What’s a song that makes you cry (not just from sadness, but from feeling too much)?

Winter is definitely right there.

And this one always inspires me, too. Not much of a cryer, but I get feels.

Being raised to be a manliest of manly men, I was always taught to repress my emotions, placing them in the happy box until they fester, turning into a heart attack or a stroke. Unless someone has died or is dying, I don't cry. (Someone might include a dog.) But, if I were to cry, there are some songs that hit me emotionally.

This song is strongly associated with my childhood (thought it was released years before I was born), and now that I'm aging it hits even harder.

I will not torture myself by pulling clips of these:

• "Travelin' Soldier" - The Dixie Chicks
• "Tears in Heaven" - Eric Clapton (maudlin, but the real story was fresh in my mind when I first heard it and I had to pull the car over so I didn't get into a wreck)
• And of course, "Cat's in the Cradle" - Harry Chapin, which should be subject to the Geneva Conventions, especially as my oldest kid is moving into adulthood now
