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

Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

"When I woke up the rain was pourin down. there were people standin all around.
Something warm flowing through my eyes. but somehow I found my baby that night.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said. hold me darling, just a little
While. I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that i
Knew I had missed."

Sorry - above was in response to Key Metric's question about the rock song with accidental girlfriend death.

More on topic - I remember crying in the dark to Wendy (William) Carlo's Brandenberg Concertos. Damned if I know why ... guess I found it beautiful at the time, although I suspect if I listned now, I'd find them far too mechanical...
