I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues by Sir Elton

TBF, sadly, I can't remember what any of the individual members of Poco looked like,when I saw them in 1973! However, I do remember loving the concert-thought Poco and also Jim Croce were awesome! I remember going with the man who had just become my hubby! He enjoyed the concert a lot too.

Here's one that Mrs. Frey posted but there was no video for it. It gets me every time.

I must have a heart made of stone. No song alone (that I can think of) makes me cry. It takes other things being thrown into the mix. For example, I don't cry when I hear Sarah McLaughlin's Angel, but I cry when it's played during the movie City of Angels with Meg Ryan and Nicholas Cage.

Days - either the Kinks' original or Kirsty MacColl's beautiful cover. It reminds me of my late father.

OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EL-you don't even want to get me started about this song (tho It's never made me cry), this group or most especially the lead singer!!! This was the Cars biggest hit and for good reason. Along with Tim and Pagey, this is the only other man, other than my husband, I have truly lusted over! I know you've all heard me go on about him before. This man's voice just sends me into euphoria!! Truly was a very talented man who died way way way to young. Love & miss you Benjamin Orr!!!! RIP!

Thanks for posting that--I really haven't watched it for quite awhile and it was really good seeing it again.

BTW--just a couple little facts about this video--The woman in it is Paulina Porizkova. This was the first time she had ever met Ric Ocasek of The Cars. They have been married since 1989. Pretty cool! The video was directed by Timothy Hutton, the actor.

The Wings that Fly Us Home-John Denver
Not one of his best known songs, but certainly one of his most beautiful and touching ones.
