    "Walk a little strighter Daddy" - because I've been there
    "Concrete Angel" - because I never want anyone to have to be there
    "Dare you to Move" - Because it motivates me to be better, to keep moving
    "Don't take the girl" - because I believe in true love.

    all 4 make me cry.

    The traditional "Amazing Grace" chokes me up ever time I hear or try to sing it. It was one of my family's favorite songs. My parents passed away in 1999 and my baby brother passed September 2011.

    Johnny Cash's version of Hurt sends chills down my spine every time I hear it.

    I do love this song, too. His voice is deep and haunting!

    The Birthday Massacre- In the Dark (Posting lyrics because I rarely run into anyone who actually knows who this awesome band is lol. All there music is awesome, but this one reminds me of my ex =)

    All these broken pieces left unglued
    Should never find their way into
    the hands of someone like you

    I'm in the dark
    I'm alone around you
    I've never been here before
    Nobody here to get me through
    Oh, I'm in the dark

    Every minute shared is never mine
    Frozen in this fog and hiding every second in time

    I'm in the dark
    I'm alone around you
    I've never been here before
    Nobody here to get me through
    Oh, I'm in the dark

    I'm losing my faith in every way
    That points to you, Oh
    I'm in the dark
    I'm alone around you, Oh
    I'm in the dark

    The more bleak the day
    The less I behave as if
    Everything black can wash away
    Oh can I just trade a dream for a way
    To peel back the shade behind the grey?

    I'm in the dark
    I'm alone around you
    I've never been here before
    Nobody here to get me through
    Oh, I'm in the dark

    Breaking Your Own Heart - Kelly Clarkson

    My daughter was the one who told me to listen to this song and said it reminded her of me. It made me see myself through her eyes and it changed me for the better.

    I'm a classical singer so anything by Bach (particularly his concerto for two violins) or Tchaikovsky's Serenade for strings will really get me. It's the knowledge that there have been human beings in the world with an artistry so brilliant, it's the closest thing to "god" I am able to experience.

    The Birthday Massacre- Looking Glass (also reminds me of my ex...)

    Waiting as I'm wanting to
    Speaking as I'm spoken to
    Changing to your point of view
    Fading as I follow you

    A boyish notion of false emotion
    These words are spoken despite my love
    A fool's devotion was set in motion
    My eyes are open now

    It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
    You hide beneath the physical
    I see it coming
    But I can't defend
    You cut so deep
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is...

    Tell me what I want to say
    Save me for another day
    Break me, it's the game you play
    Hate me as I turn away

    A boyish notion of false emotion
    These words are spoken despite my love
    A fool's devotion was set in motion
    My eyes are open now

    It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
    You hide beneath the physical
    I see it coming
    But I can't defend
    You cut so deep
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is...

    It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
    You hide beneath the physical
    I see it coming
    But I can't defend
    You cut so deep
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is gone
    My belief is...

    Kutless are awesome, aren't they? You should check out Red if you like them. I actually first heard Red at a Kutless concert, ha.

    There are a few...

    Mike & the Mechanics - The Living Years
    Luther Vandross - Dance With My Father (I know it's cheesy!)
    Coldplay - Fix You
    Etta James - At Last, it was my wedding song so it has so many happy memories
    Amazing Grace, there's something about that song that gets me, especially if it's sung acapella. Just beautiful!

    "Funeral" by Saves the Day (I was listening to it yesterday morning and got SO teary eyed!)

    Aww me too! Reminds me of a person gone too soon, and of years spent driving around the great state of NJ to go see all my favorite bands play VFW halls :smile:
