  • Re: What songs make you happy??.... Or make you Cry?

    Another song that makes me sad (though it's not played half as much these day's) is Annie's Song by the late John Denver. Though Annie's Song has personal family reasons why I am so sad and often makes me want to cry at times when I hear it, it is also so mellow and beautiful I think too - which for some reason I always think of a beautiful mountainside with dew lingering whenever I hear it. A brilliant song sung so well by John Denver , no doubts!

      Two or three more I can recall are Jim Diamond and "I Should Of Known Better" ... what a classic tearjerker this is no doubts!! Singers for years sure have never had one-hit wonders like Jim did with this song.

      Honourable mentions must go to Kylie and Jason with Especially For You as well I feel, as well as Kylie on her own with "Tears On My Pillow" that Kylie brought back to life as an old 1960s song which was very very slow in comparison (when I think Brenda Lee had the most notable other version of it). A beautiful and sad song combined all in one I think.

                  Teddy Bear by Red So Vine makes me cry about a cripple boy using his Dad's CB to chat to his trucker friends "There's only Mum & me now as Dad died driving home in the blinding snow"

                  https://uk.search.yahoo.com/search;_...yfp-t-903&fp=1


                  I was on the outskirts of a little southern town
                  Tryin' to reach my destination before the sun went down
                  The old CB was blarin' away on channel 1-9
                  When there came a little boy's voice on the radio line

                  And he said, "Breaker 1-9, is anyone there?
                  Come on back, truckers and talk to Teddy Bear"
                  Well, I keyed the mike and said, "You got it, Teddy Bear"
                  And a little boy's voice came back on the air

                  Appreciate the Breaker who we got on that end
                  I told him my handle and then he began
                  Though I'm not supposed to bother you fellows out there
                  Mom says, you're busy and for me to stay off the air

                  But you see I get lonely and it helps to talk
                  'Cause that's about all I can do, I'm crippled and I can't walk
                  I came back and told him to fire up that mike
                  And I'd talk to him as long as he'd liked

                  "This was my dad's radio", the little boy said
                  But I guess it's mine and mom's now, 'cause my daddy's dead
                  Dad had a wreck about a month ago
                  He was tryin' to get home in a blindin' snow

                  Mom has to work now to make ends meet
                  And I'm not much help with my two crippled feet
                  She says not to worry that we'll make it alright
                  But I hear her cryin' sometimes late at night

                  You know there's one thing, I want more than anything else to see
                  Oh I know you guys are too busy to bother with me
                  But you see my dad used to take me for rides when he was home
                  But I guess that's all over now since my daddy's gone

                  Not one breaker came on the old CB
                  As that little crippled boy talked with me
                  I tried hard to swallow a lump just wouldn't stay down
                  As I thought about my boy back in Greenville Town

                  Dad was gonna take mom and me with him later on this year
                  Why I remember him sayin' someday
                  This old truck will be yours Teddy Bear
                  But I know now, I'll never get a ride on 18-wheeler again
                  But this old base'll keep me in touch with all my trucker friends

                  Teddy Bear's gonna back on out now and leave you alone
                  'Cause it's about time for mom to come home
                  But you give me shout when you're passin' through
                  And I'll surely be happy to come back to you

                  Well, I came back and I said, "Before you go 10-10
                  What's your home 20 little CB friend?"
                  Well, he gave me his address and I didn't once hesitate
                  'Cause this hot load of freight would just have to wait

                  I turened that truck around on a dime
                  And headed straight for Jackson Street 229
                  And as I rounded the corner, oh, I got one the heck of a shock
                  18-wheeler were lined up for three city blocks

                  I guess every driver for miles around had caught Teddy Bear's call
                  And that little crippled boy was havin' a ball
                  For as fast as one driver would carry him in
                  Another would carry him to his truck and take off again

                  Well, you better believe I took my turn rifin' Teddy Bear
                  And then carried him back in and put him down in his chair
                  And buddy if I never live to see happiness again
                  I want you to know, I saw it that day in the face of that little man

                  We took up a collection for him before his mama got home
                  And each driver said goodbye and then they were all gone
                  He shook my hand with a mile long grin
                  And said, "So long trucker I'll catch you again"

                  Well, I hit that Interstate with tears in my eyes
                  I turned on the radio and I got another surprise
                  Breaker 1-9, came the voice on the air
                  Just one word of thanks from mama Teddy Bear

                  We wish each and everyone a special prayer for you
                  'Cause you just made my little boy's dream come true
                  I'll sign off now before I start to cry
                  May God ride with you 10-4 and goodbye

                  Do you really believe the other side without provocation would launch so many ICBM's, subs and ships knowing that we would have no option to launch as well? It would break our MAD Treaty (Mutually Assured Destruction) not to mention the end of the world as we know it.

                    Emily - Beth Nielsen Chapman is such a sad tune. it's about the singer visiting her friend who's dying in hospital.
                    The Last Song - Elton John is another good weepie as well.

                      Most of Red Sovine's songs make me cry such as this one.

                          Of all the versions of "Amazing Grace," this one by Andre Rieu really gets me choked up every time I hear it.

                            My choice in this regard (the topic) would always be "My Heart will Go On" by Celine. Gets me nostalgic every time!
