Song that's always played during emotional stories

Dots1982

You know the song. Has a wistful air. Always in the background on the radio when emotional letters or stories are read out.

Used more in an ironic way these days.

Anyone know what song I'm talking about. What's the name of it?

Always know that someone is going to die on greys anatomy when they play snow patrol.

This is used a lot, but is a bit more dramatic than the one you may be looking for...it's the theme from Requiem for a Dream.

If you mean the backing music to Our Tune, the thing where a sad letter was read out on BBC Radio (a format adopted by other stations - and hilariously lampooned by Viz

) it's the theme from Romeo & Juliet (the 1960s film adaptation).

There's a rake of versions. It has become a bit naff now, but nice piece of music originally. Great film music composer, Nino Rota (The Godfather theme would be his most famous work).
