My choice is this from Johnny Cash. Not sure if its because I was going through a difficult break up at the time, that it was a legend reaching the end of his life or a combination of both but it brings tears to my eyes. Any songs like that for anybody else?

Thats a really touching song, would bring a tear to your eye.
The song that always brings a tear to my eye is wind beneath my wings.

oh thats a tough one so many great songs that have touched me personally.But Black by Pearl Jam is by far the most personal for reasons I'd rather not get into on a public forum, i still find it very difficult to listen to. I've added the unplugged mtv version as it is amazing.

I know some day you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star,
In somebody elses sky,
But why why why, can't it be mine?

Choices....by george jones. And for the very same reason...difficult breakup. Made me realise we all do have choices nd i'd made a bad one! That was nine years ago nd i still get weepy when i hear it!

Mary Black Singing Sonny
Simon & Garfunkle: Bookends & Old Friends

These two are ,for me at least,classic "get out of the room quick, while your dignity is still intact" songs.

The Bookends theme cuts right to the core,
as regards "Sonny" a life story I guess dunno
