WHich song always brings a lump to your throat?

Some of you will probably remmber Ocean Colour Scene, 5 piece from Birmingham, they did a album called "B-sides, Seasides and Freerides", its pretty mellow an has some real chokers on it, no videos, so just lyric links.
On the album is a very beautiful version of "The Circle".
"I wanna stay alive with you" the sleeve note reads "I wrote this after seeing a tv show about kids in Thailand being sold for the night to fat western businessmen to pay for their parents heroin. Almost every record company in Britian rejected this song"
The album ends with a track called "Beautiful Losers"
the sleevenote just says "Mind your own business"

other than that, we'll go back a bit, Fleetwood Mac (the proper one), "Man Of The World"

Holy thread revival Batman!
Is 5 (+) years a record? can't be far off :D
 
Just because the lyrics are so true.

 
This does it for me. Eric Bogle's lyric's raise the hairs on my neck.

Luther VanDross...dance with my father again. heart of flaming stone not to get chocked with that one :crying:

nothing else really gets to me, plenty of sad stuff around though...

This Luther track hits me really hard. Even just thinking about it.
 
Forever Autumn by Moody Blues
The Living Years - Mike and the Mechanics (seems a popular one)
Time to say goodbye - Mother's funeral. I love the version by Kathryn Jenkins but have to switch it off if my father is anywhere near as he burst into tears!
Galloping home - big Black Beauty fan when I was a kid and only lost my big black galloping horse last year. Always gives me goose bumps.
