  Hungry Like The Wolf by Duran Duran.
  
  Don't Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult.
  
  Bright Eyes by Art Garfunkel.
  
  I won't bore anyone by going into the reasons why. Although in the case of Bright Eyes I am quite sure it is pretty obvious...

  Whereas my previous entries may have been slightly flippant, there is one particular song... when listened to by viewing the accompanying video... that always makes we well up slightly; Johnny Cash's cover of Nine Inch Nails 'Hurt'... here on YouTube (especially at the 3min mark, I sometimes have trouble catching a breath)

  Shipbuilding by Elvis Costello and A Man Needs A Maid by Neil Young. Even on a happyclappy day the final plaintive line of this song has me blubbing like a baby.

  "Perfect Day", by Lou Reed. It was my best friend's favourite, and was played at his funeral 11 years ago. Cracks me up, every time.

  Agreed! Always makes me cry, although I prefer the Robert Wyatt version as I adore his voice.

  This, and Dear Jessie by Madonna. If I even think about the first one for too long, or hear the opening bars, I start to well up.
