Cry me a river


I know this is a vry touchy subject but was just wondering how many of the Audiogoners have been overwhelmed by a particular piece of music and have shed a tear or two?

If you could give the information about the music that would also be great which actually would go down as music which could touch your soul in a way no other has. We may just compline a list of "Most touchy music that you have heard"

For me it has been the following:

Recent:
Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven

Once upon a time:
If you leave me now - Chicago
I'm not in love - 10cc

When I am in the right mood, down and out etc:
Like a Friend -- performed by Pulp from Great Expectations: The Album. Played really loud. Waaaaaaa!!!!
When I first heard Led Zeppelin's "All My Love," I thought it was just another rock love ballad written for some girl. When I found out that Jimmy Page had written this song after the unexpected death of his 6 year old son, I understood the emotions portrayed by this tune much better. Now I cry when I hear it.

There is a song about a guy who enters a car race to get enough money to ask his girlfriend to marry him. He proposes to her while he is dying after an accident. Makes me cry just thinking about it, but I can't remember the title or the artist.
Song from my last post was "Tell Laura I Love Her"

There is a rock song released a few years ago (probably a cover) about a guy who accidently kills his girl in an auto collision. Does anyone know the name of this song? Makes me cry every time.
