    "if you only knew" by shinedown
    "love will keep us alive" by scorpions
    ...and pretty much every hair band ballad of the 80s will get to me, too.

    My Wish, by Rascal Flatts. Gets me every time. I think of my son, and think how accurate it describes what I want for him.

    'Lullaby' by the Dixie Chicks- I used to play it when my youngest was a just a tiny baby when I'd give him his baths. It just reminds me of being a new mom and how quickly my kids are growing up.

    'Dance with my Father'. I like Celine Dion's version. I can't even hear that song without thinking of my dad and getting weepy :heart:

    100 Years by Five for Fighting.
    The Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics.

    Christmas songs:
    All I Want For Christmas is You by Vince Vance and the Valiants.
    The Christmas Shoes by NewSong. Shameless, sappy, total tearjerker of a song.
    Believe by Josh Groban.
    O Holy Night by Josh Groban.
    (Heck, anything by Josh Groban.)

    Michael Bublé and some of his darn Christmas songs. I need a winter fling.
  • Oh there are so many. My immortal by evanescence is really hard as I recently lost someone I loved dearly. Most songs sung @ church too especially Ava Maria..... 2 notes in and I'm a goner.
  • Insensitive by Jann Arden ....especially when I watch the video for the song

    The opening music for Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, part 2 does, coupled with the scene of Snape.
    The end music for Schindler's List tends to do it.
    Also, most music by Nightwish and Within Temptation.

    'Watch Over You' and 'Wonderful Life'
    Both by Alter Bridge
    They make me cry. So beautiful yet so sad.

    At Christmastime, it;s always "The Christmas Shoes" that makes be bawl.

    True story: Several years ago, I was in a WalMart, and I heard this voice that blew me away...Josh Groban singing "To Where You Are", a song about a man who is mourning his deceased love. I stood there like an idiot, bawling my eyes out. That same week, I met my now husband, who had lost his first wife three years prior.

    If you're reading this - Tim McGraw

    Amazing Graze on Bagpipes. Probably because the first time I heard it was when I was in college, standing on a hill in a cemetery way out in the middle of nowhere, watching two friends being lowered into the ground.

    Anything about America. I cry during almost every National Anthem, God Bless America, My Country 'Tis of Thee, saying the Pledge of Allegiance. When I see a convoy (sp?) of military vehicles go down the road, I feel the sudden urge to pull my car over, get out, and salute as they pass. I'm a total patriotic sap.
  • Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Riviera Paradise". IDKY but that one always makes me tear up.
