    Songs that make you want to cry

    Sometimes I just feel like shedding tears, you know washing my eyeballs so I look for sad songs, slow songs, any kind of song that gives goosebumps and makes the heart beat faster..... For me its:

    Frank Sinatra - Moon River
    ABBA - Fernando
    Ruth Etting - 10 cents a dance
    Pavarotti/Celine Dion/ Sarah Brightman - AVE MARIA (I can't help but cry when I hear this song.....Especially with Pavarotti's tone, Oh God!!!!!!! am shedding tears just thinking about it)
    Sarah Brightman - Pie Jesu (Lord have mercy, that just tears my heart)

    Ok people your list
    Oh squiggly line in my eye fluid.
    I see you lurking there on the periphery of my vision.
    But when I try to look at you, you scurry away.
    Are you shy, squiggly line?
    Why only when I ignore you, do you return to the center of my eye?
    Oh, squiggly line, it’s alright, you are forgiven

    Celine Dion holds the key to many hearts. Her lyrics and voice makes any song touches your soul. "My Heart will go on," "Power of Love" ..... etc makes me feel like a woman in my heart.

    Did you say Ruth Etting mamarita? We talking songs from the 20's here. Those are very old songs, I read about Ruth long time ago, but i never heard anyone mention her name until now. I read that the man she married ruined her.

    NOT BLUE!!!!!!!


    Yes I said RUTH ETTING. Music should never age, I love JAZZ, and I love the old jazz songs, am talking the days of GERSHWIN as a writer, MILES DAVIES as an instrumentalist, FRANK SINATRA as a singer, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, Peggy Lee, Judy Garland could go on and on. But Ruth Etting's TEN CENTS A DANCE rocks

    you are right bigmomma. songs in igbo are usually so beautiful. They make me want to learn the language.

    Celine Dion is a legend in my eyes.

    I love 'if that's what it takes' by Celine dion but what makes me cry is 'Fly' again by Celine. My best friend died four years ago in a road accident and every time i listen to that song, I can't believe she's gone and can't help but cry.
