Another Tearjerker
To continue a recent thread, while I listened to a CD from our wedding party marked "Slow," for relatively slower, softer songs than the others Val recorded, yesterday, I heard another song that sometimes makes me cry, but in a good way, "Lost Together" by Blue Rodeo, from the CD of the same name.
For those of you unfortunately not too familiar with Blue Rodeo's work (Val and I are just a wee bit; we've each caught Blue Rodeo live 10-15 times, including at the Stardust Picnic in Toronto, and have basically all but one or two of their CDs), the song is about two people who are a bit aimless and not sure what they have to live for who find these things in each other.
Again, your suggestions for songs that produce tears are welcome.

Kevin, I agree about "Lost Together" and about Blue Rodeo. We must have been to all the same concerts! I've been a fan for 20 years and have see them at least 25 times! The last time was at Gateway Park this summer.
One of my favorite tearjerkers is a song written by Randy Newman, but sung by Judy Collins in the mid '60's, "I Think It's Going to Rain Today". She sings it with a cry in her voice that is truly touching.
