Songs that make you teary

I didn't know that suep. I will look it up.

My mom loved Scarlet Ribbons.

My mum loved Scarlet Ribbons too.
Andy Williams singing Moon River and Telstar by the Tornados both make me teary. I've no idea why but they've had that effect on me since I first heard them when I was about 7 years old.

Lots of songs make me cry but when I hear Land of our Fathers it reminds me of my Welsh mum so I cry.

Also my husbands favourites that were played at his funeral My Life by The Beatles and Forever Young by Bob Dylan upset me.

And many years ago I was in hospital having had a miscarriage at 12 weeks and waiting a D&C by husband requested the hospital radio played for me I just called to say I love you by Stevie Wonder, I sobbed that night and still get upset whenever I hear it.

Go Now - Moody Blues.

Remembering our lovely late Gransnet friend Lucca, who loved everything Italian, this is so beautiful.

The Gaelic song 'An Ataireachd Ard' (The High Swell of the Sea) was performed by the group 'Capercaillie'' as part of the soundtrack of a TV series some years ago. I listen to it and sing along, but seldom get beyond the first verse without weeping tears in remembrance of my childhood. You can still find it on YouTube.

Nice thought Casdon.

Matt Munro - Softly.

Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinead O’Connor takes me straight back to the days & weeks following my mum’s very sudden death in 2001 😢

Apart from several of the above, the BBC music for the London Marathon moves me, and I don't really know why!

Waterloo sunset by the Kinks, to name just one, I used to hang around trafalgar square and surrounds in my early teens with my mates, sadly all left this earth but songs from this time bring back memories of them,can't believe time went so quickly

Oh Casdon that's so lovely- thank you . I am one quarter Italian and have an old lady crush on Andreo Bocelli ( sigh)..

This does it every time.
