FabSwingers.com forum: What song makes you cry?

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

I'm in a soppy mood today (hangover + family crisis has made me little miss soppy!)

So what song guarantees to make you blart your eyes out?

Most of the Les Mis soundtrack does for me but the biggest one that makes me cry is definitely the Defying Gravity from Wicked - the words in it about not accepting someone else's limits make me all bleary eyed!

The Fray - How to save a life.

It doesnt make me cry..but I do get engrossed in deep thought though.

Madonna's "I remember" has the same effect.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

Slipping through my Fingers by Abba. Its about a girl growing up and the mother being unhappy that they haven't spent enough time together. My daughter is about to leave home so its a bit poignant for me right now.

Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol brings a year to my eye as it was my best m8's favourite song at the time he was killed in a car crash and was played at his funeral.

Not soppy but very emotional.

Fareham

Good Riddance (Time of your life) by Greenday.

My nephew (20 at the time) was teaching his dad the chords on the guitar. A couple of weeks later my nephew died in tragic circumstances... that song was played at his funeral and the words couldn't have been more poignant.

I always get a lump in my throat when I hear it.

This one gets me every time too, my baby girl moved out last year, it wasnt as difficult as I anticipated but this song always brings a lump to my throat when I hear it just because she has grown up so quickly.

The Clapton song is called Tears in Heaven....as a tribute to his son Conor who as a toddler plunged to his death from a window of a high-rise New York apartment.
