Songs that make you!

My heart ..so blue... by Erasure . Young man I know. His wife died leaving a young child aged two. Had been very ill for a year. They knew she was dying. Played this at the funeral. So sad.

She. the last record my husband bought me before he was killed.

Myfanwy. My Grampa sang it to me, I sang it to my daughters and my grandchildren as a lullaby.

Evergreen. Both my daughters chose it as their first dance at their weddings

Memories because

everyone. He had recorded it on a CD and I sit and play it sometimes when I want to reminisce, it’s very healing for me to have a good cry now and then.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version of Over the Rainbow. If you haven't heard it try to google it. A Hawaiian version with ukulele - it's beautiful.

Also Sade's By Your Side. Even though this was meant as a lover's song, I hear it as a mother's song. When my son was going through a rough patch I heard this and fell apart.

I hope this thread doesn’t upset too much and sorry if it does but music is so evocative isn’t it. And healing

Luckygirl

I did utterly haunting. Never heard of her before how beautiful

Tanith , hugs x

That was in 1980

When a Child is Born, by Johnnie Mathis.
and
Bright Eyes, by Art Garfunkel. Our beloved cat Patch had just died, we were on the way to the vet`s to have her cremated, and it was playing on the car radio.

I am so sorry I used to follow you on the childminding boards. My love and hugs to you and a beautiful song xxx

K C and the Sunshine Band ‘Give it Up’.
DH played this to me many times before we actually moved in together and sadly he died a few months ago and if this comes on the radio I dissolve into sobs as it takes me right back to those days when we were falling in love. I had it played at his funeral.
