Bec He was born the day we played Spain, the whole ward emptied of men in the afternoon, hubby bought me a radio in so I could hear it. His sister visited me and couldn't believe I was listening to it and not looking after Nath, my reply was well hes asleep.

although not particularly interested in football, it's the best singalong footy anthem. It was amusing when it trounced the FA's official anthem for the 98 World Cup - a bizarre and completely forgettable collaboration between the Spice Girls and umm, Ocean Colour Scene. :-S

'You'll never walk alone' - do you know who weird it is to be stuck in an enclosed space with 50,000 celtic supporters singing that? Gets me all shivery 'Flower of Scotland' - think it awakens the Scottishness in me, especailly before, during and after a scotland match (and if we win its oh so much better) 'Evening Hymm' - My mum really doesnt like this song, you can actually see her shudder when they play it. Mhairi

i would say jerusalem would be min.brings a tear to my eyexxxxxxxxxx))):

Only one gets me everytime - it reminds me of my aunt who I loved to bits.. The song is 'Wind beneath my wings' and I think its Bette Midler performing it? Anyways - it stands the hairs on my neck and brings a tear to my eye - Everytime.. Dav x R.I.P Auntie Joyce x

Sorry - late again! My list includes - Toujours L'Amour by Lesley Garrett Lensky's Aria (from Eugene Onegin) by Dmitri Hvorostovsky What Becomes of the Brokenhearted by Jimmy Ruffin Kalinka (Russian folk song) Part Time Kind of Love - Gladys Knight & the Pips Isn't it a Pity - George Harrison The Nun's Chorus (from Casanova) by Kiri Te Kanawa Somewhere over the Rainbow - Judy Garland

Hi Bec! Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. Natalia x

Bring him home from les Miserables (in fact all the songs from les Mis) You'll never walk alone if I loved you, also from Carousel The wind beneath my wings If by Bread Ave Maria especially as sung in the student prince (that dates me) the Old rugged Cross played by Mony Sunshine Most hymns sung by a welsh male voice choir. Ann Glos

yes 3 Lions does it for me too! also Imagine by John Lennon - missed opportunity there too - also remember it being played just after 9/11 also from Les Mis - The Dream I Dreamed sung by Fantine - makes me cry - and not many things do that Maz. XX

Follow You Follow me....Genesis Its Getting Better....Mamma Cass Endless Love....Lionel and Diana

I really like the music in 'Spirited Away'. Lucia :-)

Something inside so strong by Labi Siffre and Lean on me by Bill Withers Anna :-)

Susan Harding - I love that 'I started a joke', only ever heard my mate sing it though, not the Bee Gees. And their 'First of May' - same story. I bought an old tape just for that and it was an instrumental version. CB - We had to sing that Kalinka at school, I can still do a bit of it! As for me - well, not goosebumps, actual tears every time I hear it, have to run out of shops if it comes on! That is 'Wires' by Athlete... just cannot hear it dry-eyed. xxx Jen

Cat Stevens - I love my dog as much as I love you. It reminds me of when my old dog disappeared and I never saw him again. REM - Everybody Hurts. Beautiful song, but reminds me of a sad time in my life - sad goosebumps. Shania Twain - Still the one. Was first dance at my wedding, so good goosebumps. Most Enya songs - they're hauntingly beautiful. Kaye x

There are loads of songs that make me sad (Wires being one of them), some that make me smile and raise my spirits, but as for goosebumps... yes, there are quite a few but my minds strangely blank. I have to agree totally with Andy about the Jeff Buckley Grace album, although I prefer the 'live at Sin-é' album, as per my quiz last week ! His live version of Hallelujah gets me every time. Paul (ps, CB, I've seen Jimmy Ruffin (he did a PA at a nightclub here some years ago) - bet you have too :)

The 'Lachrymosa' - Preisner's 'Requiem for my Friend' 'Ride of the Valkyries' - Wagner Bryn Terfel singing 'Callum Lam' (not sure how it's spelt!) 'Jerusalem' 'Hard Rain' - Bob Dylan

Imagine - John Lennon My dad Died the same day as Johns murder.

Being on parade in the Army and hearing 'The Last Post' being played by the bugler goosebumps and sad tears spring to mind . But then the band played My Boy Willie more goosebumps but pride and happy tears :-)))))))))))))

oh yes, forgot to say Abide with Me - at the FA cup Final - we had this at my dad's funeral as he was footie mad. Gets me every year. Maz. XX

Saints Alive - know exactly what you mean. I went to to Ypres in Belgium years ago and stood near the Menin Gate where everyone stops and a Bugler (spelling?) plays The Last Post - one of the most moving moments of my life, especially as we were there learning about the 1st World War. Kaye x
