Nice! Here's mine;
Mountain Time - JB
Supper's Ready - Genesis (Seconds Out version)
Your Long Journey - Robert Plant & Alison Krauss
Dante's Prayer - Loreena McKennitt
Making Pies - Patty Griifin
Two from Joe are Happier Times and Mountain Time. Bruce Springsteen acoustic album, Nebraska
Brothers in Arms - yes of course. The timbre of Mark K voice hear will choke me every time
The River - Springsteen. Don'tknow why. Its deep seated. Those opening bars.....
Long Lost Friend - Dave Mason. Must have some deep resonance for me,by his wonderful closing solo I'm wasted
A new one for my latest misery...
You already know - Train.
A song out there that completely describes what has just happened to me, the irony being it was a track off HER album. If it was written from personal experience I am grateful I'm not the only idiot out there.........
Last Days of May Blue Oyster Cult (first album)
The Edmund Fitzgerald. Gordon Lightfoot.
Sloe Gin by that guy I have heard who's good
Last Matador Of Bayonne by that same whoya macall him
I know there's more,but I do try to stay away from cryin songs.I like the upbeat ones better.
Brothers In Arms #1 for sure. Simply haunting in every way.
One tune does it for me, James Taylors Sweet Baby James. It didn't have such an impact till 5/8/89, the day my son was born. Shortly after we brought him home I played it as I rocked him to sleep in my arms, his Mom had to take him before I soaked him with tears! It still gets me to this day and probably always will. I saw Bruce Hornsby here in the Bay Area shortly after Jerry Garcia had passed and when he played Sugaree in Jerry's memory there wasn't a dry eye in the house. If I'm in the right mood that one gets me still occasionally.
Merry Xmas!

Funny you mentioning Patty Griffin. At the end of the credits in the movie Elizabethtown, Patty sings the most haunting version of "Moon River", a song that I'll long remember my Mother for as it was one of her favorite songs. I was able to play this version for her before she passed and she just loved Patty's soulful interpretation. I'll bet I heard that song a million times growing up, many with Mom singing along, but it wasn't till this version that I actually felt the true meaning of the words.
'The Long and Winding Road' by the Beatles. And I prefer the original Spector'd version.
i see many of us have "Sloe Gin" in common! most songs only make me cry once and very rarely twice, but "Sloe Gin" makes me cry everytime i hear it! same goes to "Brothers in Arms"...
Brothers In Arms #1 for sure. Simply haunting in every way.
even its guitar solo! gives you chills, right?
"Where were you"-Jeff Beck (Haunting guitar)
Missing - The Boss
Stay with me baby - Lorraine Ellison (greatest one hit wonder ever, imo)
For The Love Of God - Steve Vai
Whispering A Prayer - Steve Vai
Happier Times - Joe
I'd Rather Go Blind - Beth & Joe
Several songs from Pink Floyd that my aged brain won't let me remember the names of!
What does it for me is John Prine's "Hello In There".
Bruce Springsteen "The Promise"
+1.....and also his Angel (Footsteps).
Lowell George - I Can't Stand the Rain......even with the upbeat sounding horns it's still very sad, and I miss him.
"Where were you"-Jeff Beck (Haunting guitar)
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (Live)
