Song/singer that makes your knees weak hearing the song.

[Justice wanted]

Daryl Hall I think has one of the greatest voices alive.

Anytime -I mean ANYTIME- I hear him sing me and Mrs. Jones I completely melt.

One of the Greatest voices of all time that made my knees weak.


Freddy Mercury

Anyone want to go next?

[graywarrior]

1. I melt when I hear this

[Brickbat]

17. I love Bob Dylan. But I have to say this cover by Ministry is what brings it back for me...

Reminds me of ... those days.

[graywarrior]

19. Oouu I like that!

[Brickbat]

[barbtries]

3. it's gotta be...

Unforgettable

lost

[polly7]

13. Can't Cry Hard Enough is one of my favourite songs of all time.

I'm so sorry about your brother.

I found this song just after I lost my Dad and played it over and over for weeks.

[lost-in-nj]

16. yup

me to

sorry about your Dad
lost

[KatyaR]

40. "Can't Cry Hard Enough" makes me fall to pieces every time I hear it.

I always think of my friend who committed suicide and how confused I was (and still am) over what happened. In fact, the Williams Brothers' album that's from is full of songs like that for me, but "Can't Cry Hard Enough" is definitely the topper.

Another song that always puts me out is this performance of "A House is Not A Home" by Luther Vandross.

[abbeyco]

44. "A House..." is one of my favorites

I've loved me some Luther for such a long time and "A House is not a Home" is one of his best songs ever - thanks for adding the video!

[BrendaBrick]

[nolabear]

18. Joan Osbourne: St Theresa.

I love many songs but this is one that just slays me.

[AllenVanAllen]

Here's three of my favorites.

[bluesbassman]

22. Janis

[murielm99]

30. Janis, Janis, Janis.

There will never be anyone like her.

[Doc Holliday]

50. Ah, Janis....

She's still dead, right?

[cliffordu]

24. Desperado by Linda Rondstadt

[LearnedHand]

25. "Falling Slowly" Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova

[NCTraveler]

29. Jennifer Nettles

&ob=av2e

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

31. Joni Mitchell- For Free

the lyrics get me everytime I hear them..

[friendly_iconoclast]

68. I'll go with her "Help Me", and Steely Dan's "Aja"

The SD will always remind me of driving through the Florida Keys with that in the tape player...

[XemaSab]

32. Here:

[Mopar151]

33. Gary Jules - Mad World

Theme music for "Donnie Darko"
Original to Tears for Fears - I love this spare, elegant arrangement

[WiffenPoof]

51. Funny...

I was thinking of this very song...this very version. A lovely, simple, but powerful song.

-P

[idiotgardener]

65. excellent choice

[mia]

34. Eric Clapton - My Father's Eyes

&feature=fvwrel

[jcboon]

35. Roy Orbison

&feature=fvwrel

[laundry_queen]

37. I have a few...

Who can resist Chris Cornell's voice?

Love this live version.

I came of age listening to this album, can't leave Kurt out.

Is it weird to get weak in the knees at someone's screaming 'shut up'?

Finally, the best for last - this band has an unfortunate name (they were FIRST!), but Jeff Martin is definitely my favorite male vocalist EVER. Also, a great Canadian band:

[dana_b]

59. not me!

I love Mr. Cornell's voice.

[sarge43]

38. Stardust, Nat King Cole. Near perfect

[opiate69]

[MGKrebs]

46. Human Touch- Springsteen

"Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
Well it comes with a hard, hard price
You can't shut off the risk and the pain
Without losing the love that remains
We're all riders on this train."

[jobycom]

47. Barbara Streisand-Left in the Dark. John Berry-O Holy Night

This is a pretty bad recording, but the difference between his studio version and his live performances is great enough to suffer through it, especially at the end.

[Adsos Letter]

48. Roberta Flack "Killing Me Softly"

I love both her voice and the instrumental accompaniment. Takes me directly back to a very significant time in my youth every time I hear it.

I was farther from anywhere I'd ever been, and had crossed a divide from which there was no returning.

[lovemydog]

49. what a beautiful way to describe that lovely song

thanks for sharing it here

[wysimdnwyg]

52. A nearly perfect love song, as performed by an angel

[LynneSin]

53. Robert Plant

But then again he's been doing that to me for over 30 years now

*swoon*

[Tsiyu]

69. You too?

Couldn't stand LZ way back in high school, mainly because that's all the guys would listen to and it got really old. I was into Heart, Yvonne Elliman, Bonnie Raitt, Fleetwood Mac, the Allman Bros and Clapton; bluesy/folky/southernish rock was it for me.

Now as an old woman, I just love to hear Plant croon about his lemons



(Saw he and Allison Krause at Bonnaroo and it was pure awesomeness. He let out one of his old style vocal sirens and all the guys around us went CRAZY screaming. Lotsa fun.)



I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds his voice swoony in my dotage....

[PassingFair]

54. Can't listen to this one without crying. Eva Cassidy.

Hurts to think that she died so young.
I don't usually respond to "female" voices,
I like the deeper voices of males, but.....

I wish I had known of her while she was still alive.

[LibDemAlways]

66. Beat me to it. Beautiful voice. Terrible loss. n/t

[Beer Snob-50]

55. rocky mtn high by john denver

only because while on a tour of rocky mtn natiional park and we riding around in an atv, the guide played this song and it just wowwed both my wife and i......

[Bake]

56. I'm on a Guy Clark kick lately.

Just a great, great songwriter. This is one of my favorites.



Bake

[AsahinaKimi]

57. Tears by X~Japan.

I just cry with this..

[opiate69]

61. I'll see your "Tears" and raise you:

"Endless Rain" from the "Last Live" DVD. Heartbreaking, and inspiring at the same time

[AsahinaKimi]

62. Great song!

thanks!

[opiate69]

67. I love how the crowd just carries on that chorus for like, 10 minutes at the end...

Epic

[dana_b]

58. Eddie Vedder

[Doc Holliday]

60. Years ago....

....my wife and I were going through what folks call "a rough patch." We were separated for nearly five months. I missed her and my then eight-year-old daughter so much that I barely was able to get out of bed in the mornings.

And, of course, that son-of-a-bitch Michael Bolton had a single out ("How Am I Supposed To Live Without You?&quot that seemingly played at least once an hour all day long on the radio at work....which did absolutely nothing to improve my mood. *

We eventually resolved our differences and reconciled....but to this day I absolutely cannot stand Michael Bolton's music. I am given to understand that this is not uncommon...but for me it was personal. If I ever meet him, I'll punch him right in his fucking face.

Not exactly the sort of testimonial you were looking for, I'm sure.....

.
.
.
.
.
....but I did discover that listening to Van Halen can be very therapeutic.

[Maine-ah]

70. Tom Jones

can't find the official video...sorry, this video is in reverse, but not the song.
