Only five pieces of recorded music have produced tears for me:
Beach Boys - the whole childhood suite in the middle of
SMiLE, but especially "Surf's Up".
Beatles - "The Long and Winding Road"
Gordon Lightfoot - "If You Could Read My Mind"
Billy Joel - "Everybody Has a Dream"
and Pachelbel's Canon.
"If You Could Read My Mind" is the only guaranteed tear jerker.
However, it's notable that I cried with sheer delight when I heard the first few notes of "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" in Billy's live show.
OK, this is weird, that was exactly a year ago today pretty much
to the minute.
