That's on my list too, one of the most beautiful songs ever written imho. I also have In The Ghetto and An American Trilogy from Elvis which never fail to draw a tear.
Other get me a bit weepy songs would include Runrig's Going Home, the Long and Winding Road by The Beatles, The River by Bruce Springsteen, Sinead O'Conner's Nothing Compares 2 U, Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday, and Frank Sinatra/Robbie Williams' version of When I Was.

That'd get on my list too, the sublime Kate and also Everything I Own by Bread. Oh and Cat's in the Cradle by Harry Chapin. And this, from Andrea Botelli and Sarah Brightman. And Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar when Steve Balsamo sings it. And Who Knows Where The Time Goes, Sandy Denny and/or Fairport Convention.

And the hymns Jerusalem and, especially, Abide With Me, specially when they sing them at the Challenge Cup Final at Wembley.

When Juliet Turner sang this on the Town Hall steps in Omagh, after the bombing, I cried like a baby:

I have never once listened to Old Shep without crying. I was listening to my MP3 player on random play the other day and on comes Elvis singing Old Shep. It had been years since I'd heard it and I thought I could take it now. But, no, boo hoo all over again!

Have you heard Nina Simone's take on it ?

Dear Old Nicki by Nicki Minaj, I can relate to that, not the fame part, but the song is about changing yourself and missing your old self, which I can really relate to, because I've changed myself to fit in and I miss the person that I used to be.

I've got a heart of stone generally, but bloody hell Jar of Farts almost makes me blub. The lyrics and story are exceptionally good. How dare you drop me and then want me back.
