Is there a song that makes you emotional?

[HTHMAN]

Most of the songs from "Les Mis"---(not the movie)

 

[Rockyhill]

The Hamster Dance Song

And...if the whole world had to listen to OJ's tunes...there'd be a payoff!

Not roasting him here...well, maybe just a little braising, eh?

All done in good fun.

Just be sure to never accidentally hear Sean Connery perform it...

Quadman is right, because I actually like Sean's spoken version of this classic.

Here's a Sean Connery joke. What's the definition of the word "bashment" ?

It's where Sean Connery does his laundry.

Arr arr arr....

Classics IV - Traces

Shortly after my future wife and I started dating, I moved halfway across the state for a job. I didn't know anyone in town outside of work, and she was unable to visit with any regularity. As she was leaving my apartment after one particular weekend visit, this song came on the radio. I suppose I associate the bittersweet nature of the lyrics with our all-too-brief encounters and the longing to see her again. While it's never produced any tears, that song still gets to me in its own way.

Gordon Lightfoot - Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

Real life set to music. That's why this one still gives me the chills. "All that remains are the faces and the names of the wives and the sons and the daughters." Enough said.

Stole mine here. Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald......The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy

Tower of Power - "You're still a Young Man" - Memories of my ex always pop up with this one.
Glen Campbell - "Wichita Lineman" - Always brings on a melancholy feeling within me.
#1 is Eric Clapton - "Tears in Heaven" - brings memories of when I was separated from my son.

 

[Old Ears too]

This Land Is Your Land, live by the Boss.

Always brings back the memories I have of driving across this great country of ours, alone, not even listening to the radio or cassette or CD or iPod. Just driving...

"But of all theshe friendsh and loversh

[MaxxVolume]

This song by Elton always gets to me....

"We`re crippled and we`re dazed....
A gardener like that one, no one can replace"....

Many of the songs by America's troubadour, John Prine.
