    Doesn't make me cry every time, but, about 6 years ago I was listening to Me & Bobby Mcgee, the Janis Joplin vesion and my daughter, who was 14 at the time asked me why I liked the song so much and what did it mean. My fathter had just died and I tried to explain to her how sad my Mom was without him and related the lyric "But, I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for a single yesterday". Then I broke down before I could finish what I was saying. I think I traumatized my daughter.

    I knew you were a big ol' softy!

    Amazing Grace....maybe cause it's usually played at funerals.

    That song was written by one of the most ruthless and wealthiest slave owners from the slave trade when he was on his death bed.

    Only years later, after he gave up the slave trade, repented, and became a minister. Is there no room in your life for penance? http://www.snopes.com/religion/amazing.asp

    So that justifies his past? I guess it would in some people's eyes. I have no hell or heaven to put anyone in, I leave that up to the Good LORD.

    Well, I won't get into a religious debate and hijack this thread. If you'd like to do that, you can PM me. Suffice it to say it would be inherently Christian to accept that he repented his sins.

    The song can still be quite moving, especially when played on the bagpipes.

    ^ this. The great thing about songs is that it doesn't have to mean the same thing to everyone. I have my own sins for why I love this song.

    Apparently if you become a "born again" it doesn't matter what your past may have been. You found GOD and that's all that matters so yeah. It does justify his past.

    "Chasing cars" by Snow Patrol. After I was diagnosed with cancer I got in the car and that was what was on the radio. I go right back to that moment anytime I hear that song.

    Also, I'm pretty sure that the John Legend song "All of me" is going to make me cry forever. It already does. My hubby has had some health problems lately including a blood clot in his leg, and it hit me one day a couple weeks ago that I could lose him and I can't even picture losing him. And of course, :sad: . Every time. Luckily, hubs is on the mend.

    Don't think this was mentioned - "Dance With My Father" by Luther Vandross. It's about his father, who died young. And then so did he. Sad all around.
