Harry Chapin's "Tangled Up Puppet" is guaranteed to make me cry; "Perhaps Love" by John Denver does it often as well. "Time to Say Goodbye" and "The Prayer" by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli make me teary because they are sung so beautifully. Other songs can choke me up depending on my mood- Bruce's "My City of Ruins" and "You're Missing" have been known to have that effect; many of Harry's songs fall in that category as well.
Meat/Jim songs that get to me are "Left in the Dark", "Read 'Em and Weep", and sometimes "Cry Over Me".
Sometimes, it's a song that just hits me a certain way at a certain time, and that's unpredictable.
