The one song that still moves you

Thank you Bathsheba x

Luckygirl, I have never heard of One Moment More, so beautiful

If we're talking Eva Cassidy, then it has to be Fields of Gold.

But top of my weepy list is www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5R-s3laVSs

If you don't know Mindy Smith then check her out on google - amazing singer - Angel Doves is a gem.

Also Richard Strauss Four Last Songs - wonderful!

Adele singing "Million Years Ago" - I can not get past the lyrics "I miss my mother............" without filling up. Just writing this is setting me off

Dedicated to the one I love - it was popular when DH and I first started seeing each other

Without you by Harry Nilsson - reminds of the heartache and pain I felt when DH died.

Everything I Do, by Bryan Adams. Intensely personal for me and still reduces me to tears.
When You Walk Through a Storm, from Carousel.
Many of Queen's songs.

Very .many of Schubert’s bittersweet songs.

Anniebach for you today, which must be hard for you.

Charleygirl I am also very moved by AMAZING GRACE every time!

'Those were the days of our lives' by Queen.

What is it about sad songs that make them so EXTRA beautiful? I also love EVERYBODY HURTS and Springsteen's PHILADELPHIA. My daughters groan at me and say these are songs that bring on doom. I don't agree.

Amazing Grace still brings tears to my eyes. My parents loved it so it was played at their funerals which were only a few weeks apart.

'For the good times' Matt Munro. (I think)

Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol .

Time to Say Goodbye - Sarah Brightman
What a Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong
Dedicated To The One I Love - Mamas and Papas

'Dance with my Father again' by Luther Vandross amongst others.
'Wonderful Tonight' by Eric Clapton.
Danny Boy.
I am weeping just thinking about them!

'Myfanwy'. it was sung to me as a lullaby and I sang it to my daughters as a lullaby.

'She'. The last record my husband bought me

'12th of Never' for my beloved daughter on this her birthday

Without You, Harry Nilsson - the one and only record bought for me as a romantic gesture (by my first love).
Sound of Silence another one you just have to listen to, the last rendition I loved was done by Disturbed - such a distinctive version.

Me too for Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.
What good taste we have.

giulia it was written by Ewan McColl ,folk singer and father of Kirsty McColl of the Christmas in New York song with the Pogues

So many songs, these days. 'Sound of silence', 'Everybody Hurts' and 'The first time ever I saw your face' come to mind straight away.
I haven't heard some of the others mentioned here. I'll have to listen to them and have a weep, I think.

Artyfarty Must listen to this version - she wrote Songbird, I think. Lemongrove and Poshgran - I agree that "The First Time Ever I saw Your Face" is another heartstopper. Wasn't it written by Flack's partner?

Bridge over troubled water

A male voice choir singing Myfanwy or the Welsh National Anthem

The hymn Abide with me

The 23rd Psalm ( played at my sons funeral so upsets me every time) Ditto Once in Royal David's City because of the words

Paolo Nutini's Autumn Leaves ,about his late GF .

Music is a huge part of my life and so many that really make me emotional

Bridge Over Troubled Water, Simon & Garfunkel.
It was played at my first boyfriend's DF's funeral and I still can't hear it now without blubbing!

Naomi by Ralph Mctell absolutely beautiful.
