| Africa - Toto... not because it's a heart wrenching song or anything like that but I've been listening to the chorus on a loop whilst I hold for 'technical assistance" from my ISP.. it's been going on for almost 40 mins now and I'm toying with the idea of hanging up but the litle voice of reason (that is being drowned out by Toto) is telling me 'if you've held for this long why hang up now?' |

Ok one more from me!
Silent Screams - Halford. The song is so beautiful and watching the live performance from Rock in Rio brings me to tears...when I was packing up to move I found a note form my late friend who will be gone 3 years this November...the song was on right after I found the note and I was bawling...It still hurts...even my bf who never got along with her said it was so surreal putting someone in the ground when we were then 23. |

I WITH YOU ON WIND BENEATH MY WINGS AND SILENT LUCIDITY. EVERYONES REASONS ARE PERSONAL. THE BASEBALL ROLLINGOUT AT THE END OF SILENT LUCIDITY GETS ME. I PLAYED BASEBALL WITH FATHER EVERDAY FOR FROM THE DAY I WAS BORN UNTIL HE DIED 14 YEARS LATER. I ALSO PLAYED WIND BENEATH MY WINGS IN HIS MEMORY AT MY WEDDING.
WIND BENEATH MY WINGS WAS ALSO THE SONG THEY WERE PLAYING ON THE NEWS WHEN ROBERTO CLEMENTES PLANE CRASHED. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A BIG FAN OF HIS. |

"Wind Beneath My Wings" -- the rendering that Better Midler recorded several moons ago (featured in the "Beaches" movie). Initially, I felt the song was very sweet...and it was moving...however, when my sister Terry played this song on the last day of my mother's wake back in '90 (after making QUITE the eulogy to boot), it REALLY hit home....the hell my mother lived through (especially in her childhood...which wasn't a childhood at ALL) and the way it tolled on her emotionally...and yet, she saw to it that none of us (four daughters in her first marriage and me in her second) would EVER suffer the pains she did and she did her very best to shed light on us even when we felt our darkest. I still find it tough to listen to this song the whole way through, even though virtually every thought I have of my mother now makes me smile.
"Silent Lucidity" --Queensryche. This one never fails to make my eyes well up...even though the song is mostly perceived as a lullaby to a child awoken by a horrific nightmare, I also see the song as a message of love sent by those we've loved who've passed on...the idea being, even though they're no longer here physically, they still look upon us and are abundantly aware of what we're doing...how we're carrying on in their absence....they still know who we are to them and smile upon us even though we're missing them so terribly as they carry on a new life with no pain, no sadness, or any other ills we face here on Earth on a daily basis. I'm not the least bit ashamed to admit I wept openly upon seeing the video for the first time to this song...the scene near the end where the mother sits upon her son's bed and softly caresses his head...reminded me very much of something my mother would've done...and I saw the video a short time after her passing...so...you can imagine, I'm sure.
"Last Rose of Summer"-- Judas Priest. We all know the song...and while it's hardly a sad song...it's a song that lends more into the idea that 'good-byes' - though painful, are never permanent. Such a beautiful thought, and it unquestionably conjures emotion.
...there's a couple others...but these 3 come to mind the quickest. Oh...I should also add Steve Vai's "For The Love of God" and "Sisters." This man KNOWS composition....even without a single vocal or lyric, his guitar does ALL the work and to GREAT effect! |

In My Life by the Beatles. Its so beautiful-and the lyrics get me all fucked up.
Thank You-Led Zep. That song is dedicated to my beleoved Greyhound-especially the line "If the sun refused to shine, I will still be loving you." God im getting weepy typing it.
The Show Must Go On-Queen. I dedicated that to my dog and my best friend in how I felt after losing both of them within months of each other.
Failthfully-Journey.
Don't Stop Believing-Journey. It was my best friend and mines song since we were little (BEFORE the Sopranos made it too popular) and once she died it was still "our song".
Concerete Angel-Martina McBride (I think). We dont have country music on the radio by me but in travel to dog shows I heard it on the radio in the car just bawled.
The Long Goodbye-Brooks and Dunn.
Lost Love-Judas Priest.

One song always make my cry is CLOSE TO YOU by Priest.
We lost a boy (my best friends son) 7 years ago, and Ive cried every time Ive heard that song since.
The part where Ripper sings " As I stand here by the grave, and the wind calls out your name I know that time will never heal, the emptiness I feel" tears me apart, not forgetting Glenn's AWESOME solo. Perfection in its fullest.
The song LOST LOVE from Nostradamus is a very close 2nd. It is so sad and yet so beautiful ...

She gets in her car October Friday night
Home from work down 31 past Franklin High
She can see the stadium lights she can hear the band
A thousand crazy high school kids
screamin' in the stands
Quarterback and Homecoming Queen
Love to young to know what it means
She goes back in time oh in her
mind it's like a dream
A child should have a home she
knows her folks were right
She never heard the couple's name
just that they were nice
She wonders if he's taller than his father was
Does he drive a car by now has he been in love
She shakes back to reality she knows
Things turn out the way they should be
But she just can help but ask
herself does he know about me
He would be would sixteen
The son she never knew
It hurt so much to give him up
But what else could she do
He would be sixteen
She never even got to hold him
And nights like this hurts to miss
The son she's never seen
He would be sixteen
He would be sixteen |
