Not necessarily my style of music, but it waters my eyes if I ever catch it on.

I have a 6 year old lab that so far has been with me all over the country. Literall, just about every state. We were a certified search and rescue team. We have spent countless hours together in ever climate and weather this nations has. My dog even has flight time in helicopters as well as jets. Truly a remarkable animal. I'm just the guy that gets the dog there. She's the one that does all the work and saves lives. Unfortunately my career moved me into a new position were I couldn't do the SAR thing anymore. So now, she is a highly trained pet that has the easiest retirement any creature on earth could ever ask for.

OK, I'll chime in here because I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet...especially with a good number of Beatles references.

What gets me is watching Dhani...I want to weep for his loss.

Wow indeed. Impressive on a number of levels.

Didn't get me chokey but a very poignant rendition of an emotional & beautiful song nonetheless. Thanks 2 steps for posting, it got favourited immediately.

I mentioned these in another thread a few months ago, but;

"Have A Little Faith In Me" by John Hiatt, and the video for Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt".

These 2 get me every damn time.

I don't get choked up by it, but I always found "She's Leaving Home" to be a bit stirring. The melancholy in that one is strong. Borderline schmaltz, but it still gets me sometimes.

My wife and I love this song. It wasn't our official "first dance" song at our wedding but it was played.

This was our first dance, I love this version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVZSOzQnf_o

Tree 63's "Blessed Be The Name" does it for me. I sang that song many times a day while hospitalized (spinal trauma, couldn't use arms or legs for a couple months). Now that I am back to playing, I always mist up when we play it at church. And I don't care who knows.

Richard Thompson is a brilliant genius. Check out his cover of Britney Spears' "Oops... I Did It Again!" He makes it his own in the best possible way.
+1

"I see angels on Ariels in leather and chrome swooping down from heaven to carry me home..and he gave her one last kiss and died...and he gave her his Vincent to ride..."


RT is an absolute genius.

When I was young, I probably would have said there wasn't a song that made me cry. Maybe, F*ck Like a Beast by W.A.S.P.
But now that I'm older, songs tug on the heartstrings a bit more.

Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits (mainly the guitar leads)
Amazing Love by the Newsboys
Cold and Rainy Day by 10,000 Maniacs
She's Everything by Brad Paisley, but only when I sing it to my wife.

Dave Alvin's "The Man In The Bed"

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

I tried to sing this solo acoustic at a coffee house open mic when my dad was in hospice, and I pretty much completely fell apart. In retrospect, it was a reckless choice under the circumstances.

This one gets me too, and invariably gets my vote in those "saddest song ever" threads:

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

"I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house."

I mean, come on....
