Pal of my Cradle Days ....

I can't listen to this song without my eyes watering. It really gets to me.

Is there a song that upsets you every time you hear it?

[NoMercy]

You'll Never Walk Alone - Jerry And The Pacemakers.

[Bobbisox]

OMG Mrs C....me too

[mrs.chappie]

There's a song by Jim Reeves called Old Tige. That upsets me too.

[Bobbisox]

I think of my mum with Ann Breen...oh bugger!!!!

[mrs.chappie]

Did you have a good holiday Joy?

[Bobbisox]

[Jan1957]

Dance With My Father Again by Luther Vandross.

[mrs.chappie]

Did you miss your buddies on AB?

[Bobbisox]

Mammy, I can remember my mum singing that. I'd forgotten about it until just now.

[looobylooo]

the soldier by harvey andrews...

crying in the chapel by elvis...

dont cry daddy by elvis...

coat of many colours by dolly parton...

the air that i breath by the hollies...

seasons in the sun by terry jacks...

[jno]

loooby listen to the Kingston Trio version of Seasons in the Sun - much more interesting and double-edged, he says farewell to wife and friend but also remembers they cheated on him. Makes Jacks version sound like mush, though I do like it.

[looobylooo]

ok jno, will have a listen.... ta

[jno]

...this is it

Loooby, you're worse than me! Coat of Many Colours also gets to me as our mum had seven of us and I remember her cutting up/mending/altering clothes for all us little 'uns. Sad times.

aw mrs c... x
yeah i fill up every time i hear that song, it reminds me of my mum too ... thankfully i still have my lovely mum.

and i cant help but fill up with crying in the chapel and dont cry daddy cus i just think of me dad..... and thankfully i still have my lovely dad too.

the others songs also make me cry every time i hear them too - they make me stop and think... and appreciate the very special close family that i have and dont ever want to lose..... it reminds me how much they mean to me and how much i love them.. but sadly dont tell them often enough ..... x
