eyes.
John Martyn - May You Never.
Yann Tiersen - Comptine d'autre été (from Amélie).
God there are loads more....music really has an emotional effect on me.

Run-Leona Lewis
Purple Rain-Prince
Chi Mai-Ennio Moriccone
Word at War theme

Black Beauty
Match Stick Men
I vow to thee my Country
Amazing Grace

Through the long night by Billy Joel - reminds me of my late sister

I can't make you love me by Adele - reminds me of my unrequited love

"Wires" gets me too (DS2 was prem and then had seizures)

Now it's snow patrol "chasing cars" as was in my head the few days after same son was dex with leukaemia. We were just laying there, forgetting the world

Oh dear me yes, that music at the end of the Incredible Hulk .

For some reason I associate Barbers Adagio for Strings completely with grainy black and white footage from the WWI trenches. Is there a reason for that, does anyone know?

Puff The Magic Dragon, I can't even sing it to myself without getting goosebumps it's had this effect on me since I was little and I am not really sure why.

Living years and Jerusalem as well

REM - Automatic for the people album.

I was utterly head over heels in love with someone who left me to go back to his ex. That was "our" album, we listened to it constantly. My heart was broken. We got back together a while after but I have never been able to listen to that album and be reminded of how painful that time was.

thank you martha

You'll never walk alone. It was played at the funeral of a 19yo friend. DP's a Liverpool fan too, even he used to cry when he heard it for the first couple of months after the funeral.

Heartbeat by buddy holly was played at my uncle's funeral. The coffin was carried in to it. I was really surprised that they played it and then my mum said "He bloody loved the programme heartbeat!" It made me do that deeply unattractive laugh-cry that makes snot run down your face. I still get a weird mixture of choked up happiness/sadness when I hear it.

Fix You - Cold Play.

because I wish someone would fix me.

Chocolate - Snow Patrol because it is the soundtrack to a dvd of an epic thing I did. I changed so much and gained so many friends that the song makes me emotional.

Lots of hymns - When I was pg with D's I had some bleeding and there are some hymns that just remind me how precious he is.

Hallelujah
Auld Lang syne
The last post
Run by leona
Mad world by Gary jules reminds me of my mother when she was dying

Basically I cry at anything!!

We'll Meet Again, Vera Lynn. Played at my grandmother's funeral.
Puff the Magic Dragon. It's always made me cry, even as a five year old.
Anything by a brass band.

I will always love you - Dolly's version of course.

On the wings of love by Jefffrey Osbourn
it was on a tape I had when my grandparents died within a day or so of each other and I always think of them Gran died on the operating table and Grandad died of a broken heart 24 hours later (no known preexisting medical reason)

"I'm sure that you're an angel in disguise
Come take my hand and together we will rise
On the wings of love Up and above the clouds
The only way to fly Is on the wings of love
On the wings of love
Only the two of us Together flying high
Flying high upon the wings of love"

Imagine by john Lennon and my immortal (instrumental) by evanescence. The 2nd one reminds me of one of the saddest times of my adult life.
