    Thats exactly what I had when I started this thread. I smiled and cried at the beauty of the bravery and heroism in the song.

    Dire Straits - you and your friends (live) /well i've been let down a couple of times, and this song hooks in right at that. "are you gonna come around, or are you gonna let me down"

    But the absolute tearjerker of alltimes
    Bob Marley - Redemption Songs (acoustic version) everytime i could wheep! and have.
    this song is ultraspecial for me, i recantly lost one of my best friends, and this song....-*sniff sniff* excuse me....

    May I ask why you associate redemption song with the death of a friend?

    all roads lead to bob marley...
    He was a rasta, Bob marley was his father.
    we played Redemption songs at his funerall, the music was my task, since we had many discussions about life, death & music.
    that song the acoustic version is just so huanting, with that beautifull intermezzo & then the lyrics a agian...so magical

    Porthishead was also played... It's a fire...

    I want that to be played at my funeral aswell for my sister

    It's a fire,
    These dreams they pass me by,
    The salvation I desire,
    Keeps getting me down.

    'Cause we need to,
    Recognize mistakes,
    For time and again.

    So let it be known,
    For what we believe in,
    I can see no reason,
    For it to fail.

    'Cause this life is a farce,
    I can't breathe through this mask,
    Like a fool,
    So breathe on, sister, breathe on.

    From this oneself,
    Testify or tell,
    It's fooling us now,

    So let it be known,
    For what we believe in,
    I can see no reason,
    For it to fail.

    'Cause this life is a farce,
    I can't breathe through this mask,
    Like a fool
    So breathe on, little sister, breathe on,
    Oh, so breathe on, little sister, breathe on

    Melanie Safka - Beautiful people hits me almost everytime i hear it:

    You live in the same world as I do
    But somehow I never noticed
    You before today
    I'm ashamed to say

    Beautiful people
    We share the same back door
    And it isn't right
    We never met before
    But then
    We may never meet again
    If I weren't afraid you'd laugh at me
    I would run and take all your hands
    And I'd gather everyone together for a day
    And when we gather'd
    I'll pass buttons out that say
    Beautiful people
    Then you'd never have to be alone
    'Cause there'll always be someone
    With the same button on as you
    Include him in everything you do.

    Beautiful people
    You ride the same subway
    As I do ev'ry morning
    That's got to tell you something
    We've got so much in common
    I go the same direction that you do
    So if you take care of me
    Maybe I'll take care of you

    Beautiful people
    You look like friends of mine
    And it's about time
    That someone said it here and now
    I make a vow that some time, somehow
    I'll have a meeting
    Invite ev'ryone you know
    I'll pass out buttons to
    The ones who come to show
    Beautiful people
    Never have to be alone
    'Cause there'll always be someone
    With the same button on as you
    Include him in ev'rything you do
    He may be sitting right next to you
    He may be beautiful people too
    And if you take care of him
    Maybe I'll take care of you
    And if you take care of him
    Maybe I'll take care of you...

    only 3 songs i can think of
    first: from beatles - yesterday and eleanor rigby i listen to them when i fail when i feel realy down and i cry it's very releasing

    them from my native country song Suojelus Enkeli (translates guarding angel)
    i like mostly cover by viikate
    it's song in finnish it's a special song since my mother used to sing it to me
    when i was young and it allways reminds me of my childhood wich is bith bad and good.

    The one song I can remember shedding a tear on when listening to was Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt.

    *edit*
    Wish you Were Here had never really made me choke up before, but at the Live 8 concert, finally getting to see Pink Floyd together, and with Roger dedicating it to Syd, that did make me choke up a little bit.

    Black Muddy River by the dead. last song jerry ever sang with the dead, and its just beautiful and the lyrics are so emotional. if u hear the live version of his last performance, he fucks up a lot which makes it even more emotional.
