Songs that make you cry

[Kulindahr]

Every now and then I hear a song on the radio that brings tears, sometimes serious tears. The number one for me -- it always makes me cry, and hard -- is "Friends", by Michael W. Smith.

What songs make you cry?

 

[DiverDude]

The Baby by Blake Shelton

100 Years by Five for Fighting.

I don't have one that consistently does it. Often "My Old Kentucky Home" on Derby Day will bring a tear or two.

Brian McKnight's "One Last Cry" already put me into tears no matter what time of day it's played.

This one can get to me at times.

 

[GL]

It's his signature piece and every time I hear it I am saddened because he's gone.

 

[looseliam]

Jeff Buckley's cover of Cohen's "Hallelujah"

"Dance with my father" by Luther Vandross. I first heard it just after my father died, and this part in particular does it for me because it is spot on.....

Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my momma cried for him
I pray for her even more than me...
I pray for her even more than me.....

I know I'm praying for much too much,
But could you send The only man she loved.
I know you don't do it usually,
But dear Lord she's dying,
To dance with my father again.

Another song that means a lot to me, though it doesn't make me cry now, is "Elton's Song" by Elton John. This fitted how I felt when I was about 17, in the closet, and had a major crush on a boy I saw every week at the railway station.
