Your most moving song?

I'll add to the existing:
Sense of touch - Mark Isham
Maybe tomorrow - Stereophonics
^ 2 great OST from Crash
Colourblind - Counting Crows (Cruel Intentions OST) That one can give me goosebumps.

Mainly films' OST for me.
 
Pretty much all the songs I would name have already been mentioned....

Johnny Cash - Hurt
Queen - Who wants to Live Forever and Show must go on
Aerosmith - Dont wanna miss a thing
The Topgun theme

Some of these are just moving anyway, others have more personal feelings.
 
In early 1988 I was going through mental torture with an eating disorder and I knew my body was finally reacting and slowly dying after 3 years.
I was working on an assembly line when the song Mary's Prayer by Danny Wilson came on the radio and it featured the lyrics :

So if I say save me save me
Be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's
Leave a light on in heaven for me

The words hit a nerve and I broke down crying.
I was taken to the surgery where the Sister grilled me, I confessed and I ended up being thrown into a mental asylum for my own safety.
I still shed a tiny tear when I hear that song because it helped to save me.

DJ Sammy - Heaven (Candlelight Mix)

My son was born to this song (not our choosing, just happened to be on).
 
Thompson Twins - Doctor Doctor

I was 6yrs old and remember hearing this in the car after my 1st cat died :(

Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting For you
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zQF9kpwupeU

I got the remixed version "Lorindo", sent from a friend in Holland but couldnt find a decent vid of it on youtube, plus this is the original one, which is awesome aswell

Helped me through a really rough summer where 2 close relatives passed away within 2 weeks of each other.

U2 - Stuck In A Moment - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cww89NK1Yao

Always helped me when my relationship was spiralling down, gave me a wee boost when i needed it and helped me a lot.

Moby - Last Night - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=KwMykdB_BGg

Such a beautiful song, with the ending of my relationship i have listened to this song a couple dozen times and it has helped, its a sad song, but it helps in some bizarre way. Guess its helped me move on a lot faster than i ever thought possible and i hope anyone who listenes to it enjoy its. Its my favourite song so far of 2008.
 
what is the most moving song for you? there must be one out there for everyone, that just gets the emotions flowing? don't deny there isn't one out there :p

i have two.

Akon - don't matter

and the obvious

Aerosmith - dont wanna miss a thing

so how bout you guys and gals??

They move you, try listening to some proper music
 
It's not about whether you qualify the music as music, the person is sharing what music they believe is moving for them, everyone's different, sorry to state the obvious

Sorry, I was being an arse. For me, Wish you were here, Pink Floyd. Superb song, kind of sums up the way I feel at the moment. Really miss my family and girlfriend. :(
 
Not the best version of this by a long shot, but a decent enough viewing.

The Dies Irae & Tuba Mirum from Verdi's requiem.

Specifically the Tuba Mirum (I couldn't find a video of just this). The long, slow, agonising build up by the trumpets...epic in every way. I'm performing this in May which is why I thought I'd share it.
 
Metallica One music video, it has to be the video though, because of the guy that speaks with the mask thing on.

Video can be found on Metallicas website.
