Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears

what a great list.  i would add kilkelly, ireland by the great mick maloney.

This always brings a tear to my eye

Pale Blue Eyes-Sheryl Crow and EmmyLou Harris

Dame Janet Baker singing the role of the Angel in Elgar's Gerontius : Part II No 8 "Softly and gently" under Sir John Barbirolli. To think she had to audition for the part !!!. Then again there is Elgar's Sea Pictures, which nobody has managed to perform it better IMHO. 

There is an anecdote that Janet likes to relate. Apparently she and her husband were listening to a "young" mezzo singing Wagner on the car radio. She thought she was "rather good" and the announcer confirmed that it was indeed Janet Baker singing !!

Harry Chapin - Cats in the Cradle (even the Ugly Kid Joe version isn’t bad)

The Beatles - She’s Leaving Home (our daughter moved to Singapore)

John Lennon - Beautiful Boy (our son grew up)

Lucinda's cover of Jimi's "Angel."

Neirher set nor drum.
