Bet you all cried when The Champ died.

Cried as a 6 year old when I first watched it, still chokes me now.

Music and books.

The pogues - the band played waltzing matilda one example of music

Life and Fate and Vasily Grossman one example of a book.

Much prefer The Dubliners version, but either way it's a fantastic song that provides a lot of emotion.

"And when I awoke in me hospital bed, and saw what it had done, I wished I was dead... I never knew there was worse things than dying."

For me, it's always...

The only reason it's the Pogues version for me is because that's the version I first heard and thus was how I was introduced to the song. I much prefer the Dubliners as a band and will check out the version you've suggested.

I always listen to it around remembrance day and see old fellas in full suits with their medals walking to places to pay their respects. "And the young people asked me, what are they marching for, and I asked myself the same question...and year after year, their numbers get fewer, someday no one will march there at all." It reminds you of the magnitude of the sacrifice and of how little it all achieved and I think that's deeply sad.

I'm only just getting into classical music but I like some of Elgar, I had no idea it was used in relation to Remembrance Sunday. Very moving.

It gets me every year - every time - along with David of the White Rock; lots of memories come to the fore, which otherwise are subdued.

Cried laughing at someone's ugly kid on Facebook a couple of years ago, the more I looked at it's little potato shaped head the more I laughed. It was one of them belly laughs with streams of tears coming down my face and I couldn't stop it at all, lasted about 5 min.

Luckily, he's grown into his head now and looks a lot better in a recent photo.

Surely all Evertonians have cried at some point this season.

A fantastic song which was written by Eric Bogle who wrote so many 'tear jerkers' including 'The green fields of France' (young Willie McBride)

This is the one that does it for me though

Sorry but unless it's a death of someone close to you then men look like absolute bellends when they cry and you all know it. No exceptions either.
