Any songs other than GL that sometimes make you want to cry?

(Brad Paisley)s "When I Get Where I'm Goin'" will pretty much choke me up every time. (It was played both times at my cousin's funerals :( )

Can't Break It To My Heart (Tracey Lawrence)
Someday (Nickelback)
Hurt (Johnny Cash)
Bridge Over Troubled Waters (Johnny Cash)
IYCRMM (Johnny Cash)
Measure Of A Man (Elton John)

These are other songs that can make me sad if I'm in a certain mood.

'To make you feel my love' by Dylan but NOT sung by him (come to think of it, whenever I hear Dylan sing, I feel like crying!)

I've said it before but "Seasons In The Sun" just instantly dpresses me and makes me cry like a kid!

In fact when I was a kid in 1974,I didn't "get" the lyrics but somehow my mind grasped the mood of the song and it made me cry.
My Mom & Dad could not understand what it was I was crying about,heck,I didn't know myself!

Others are,
"You Needed Me" by Anne Murray
"The Three Bells" by The Browns (1957/58)
"If" by Bread did for a long time but not anymore.

"Calypso" by John Denver brings tears but not of sadness but because I get so into it when I listen. :D

"Concerto In D-Major" by Vivaldi used to make me cry,until when I fell in love some years back.
I came to realize it was actually quite a beautiful romantic song.
(I played it on "our 1st night" :redface: ). :)

If you're talking about making your eyes water, I've had some other songs to do that. :)

Dancin' When The Stars Go Blue by (Tim McGraw) does that.

Any John Denver song I see him singing on TV makes me cry. His music is so beautiful and it makes me so sad that he's gone.

Same here with Jim Croce.

and Harry Chapin. :(
I LOVE Jim Croce ... Time in a Bottle ... that does it for me, and so many others.
