What song/video makes you cry?

[carolyne]

I cry every time I hear the Mississippi Children's Choir's version of 'His Eye is on the Sparrow'. That little boy just broke me down. I also cried when Aaron Hall released the video to 'I Miss You' because my sister was pregnant at the time and I scared me. Now, I cry tears of joy when I hear Jill Scott's 'The Way You Love Me'. It reminds me of how my husband makes me feel.

I just thought of another song that makes me cry. It's by Howard Hewitt. I believe it's titled 'Amen'. It's the song that he sings to God. That song is so touching.

One song that makes me bawl at the drop of a hat is Minnie Riperton's " Loving you". I hate to even hear it on the new Visa commercial. Stevie Wonder's " All I do is think about you" makes me sad also. Others include james Taylor " Fire and Rain", " Sunshine on My Shoulder" by John Denver ( If you saw the movie, you'll understand), and that gospel song, I don't know who sings it but it's a woman giving her testimony and when she showed how she overcame each obstacle, she'd sing " I had a praying Grandmother. And the commodores " Jesus is Love."

I just saw Aaliyah's new video. I think it was one of her best. I'm sure the record company went all out for this video. It's sad knowing that we are watching the last days/hours of her life.

Ever since she sang it on the American Idol Finale show, I always shed a tear behind "I believe". I love that damn song.

My mother-in-law to be wanted Jesus Is Love to be sung at my wedding. I think she was trying to give us a hint...the first words are "Father, help your children". LOL. She even went so far as to buy the sheet music.
