Not just the first time you heard them but one that constantly move you. to me it is basically two. To Much Love Will Kill You-Queen. Just knowing the story behind it and I was moved but the first time I heard Freddie sing it I broke down. If I have to go-Tom Waits. Love Waits and when my brother passed was the first ime I heard this one. I broke down hard as it is somethings my bro would say if he had the chance. I got others but what are yours? |

Cats in the Cradle. My dad passed a couple years back and now my son heads off to college in August. When I was the young kid in the first part of that song it was all good but now im getting to be the old guy at the end. |

Tom Waits corners the market on heart-tugging songs. "take it with me", "martha", and the one chas mentioned. there are plenty of others too. "up from under" - the wallflowers "keep me in your heart" - warren zevon "it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday" - boyz ii men "gloomy sunday" - billie holiday |

another one for me is the song "Orange Sky" by Alexi Murdoch. Its a nice song on its own merit but what makes it a very sad song for me is that a number of years ago a high school acquaintance passed away unexpectedly leaving his wife and 3 young kids, and a friend of his made a slide show chronicling his life to this song and posted it on Facebook, and i have to tell you it was about the saddest damn thing I ever watched and I didn't even really know the guy. |

Pink Floyd - "Lost for Words" off 'The Division Bell' It describes my relationship to a "T" with my father, he got divorced from my mother when I was at a very young age, went and got married to another woman, had two more kids (whom I've never met BTW) and wanted nothing to do with me... When I extended the olive branch when I got married umpteen years back trying to invite him (at my Wife's request), he basically told me to fuck off. |

The correct answer is any ballad if you are sad enough. Especially piano songs. |

I won't step on the land mine of pre-Waters departure and post-Waters departure, Dave Gilmour Floyd, but yea, 'The Division Bell' is an excellent album overall. The final song (after "Lost for Words"), "High Hopes" is another favorite of mine. |

100 years by Five for Fighting didn’t mean that much to me when it came out but really strikes a chord as I’ve gotten older. |

Usually about once or twice a year I’ll be driving home from work, maybe it was a good day, maybe it was a difficult day. Then “That’s My Job” by Conway Twitty will come on the radio and I’ll cry uncontrollably and realize what it’s all about. |

Brick by Ben Folds Skin by Rascal Flatts On a much different note... Pretty much any father-daughter song. I’ll be Your Man by Zac Brown Band, You’re Gonna Miss This by Trace Adkins, There Goes my Life by Kenny Chesney to name a few. |

Say Hello To Heaven https://youtu.be/SXOzGY46In0 Came out not long after my dad died. It's always brought the tears. Just like the scene from Princess Bride, "you killed my father...prepare to die." |

The Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics came out a little before my dad died and I still well up a bit when I hear it. I was a teen so we didnt really see eye to eye at the time. |
