    I don't know which song you're talking about, but since DD was born, 'You're Gonna Miss This' by Trace Atkins and 'I Saw God Today' by George Strait make me tear up every time I hear them.  I NEVER used to be like that!

    Etta James - "At Last."  It's my wedding song and it kind of makes me think of when DS was born too.  I get choked up every time I hear it!

    "Mary" does it to me too.  When my grandmother was dying we sat around her bed singing and that was one of the songs.  :(  Patty's "Making Pies" also always makes me tear up for some reason.

    100 Years by Five for Fighting is my all-time favorite popular song.  Another tear-jerker for me is Music Box Dancer by Frank Mills, which was my dad's favorite song.  Both were played at his memorial service.

    Damnit, Glad, you have me crying too now.

    My strange one is Innagaddavida; my dad couldn't sing

    for crap, so that was his lullabye for us when my mom

    had nights off.  We wanted to have it played at his

    funeral, but the priest nixed that one.

    My others are Otis Redding's These Arms, because DH

    and I have been long distance for so much of our

    relationship, and then Amazing Grace and It Is  Well

    With My Soul.

    Amazing Grace & It Is Well are both tear-jerkers for me, too.  One of my dad's BFFs was a tenor in the Chicago Opera.  He sang Amazing Grace at the service.  Oh...the tears...

    I sang Amazing Grace at a service for a good friend's husband.  I couldn't look at anyone.
