[tlongII]

Mookie's raps always move me emotionally.

[easjer]

There are a handful.

I Will Be Here by Steven Curtis Chapman always makes me cry, and moreso now, since it was our first dance song, right after my family's toasts which made me cry.

What a Good Boy by Barenaked Ladies

On the other side of the scale - Standing Outside the Fire by Garth Brooks makes me grin and feel good.

[2Blonde]

Most of Jim Croce's songs and the version of "Somewhere over the Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. It's the one they played on ER when Dr. Green died. It gets me every time. In fact I have it playing in the background right now.
Oh yeah..I absolutely love Ave Maria by Celine Dion even though she personally really gets on my nerves.

[Sapphire]

What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong

[pache100]

Elvis- You've Lost That Loving Feeling
Yes. But, better by the Righteous Brothers.
Love Me Tender by Elvis



Righteous Brothers- Unchained Melody
:tu

I'm Not Lisa - Jessi Coulter

[pache100]

The rape song moves you?

Dust on the Bottle by David Lee Murphy is about date rape; it was a big hit in country music. I never liked that song.

[ChumpDumper]

"Lullaby Requiem" by Neil Finn is just a heartbreaker of a song written after the passing of his mother.

"Big Bird" -- Eddie Floyd's tribute to Otis Redding after his death in a plane crash, written by Floyd while he was waiting to board a flight to the funeral.

"Cristo Redentor" -- Written by Duke Pearson, inspired by the statue of Jesus over Rio de Janeiro he saw flying into the city. Performed by trumpeter Donald Byrd and a gospel chior singing a wordless melody. Goosebumps.

"The Unfaithful Servant" by the Band. As literal or allegorical as you like -- great performance all around, instrumental and vocal.

[midgetonadonkey]

I also have a very strong emotional attatchment to Peter Cetera's Glory of Love because of it's presence in Karate Kid II. Daniel-san risked his life to save Kumiko, the attractive Okinawan that amazingly spoke great English. Who didn't cry when he fought Chozen to near death and came out victorious?

[ShoogarBear]

I always am moved by Mr. Holland's Opus.

[SpursWoman]

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!







~The Weather Girls

[2Blonde]

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get

I just thought of you... All of the sudden that song came on the TV. It was on a commercial with Kirsti Alley a moment ago. :spin

I think the first I ever heard it was on an episode of Ally McBeal ... the theme-song one. :lol

[Vashner]

[hussker]

Sukiyaki - Kyu Sakamoto (First song I learned to sing to my wife in Japanese)

[Notorious H.O.P.]

creep by radiohead


Great song...applies to MOST guys.

My first instinct is .....Damaged.....

But on further review....I think maybe there hasn't been enough attention paid to the lyrics.

I'll side with Manny on this one. :lol

[Sapphire]

Dust on the Bottle by David Lee Murphy is about date rape; it was a big hit in country music. I never liked that song.

Can someone help me out on this one? :wtf I even went and looked up the lyrics and I still don't get date rape out of them.

Can someone help me out on this one? :wtf I even went and looked up the lyrics and I still don't get date rape out of them.

Yeah, I have to disagree with that statement. I've heard that song a dozen times and I don't believe its about date rape.

I forgot u2- Stuck in a moment

Purple Heather by Van Morrison.

You Can't Be Too Strong by Graham Parker (kind of song that makes people pause and ponder)

[MannyIsGod]

Mother by Lennon is a good one.

[Jekka]

Conway Twitty - That's My Job
Rascal Flatts - Skin
Patty Loveless - How Can I Help You to Say Goodbye

And maybe later I'll hit them guts and maybe at night you'll be catchin the bus
Worsem ass nigga keep blowin up ya phone can't get the picture won't leave you alone

Chew a nigga up in the Bentley coupe toes curlin up like Roman noodles


She get it so wet she make it so warm
And on a lame brain mane she got a lotta charm
She swallow it like a pill and makin them pay them bills
For another nigga kid cell phone car and crib
He payin for the dinner for him her and all her friends
And when he spend the night her dog in the bed he in the den
But still he say he love her wouldn't put his mom above her
He did all this after the first time he ever fucked her


Don't ask me nigga you nasty nigga you had ya tongue in my ass nigga
And you a pro so I know it wasn't the first time and it won't be the last nigga
And aint't tryna to act like it wasn't all that when you be sick when I'll fall back
Name any piece of furniture in ya crib and I can guarantee we fuck on that
See when you hooked you know that it's.. so good you gotta go back
Then it seem like any other chick that you try to stick ya dick in be so wack
And for some reason it won't stay up but when you wit me it be way up
And you'll never say no when I call yo phone you already be ready to lay up


He's a lame ass nigga hollerin that he pimpin the broad (pimpin the broad)
But found out he was spendin amp on the broad (amp on the broad)
Ohh how a nigga be wit that flauge (wit that flauge)
Hannndcuffin hoes that'll do that job (do that job)
Sloooob on my knob mane get that change (get that change)
Ain't no shame in her gotdamn game (gotdamn game)
All she think about she wanna please her mane (please her mane)
Bringin back double drivin him insane (him insane)

"Tonight I Wanna Cry" -Keith Urban

I went to go see him in concert yesterday and we wanted him to play that song so badly, but he didn't. He played another one though that I had totally forgotten about. But it was one that definitely moved me emotionally, I used to play it all the time after my breakup. It also reminded me of current things.
"You'll think of me" -Keith Urban
I actually ran into my ex last night cause he was there to see him too. (Its the only country artist he liked cause I introduced him to his music) Of ALL the space on the rodeo grounds we had to meet in the same spot :lol Its funny how that happens.
But thats a great song, as well as tonight I wanna cry. I hope to see him in concert again, the guy is awesome.

"I went out driving trying to clear my head
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
Is not knowing what we could have been
What we should have been
So

Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me

Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'm gonna be alright
While you're sleeping with your pride
Wishing I could hold you tight
I'll be over you
And on with my life"
:tu

[PakiDan]

Boing!

I feel you. Of all at the rodeo, I wanted to see him. I would have wanted to him to sing "Tonight I Wanna Cry" too. I've cried many times to that and "You'll Think of Me". I'm trying to get my bf into him but no luck yet.

When I first got the Be Here CD way back when, instantly after I heard "Tonight I Wanna Cry" I loved it...
