I just think about my Dad and if Iād listened to him more my life could have been better.
This is well before my time (some things are :)). It may be old but the crescendos in this song about slavery can bring a lump to my throat. Paul Robeson had a great baritone voiceā¦
Joe Brown sings āIāll See You In My Dreamsā at the end of every concert (Iāve been to 3). Iāve heard it said the song is in remembrance of Vicki Brown, his first wife (died 1991). I donāt know if thatās true but if it is, it makes this song a sad one and maybe tear-worthyā¦

Lovely contributions from you all.
Those sad songs do evoke memories.
This made me cry the first couple of dozen times I saw it.
ā¦ just because I loved the music 50 odd years ago then didnāt listen to them again until recently ā¦ old friends, orchestra 'n all, drums magnifico.
Very moving Doody.
Please, I would love to hear Vicki Carr singing āIt Must Be Himā reminding me of the hours waiting on the phone for that special call.
And Perry Como singing āI THnk of Youā
Thank you
Oh, Lovely
Thank you so much Sweetie pie
John Denverā¦On The Wings Of A Dream, it was playing when my Dad died.
Please listen to the words.
One of the saddest, most emotional songs ever written, The change at about 2 mins in makes you choke up, an emotional roller coaster.
Itās from The Marriage of Figaro if you werenāt familiar with it.
Not into sad songs myself but this is good if you like that sort of thing.
