Other than the current state of our club, that’s a given.

Three things for me:

Chaplin’s speech in The Dictator.

When the Dad in Step Brothers yells ‘rock the fuck out of those drums Dale…sorry’ (dunno why).

Show must go on by Queen.

Nuvole Blanche.


Do you mean Nuvole Bianche, Quaggy? Because if so, that's quite simply of the most beautifully written piano pieces. I've listened to Einaudi's works for years and it's always 'White Clouds' that is the one that moves me.

I want it played at my life gathering {funeral}

Yep, that’s the one, just an amazing piece of music.

Wouldn't say it makes me weep as such...but this certainly brings a tear to the eye, especially after a few beers...

Never used to cry, not emotionless but just didn't have the physical reaction to it. Since becoming a parent though I'm basically a water feature.

But basically anything involving loss. My wife loves watching medical programmes and I try to avoid watching them with her as watching people watching their loved ones in mortal peril is absolutely not good for me.

On the musical front, I wouldn't say songs do this but a few performances do, particularly the sub-genre of tribute concerts. The Chester Bennington one where Linkin Park do Numb with no frontman and the crowd sing it back at them is an absolute dead cert:



Or the more recent Taylor Hawkins one with his son on drums:
