heard this night for the first time last night and it made me happy.

another is blue velvet by bobby vinton really makes me happy.

My favourite song of all time is Bobby Goldsboro's Summer (The First Time). I recall being a very embarrassed 12 year old when my mum told me what it was actually about! I smile about that to this day.

'Danny Boy' is guaranteed to cause me to choke up and I know that my dad wants it played at his funeral so I also know I'm going to end up as a blubbering wreck in the corner. The other one that makes me sad is the very obscure 'Slower Now' by the alternative band 'The Clavier'.

Happy? The utterly trashy 'Love Missile F1-11' by Sigue Sigue Sputnik. So many great memories of going mad on the dancefloor in clubs of the 80s. Can totally embarrass the kids leaping around the living room like a loon when that's on.

"I Believe In Miracles" by the Jackson Sisters always puts a big smile on my face.

Love the way you lie- makes me cry. Because my boyfriend cheated on me a lot like the lyrics of this song.

"Feed the birds" from Mary Poppins makes me cry as it turns out!

Ray Price, one of my favourite singers passed away recently. I've always liked his version of "Danny Boy."

"Cry" - Godley & Creme. That track utterly destroys me.

"Good Life" - Inner City always lightens my mood.

One song that makes me cry (especially when I am drunkenly (is that a word) noastalgic) is Back to the Old House by The Smiths

Two Little Boys, it's definitely the words and not the tune that has this effect of sadness.

The Carnival is Over by The Seekers is one that reduces me to a blubbering mess. Not only has it a sad tune, but the lyrics are sad too. The words 'I will love you until I die' imply that it really will be over when you die, as opposed to, for example, I will love you forever, which is much more hopeful.

I remember when The Seekers' final concert was on the telly back in 1968/69 ish. I was a lad of 8 or 9 years old and the family were sat around the TV watching the show. I knew that at some point they would be singing this song and I was edging my way towards the living room door with a view to making a quick exit. And when Athol Guy announced : "and now the carnival really is over" and they played those opening chords, I had to make my excuses and go to the bathroom with a lump in my throat that was so painful I could barely breathe.
