    Nope. Unless maybe it was in a film soundtrack that related to a film. But then again I haven't cried in 25 years

    When I try to play a tune on my old acoustic guitar, it has been said people are moved to tears.

    Q. What's the difference between an Accordion and an Onion?

    A. No one cries when you chop-up an Accordion.

    Now, I can't tolerate Neil Young apart from that fabulous song.

    Here's two more that move me ( a little ).

    That was the light hearted response I was looking for to my tongue in cheek remark before I posted my song. Neil young Philadelphia.

    Spirtualizeds Broken Heart is a sure fire tear jerker ,,I have to avoid it completely..another one is another chance by Roger Sanchez and the original that he sampled ;(

    I have to admit that I got teary eyed when I saw Jimmy Page perform 'Stairway to Heaven' on the double-neck at a show in Chicago '88.

    It was just Jimmy and his guitar. There weren't any other members of the band on the stage. He played the opening 'riff' and then looked at the audience and said 'sing along'. There wasn't anyone in the room that didn't know the words. I still remember the chills up my spine when he went into the solo.

    25 years ago and I can still hear it in my head.
