    The Dance - Garth Brooks Song I dedicated to my Mom who died 2 weeks before my Brothers wedding...


    Somewhere over the Rainbow - with a Ukulele Played at my 14 yr old Hawaiian Nephew who died of a very rare cancer...



    It may seem strange that these songs would be sad, But to me I cant listen to either one without crying my eyes out...

    Oh I am so sorry for your losses!!! Those songs make me cry and I don't have any associations to them like that, so I can only imagine!!!! They are both beautiful songs!!! :heart:

    Aqua - My Mamma Said.

    Don't let the fact that it's Aqua aka the Barbie Girl band fool you. This song is hauntingly beautiful, and I was in tears.

    Shane Mack's song "More than this". The lyrics are perfect. "If this is all we ever were, at least I loved enough to hurt".

    Not for everyone, but Tom Waits' "Martha" is my favourite song ever. Sad, but beautiful

    2nd favourite would be "Time". Also by Waits. :)
