Pop Songs - which ones stir your emotions?

nanaseaside - radar love

A Different Corner - George Michael
Third Finger Left Hand by Martha Reeves & The Vandellas
Je T'aime -most sexy record ever
I also love Slipping Through my Fingers because it reminds me of my daughter;

We were jokingly discussing what we want played at our funerals and I want Place in the Sun by Stevie Wonder and A Restless life by Abba which might cause some confusion because the first line sounds just like A Wrestler's life but it should give everyone a laugh!

Thanks susieb. Happy carefree 1970's. Nanas rock! I guess we're all still 17 inside? Wish my kids could have seen me back then (how I was before I had 'em).

Many of the songs that make me feel happy, get my feet tapping or evoke fond memories have already been mentioned - some of them several times. However, there are songs that arouse quite a different sort of emotion and send me flying to the off switch on the radio - A Whiter Shade of Pale and the egregious Mull of Kintyre being two of them.

feetle I remember "Little Girl Blue"........ wonderful!

Ella46 - Just listened to a concert version on Youtube - and now I'm a soggy mess - need a tissue... it stirred my emotions all right - like a liquidiser...

A very short song, by a band called Hatfield and the North, called "It didn't matter Anyway". Always brings a tear. The music to this track is very gentle

It didn't matter anyway,
We'll meet again another day,
Till then, keep well,
You'll be in my dreams.
Goodbye, goodbye, 'bye for now.
The time has come to leave you,
Please don't feel alone.
Now that we've met
There'll be a way
To reach you and say
Never mind,
It didn't matter anyway.

feetle I just listened to Nina too, and it was beautiful, but I'm not sure it's what I was thinking of

To be honest, Ella46, the way she developed that performance the original song was a bit buried!

Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do? Old girl, you're through
Sit there and count your little fingers
Unlucky little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you
It's time you knew
All you can count on is the raindrops
That fall on little girl blue

No use, old girl, you may as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy
To cheer little girl blue?

Rodgers & Hart, 1935

Nanaseaside. I love listening to Popmaster when I get chance but never brave enough to ring in. When were you on? I love Motown too as it was my growing up music!

Michael Jackson one day in your life he died tragically year my daughter cut me out and it makes me cry the lyrics
One day in your life you'll remember the love we used to share
I hope she does!
Also Adele someone like you
Hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but wanted to see your face to let you know for me it is nt over!

Also like buddy holly it does nt matter anymore bit more upbeat!

Oh do give it a go seasider! I was on last New Year's Eve (my birthday). I really enjoyed it and Ken was so nice. I do believe he packed and posted the mp3 player especially for me. I still play along at home and do OK, as long as there aren't too many post 1986 questions...

John Denver -specially 'Annie's Song'.
I saw him perform in Cardiff shortly before he died.Audience mainly over 50s

Oh yes maniac John Denver was love.y and Annie's song s very special to me.

Send me the pillow that you dream on by Dean Martin is one of my favourites.
