    Dance With My Father
    You are My Sunshine
    Layla
    The Leader of the Band
    Any Eric Clapton song from the 70's reminds me of my dad. So does Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. (Cry instantly when I hear any of 'em.)
    Also most Christmas songs (even Frosty at times) and Patriotic songs.
    My kids were just making fun of me the other day because The Little Drummer Boy set me off.
    Yep, I'm a sap.:blushing:

    "Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles. Every time I hear it, I reminds me of how I met my wife for the first time.

    not sure if it's been said yet...

    "Alyssa Lies" by Jason Michael Carroll.

    It's a country song about a little girl who is abused at home... makes me tear up every single time.

    He Didn't Have To Be -- Brad Paisley

    I am the adoptive father of two, so this song means a lot to me.


    awww - you must be a great Dad, then, if it resonates so much :)
  • At the present moment it would have to be "Don't You Remember?" by Adele. Reminds me of someone that I miss.

    Don't You Wanna Stay by Jason Aldean.
  • anything with bagpipes-- tear right up-- my kids make fun of me, my 10 yo likes to put bagpipes on in the house just to mess with me... little b@strd.

    Yes, nothing gets me to tear up faster than Amazing Grace on the bagpipes!

    But after losing both grandparents last summer, Rascal Flatts' "I Won't Let Go" and "Let it Hurt," along with Miranda Lambert's "Over You" will bring me to a dead stop real quick.

    "Amazing Grace"- On the Harmonica-It was played at my Grandmothers funeral.

    I've been to funerals with bagpipers playing AG on a distant hill. its crushing but for me Amazing Grace has warm, fuzzy memories. If you've ever been on a windjammer barefoot cruise they played some version of it every time they hoisted the sails.. so story of how AG came to be written touched a note in the windjammer founders. so when the sails started to flap and the ship started to gain speed... well, remarkable memories..

    I won't give up by Jason Mraz and Fix you by Coldplay
  • Closer- Kings of Leon

    It's a sexy as hell song, I find. But It makes me tear up, i feel it in my soul.
