Songs that emotionally cut you

Jim Reeves - He'll Have To Go.......................can still hear this coming up through the floor on a Sunday morning. One of my Dads go to artists.

Hank Williams - My Son Calls Another Man Daddy........................some will know the sentiments of this song

 

[asredastheycome]

The first time I heard this it was a live version so that's what I'm posting here. Written for his brother Carl who had recently died of cancer.

Brain Wilson - Lay Down Burden(live in concert)

 

[asredastheycome]

Another song that had a big effect on me when I first heard it. It was the b-side of Soldier Blue which is great but this is the one for me. I do like a protest song.

Buffy Sainte-Marie - Moratorium

 

[asredastheycome]

Carly Simon - His Friends Are More Than Fond Of Robin........................................a song my late wife used to play for me even though I'm not Robin or Batman . Someone on the comments says says This song is beautiful beyond measure. Nailed it in one.

Caroline Trettine - Guilty

 

[asredastheycome]

Crazy Horse - I Don't Want To Talk About It..............................the original and BEST version of a wonderful song. If you dont own this album(the first Crazy Horse album and the only one you need) go out and buy it today. It's up there with the best of Neil Youngs albums.

Emotionall cutting for other reasons.

Phil Ochs - Colored Town

 

[SocraTees]

Ignore the first few minute then feast your ears on a truly uplifting song. Beautiful and means a lot to me personally.

 

[SocraTees]

This too. A painful and personal reminder of what you want to do more than anything but life won’t let you.

 

[Ziggy]

One for the jazzers, and everyone else, of course.
There is a vocal...just takes time to get there.

Ignore the first few minute then feast your ears on a truly uplifting song. Beautiful and means a lot to me personally.

Possibly my favourite song ever by Kate Bush. Probably vies for top spot with Under Ice.
