Music has been making me cry since I was a child. Music is great though, it can make you cry and it can make you dance! I prefer to dance, I've cried enough.

There have been many songs that evoked tears from me, but the one that always chokes me up is "The Prayer" when sung by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion.

Oh, I almost forgot.....Leonard Bernstein's "Somewhere" is a tear-jerker, too.

I just thought of a few more songs that make me feel like crying. "Moon River" is one. It's a mournful song that makes you think of time that has passed you by that you can never get back. The other one is the beautiful aria "Song To The Moon". One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Very emotional. Also, " Adagio For Strings" is very moving. I first heard it while watching "Platoon" & have never forgotten it.

Madonna's cover of American Pie. That really was the day the music died.

Yep, I well up whenever I hear Streisand do "Evergreen". There is a memory attached to it for me.

Found myself tearing up listening to Paul McCartney singing 'Hey, Jude', 'Eleanor Rigby' and 'Yesterday' on the PBS special 'Paul McCartney at the White House'.

Lots of these but mostly Living Prayer sung by Alison Krauss.

Fifteen by taylor swift is a very true,sad and powerful song.it makes me cry every time it gets to the part when she said abigale gave every thing she had to a boy who changed his mined.it reminds me of me and my first boyfriend. My boyfriend now really cares about me and thankfully he was my first kiss and not my last(first)one.

callie, you're right about "Song to the Moon"; it's quiet moving. It's from a Dvorak opera called Rusalka, by the way. Here's a vocal version:

Here's an instrumental version:

(I always do better when I can read the title, then hear the music. I learn more that way, too.)

I meant to say "quite moving," although it is a quiet piece. :)

I heard "Daniel" today in the middle of a hectic work day. It lifted my spirits and then made me well up a bit...
