Songs that makes you cry

This appears in the best 80s songs thread, but sadly the memory I have of this song was hearing it for the first time on the same day I heard my 3 year-old neighbour was diagnosed with Leukemia. We prayed hard, but he passed away 6 months later

This song

It was 2004 and Werder Bremen (German football team) won the Bundesliga and went on to win the DFB Pokal (German FA Cup)

I had been a Werder fan for 21 years at that stage and had gotten tickets for the DFB Pokal final and when we won the whole stadium was a sea of green and every sang this song, still get goosebumps when I hear it

KFallon posted this the other day in another thread. I'll be honest, this song gets me every bloody time.

Right soo. only got so far in the thread when I started to whinge BIG style... I associate music with everything, me and my kids would (and still do) dance round the kitchen to the sounds so heres the very odd mix of songs that dissolve me. Bought this at his just under 3 yr old request, and so had to play it at his funeral..cos it was one of his fav songs

how appropriate it is for me now

Wires by Athlete always brings me to tears, it was written after the lead singers daughter was born prematurely. My own daughter was premature and the song really encapsulates how i was feeling when she was NICU.

know exactly how you feel for the very same reason

Can't believe these 2 haven't been mentioned. :eek:

Ads used to sing the first one ( he was tone deaf) and I have the image of him lying on the kitchen table playing with thomas as he sang that tonelessly....one of my best memories.....the snapshots can sometimes almost break you

second link could not have described any better how i felt after he died

this I played at his funeral, because he loved it, canNOT listen to it anymore

I did shed a tear or two anytime I heard this song. Then I saw 'Rules of Attraction'. The tears don't come anymore.

This always gets to me, I'm crying right now at work over it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwFS69nA-1w

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”

So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me

The lyrics hit me with nearly every line.

I'm sure somone's already posted the Johnny Cash Hurt video - that one gets me everytime.

Also this:

Lyrics:
You haven't looked at me that way in years
You dreamed me up and left me here
How long was I dreaming for
What was it you wanted me for
You haven't looked at me that way in years
Your watch has stopped and the pond is clear
Someone turn the lights back on
I'll love you 'til all time is gone
You haven't looked at me that way in years
But I'm still here

And for some reason this:
