Re: Songs that bring you to tears!
A surprising second mention for "Last Days of May", but not the version from BOCs first album, the live version on the DVD with a long Alan Lanier solo plus Buck's. The live version posted at YouTube by Rick B doesnt quite make it because of technical problems, but Im sure Richie Castellano / Buck could get me there on that song as well.
Three Roger Waters/PF songs can do it, depending on my mood... all versions from the " In the Flesh" DVD with Doyle Bramhall II and Snowy White. "Dogs", "SOYCD" and "Us and Them".
Joe did it to me live with "Sloe Gin".
A few from "Layla and Other ALS", most reliably "Bell Bottom Blues". And Clapton again with "Can't Find My Way Home".

I just heard KT Tunstall sing "Lonely This Christmas".
Beautiful and heart-wrenching all at the same time. I don't know if I could even listen to that again. Especially after what just happened in CT last week.

Re: Songs that bring you to tears!
I kinda had a bad day yesterday. It was a long day and at the end I just stopped my work and took a long hard look at my beloved Basenji and realized she'll be gone soon. She's got the dog version of Alzheimer's disease. It's a pitiful situation and then I look at how thin my wife has gotten and things seem overwhelming. I don't know how I came across this song other than to say someone wanted me to hear it. Call me nutty, but I believe in Angels and my Angel wanted me to embrace my sorrow in this beautiful song. I believe we all can relate to the lyrics and sometimes you have to acknowledge the heartache to move forward. I hope I haven't depressed any here, but a couple members came to mind when I listened to Beth Orton's "I Wish I Never Saw the Sunshine".

Curby, listened to this did make me cry. Sometimes that is all we can do is cry to release the feelings we have. Just want you to know that sending you prayers and love.

A lovely song Curby. Our last little yorkie is in a similar state. Toothless, half deaf, cataracts and sometimes he gets lost in the house. We nurse him along and he has good and bad days, but every day we get is a blessing.

Re: Songs that bring you to tears!
The latest one to do it to me is "Last Night" by Eric Steckel on his latest album "Dismantle The Sun". For some unexplained reason his guitar work and tone for the second half of the song just gets to me. Love this album.
Why don't we eliminate all the warning labels and let things sort themselves out?
Re: Songs that bring you to tears!
Elbow's 'Scattered Black And Whites',such a poignant recollection of memories growing up in a bustling household,an ageing grandparent (i think,or older parent)-,i remember at my grandparents' house MY grandad sitting in HIS chair,shell-shocked hands trembling as he read the racing pages of the newspaper,picking out bets for the day, our house was a flurry of hormones as my three elder sisters got ready for school/college/nights out,all vying for their share of the bathroom,stomping across the landing as Slade/Bob Dylan/The Supremes blasted out of the Dansette type record player,-IF there was any hot water left from the coal-fired back boiler,i may have been scrubbed clean in the kitchen sink too,complaining if soap(not shampoo!) got in my eyes! Happy days...!
