Last week, with a TWENTY FIVE euro voucher for Golden Discs on offer, we asked what song makes you blub like a big crying, blubbing baby.
You replied in your tearful tens.
But there could be only one winner.
Yes, only one.
Oh, pull yourself together for pity’s sake.
In reverse order then…

“While not often found crying, I have been literally moved to tears listening to More Than Everything by Bombay 1 because it is so an incredibly simplistic and sparse, a song that simultaneously fills me with melancholy and joy to a point that it feels like it slows the beat of my heart…and I forgot to give it to the DJ at my wedding…. fupp… :(“

“While not often found crying, I have literally been moved to tears, listening to Storm by Lifehouse, because of its intensity and relevance, when missing close family members in other countries. Don’t listen to it if you’re of a delicate disposition.”
Spud writes:
“Alicia Ross by Canadian singer Kathleen Edwards.Written about a local girl who went missing and was murdered. She often welled up signing it live and it’s a beautiful, yet tragic song. I never knew the story when I first heard it.”
Winner...

Try, Song to the Siren, by This Mortal Coil. Go on, really listen to it, i cant anymore because it inflicts actual physical pain. Think Martin Sheen in the opening sequences of Apocalypse Now. (1979) I don’t know why, it just does…
Bubbling under:
Brother Barnabas: “While never found crying, I have been almost moved to tears listening to an upbeat panpipes-version of Bridge Over Troubled Waters because the cafe beneath my office has been playing it repeatedly on loop since around half 10.”
Soedgy: ‘While not often found crying, I have been literally moved to tears listening to my marketing manager give me design advice because he wants to make it ‘pop’’
Thanks all.
Last week: Dancing With Tears In My Eyes
i think we all recognise who the real winner is here
Golden Discs.

Your voucher is in the post.
Ugh Pan Pipes, the Devils Fingers. I hear ya BB. If ever The Purge becomes reality, I’ll be gunning for Pan Pipe Players first.
Wow ! Thrilled to little bits with this, think we need something cheerfull to balance out the rainy-ness https://g.co/kgs/qGD4TQ
Half-Man Half-Biscuit version of Song to the Siren is more in keeping with the Buckley original…..
