Silly, soft old sod

Well, I couldn't help but hear the choked-back tears after Jackie Oates' wonderful performance on the last podcast, so I nipped into my local record shop (!) and picked up Saturnine.
Silly, soft old sod that I am, I teared up after THE TREES THEY ARE SO HIGH (again)...simply wonderful to get lost in the purest melody.
So, what ELSE makes a grown man weep like a hiking blister?

I've got a touch of the ol' moist-eye already...
Tonight at my placement school
The Christmas concert, watching the Junior Choir sing 'Someone Like You'. Younger kids' voices, and their artless delivery, led to outbreaks of throat clearing, sniffing, and somethings in the eye.
Not to mention the startling talent amongst the older kids - the brass band, jazz band and a couple of solo singers in particular. I'm proud to work there, however briefly.
This has always worked on the lachrymal glands chez moi...
