Problem with closing my eyes is I can never find the 'close browser' button when the Avril Latrine song comes on.

I cried like a baby listening to a live rendition of "so f****** easy, (repeat several times)" by the Old Trafford choir. Not because of the beautiful ballad but because it was too true from my teams viewpoint. I feel another tear coming on thinking about it:bigcry

Still we probably tired them out a bit before they come to Glasgow on November 5th:rolleyes:

Re: Songs that will make you cry...
 
A little off topic, but any song sung on these "I want to be a star because my pet dog died, and I deserve to be famous" shows, makes me cry.......in fact it makes me howl at the sheer drivel these shows pump out week-in - week-out.

Sorry, had to be said.

Some good songs there Media Boy, what about "The long and winding road"?

I feel the same when I hear any Rap song ( I think the is a "C" missing in this sentence ) especially when you hear it emanating from the average chavs direction.

A personal tear jerker.

Our son chose the closing music for his Grandad's funeral and we were all in tears when we heard Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's version of They can't take that away from me.

It's a song that described Dad to a tee and nobody left their seat until the music ended. Although I tracked it down on youtube to be able to post the link on here I haven't been able to sit and listen to more than the first few cords.

Soundgarden (that be featuring Chris Cornell) - The Day I Tried To Live. I remember being up at 2am, watching 'Raw Power' or whatever it was called then and seeing the rushes to this video, and thought it was the most gorgeous video, and stunning song. I was lucky enough to see them for my first ever gig was the london album launch gig at the Shepherd's Bush Empire, which some lovely person sent me on dvd earlier this year! :hyper:

Samuel Barber's 'Adagio For Strings' (not some crappy remix)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV3SHBFyDZM

in my mind, the most beautiful and heartfelt piece of music ever written. You simply cannot imagine a movement like this without it coming from the heart. the saddest piece of music. this video does it no justice. you really need to hear it live to feel the pain and heartbreak in there.

Works better with shots from Platoon imo.

On a 'positive' note: I'll contribute two polar extremes:

My 'best song ever' for a couple of decades: New Dawn Fades by Joy Division.

And a wonderful love song by Leonard Cohen through the lovely voices of the Webb Sisters. This sent shivers down my spine when I had the privilege of seeing it performed live.

I couldn't comment - never seen Platoon. I find the piece one of those 'shut-your-eyes-and-listen' ones. it doesn't need imagery imo. it detracts I feel, which is why I mentioned listening to it live. :)
