Music that makes you blub....

Another one for me is Halo by Texas. I remember not feeling affected by the whole Princes Diana death situation then watched TFI Friday that day with tributes on the screen backed by that song and it seemed so right, a fitting tribute that brought a tear to my eye.
 
Most of the songs by Sigur Ros. I know they have been played to death at all the emotional moments on reality tv shows and the like, but listened to in the right context it's hard not to feel some emotions wether sadness one minute or euphoria the next.
 
Rod Stewart's Sailing - massive up channel night/sod's opera anthem. Memories of the Falklands

Snow Blind Friend - Steppenwolf. doesn't make me cry but it's a real quiet moment song.
 
its not the songs but the momeries of the departed.
I must stop being so cynical.

Not cynical at all...music nearly always makes me think of something in my past, be it good or bad. At the moment I'm having a particular downer, and every song I hear seems to remind me of "her"...
 
You are all wimps!


The only time I well up to a tune is when I sing along to Jerusalem at the Last Night of the Proms. Tears of pride!
