Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 ... the Christmas carol "Silent Night", sung by anyone at all, and also "Lullaby Of Broadway" from the movie "Gold Diggers Of 1933" (or maybe '32 - anyway, it's sung by Winifred Shaw and I always well up when the tap dancing bit comes in halfway through. These two songs easily reduce me to a blubbering heap, and I have had to flee crowded rooms before now at Christmastime when "S. Night" is sung on any TV programme, just to keep my emotions in check... I'm not making this up - I've been this way for years about both things. Why they turn on my waterworks in this way and - much as I adore it - "The Dark End Of the Street" doesn't is something that shall, I guess, forever remain a secret between me and my tear ducts... ...I guess I'm just a sentimental old Hector, really.

BrianB Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Stevie Wonder's version of I Hear a Symphony. I get goosebumps every time I play it. The first time I played it I thought "here we go with an inferior version of The Supremes and the Isleys".... Bloody hell!! I actually had to wipe tears from my eyes as I listened to it. Funny thing is my wife, who when I asked her to listen to it with the head phones, said exactly what I'd been thinking, and she loved it as much as I did! My niece, who wouldn't know a soul record from a dirty nappy, actually used this for the bride and grooms first dance after hearing it just once at our house. On the northern side it has to be Love Love Love by Bobby Hebb. Sheer perfection. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Rich Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I did actually blubber whilst singing along to George Jacksons 'I don't have the time to love you' in a bar during one of my Falkland stints - lyrics were too poignant when your along way from home.
