[Iggystar]

When an artist says, “That’s not my song anymore.”, is there a greater compliment?

Eric Claptons son conor was 4 years old when he fell over 50 floors out an open window in NYC. They said he was 9 in the video. Either way its incredibly tragic and i couldnt ever imagine that happening.

[jackthrone]

Nobody has ever given me goosebumps the way Whitney Houston has when I first watched her live in 1993. She was at the top of her talent and I’ll never forget it.

[rachelhahs]

It’s All Coming Back to Me Now by Celine Dion. When she hits that last “Baby Baby” it gives me goosebumps every time!

[ScooterSkillsYolo]

Could’ve easily had 100 songs on this list

[Vampiricspektor]

Tears in heaven got me through my grandpas funeral....:( seeing this made me cry again :(

[dwanpol-lovesdonuts]

How is Un-Break My Heart by Toni Braxton not on this list? It is one of the most gut wrenching songs ever written.

[jrebecca]

Correction: Eric Clapton's son, Conor, was only four years old when he died, not nine.

[richardtherichard]

I remember my first time hearing “house of the rising sun” I’ve always been classic rock inclined thanks to my hippy dad. But between the LEGENDARY guitar riff and the story being told? Undoubtedly a classic

And omg hurt by Johnny cash, first time I heard it I legitimately cried. I had to sit down. You just FEEL the words in his version. Great on Trent for letting him cover it and for admitting that Johnny owned the song. Totally owned it

[theupliftchannel]

Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday should’ve made the list for sure. Maybe even number 1

[wiley]

Cats in the cradle …..man after my dad passed away I can’t make it through that song

[TrevorJust]

Notable Absences: One by Metallica. Cat’s in the Cradle by Harry Chapin. Candle in the Wind/England’s Rose by Elton John

[brooklyntiger]

The songs that do it for me are: FIELDS OF GOLD by Sting, WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD by Louie Armstrong & EVERYBODY HURTS by R.E.M.

[mikeb]

How did Pink Floyd’s -“Wish You Were Here” not make the list??? That song gives you goosebumps

[lafuego]

"My Immortal" by Evancescence. Amy Lee's voice and that piano... so haunting! Gives me goosebumps each time.

[BLaacKjcKK]

I’m surprised Mad World isn’t on this list. That song is so haunting.

[waittillfamewtf]

💿 Listen To Your Heart - Roxette (1988)
"And there are voices that want to be heard
So much to mention but you can't find the words" 🎤

[shivanshgilhotra]

I started a joke - bee gees
Imagine- john Lennon
One- metallica
Dream on- Aerosmith
Time-pink floyd
November rain- gnr
Another day - dream theater

[AmandaHugandKiss]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for acknowledging Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah ". This song tears right through you...and has deep personal meaning.

[ericbreese]

I’m surprised “Broken” by Seether (w Amy Lee) and “What Hurts the Most” from Rascal Flats didn’t make the list
