What songs make you cry?

Fess up, all you macho dudes & dudettes. Certain songs and music can turn on your waterworks. Here's some that seldom fail to make me mist-up...

-The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Peter, Paul & Mary)
-Sounds of Silence (S&G, non-rock version)
-Born to the Breed (Judy Collins)
-Reason to Believe (Tim Hardin)
-Sparrow (Simon & Garfunkle again)
Not a song, but what the heck: the "Yes, Virginia" editorial about Santa Claus

Estmad; have you ever heard "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" by Roberta Flack-- beautiful, sad, but also sensuous (sensual?). "Walkin' the Backstreets" by Koko Taylor. Also, Cowboy Junkies "Powder Finger".

Then there are a bunch of country/western songs that I refuse to listen to because of the "tear jerk factor"-- certain George Jones, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash songs etc. Cheers. Craig
