The Most Beautiful Song I've Heard

I love the Harry Manx version, but this is the original Johnny Cash song:

I'm feeling sentimental because I'm leaving my girls for a week for the first time. This is a thread for posting your schmultzy sentimental favourites

This song always gets to me:

This one is the one that gets to me on an emotional level every time. My mother teached me to play it before she died and it was the first song I played for my wife.

Most of us know the show it's from, but I find it disturbingly beautiful.

I am a simple person. I used to sing this one to my kids when they were younger.

This one tears my heart out so badly that I can not listen to it very often.

^^ See, that song gives me the willies. I think they used it in a trailer for a Stephen King movie or some such back in the day.

That's a damn shame.

Way too many to name and also depends what mood I'm in. Lacrimosa by Mozart is one that comes to mind that I've always liked.

Also this piece by George Winston always brings back a lot of memories for me....sadly not very happy ones...but it is such a beautiful song.
