The bit where the oboe comes in on Some Distant Memory by Electronic, just after three minutes

My eyes are getting dewey just at the thought of it

Oh and that bit in Cry to Me by Solomon Burke when you you hear his voice bouncing off the studio walls. Good grief. So good.

The final line in Trust by The Cure get’s me every time. There is so much heartache, anguish and desperation in the line:

“I love you more than I can say
Why won’t you just believe?”

Cant get enough of it. Sort of sad the song likely gets written off a bit because of Dirty Dancing but fucking hell, so glad it wasnt produced in a way that the obviousness of the room was removed from it. Could listen to it forever.

The lyrics to this always get me a bit emosh

You say you don’t know what love means anymore
Since I found you
I’m tearing down the walls, the walls, THE WALLS THE WALLS THE WALLS THE WALLS

Puff the Magic Dragon

A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant’s rings make way for other toys
One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff, that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
So Puff, that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave

Brutal :sob:

I listen (and cry) to the Will Oldham version of this a worrying amount. Have you heard his version? He does this “oh” that’s heartbreaking

World’s saddest song. Used to listem to Martha if i wanted to get my cry out but its nothing on this

Two Little Boys used to come close but the association with Rolf Harris has killed it

Not listened to it in years, but the last line of Easyworld ‘Kill The Last Romantic’ always used to make a boozy me turn into a quivering wreck. Wonder if it holds up.

Edit: ‘Tonight’. KTLR is the album title (and last line).

Edit 2: Oops, no isn’t that song at all. I’m having a 'mare here

Edit 3: Maybe it IS called that hahaha fucking hell. One wine at lunch.

Learned to sing that with my class in primary school so even just thinking about the lyrics I start welling up.

It’s not a fancy line but in the devotional section at 2:40 when the trio Bulgarika swell up and our Kate pushes her voice til it squeaks, “IIIIII’ll do it for you”, full on committed. I feel those squeaks.
