Tear-jerking, moving Western songs (91–100)
Leaving me nowLevel 42
Included on the 1985 album “World Machine.” A five-member band from the UK formed in 1979.
Set to a slow-tempo rhythm and a wet, mellow melody line.
The vocals singing about a girl who’s leaving get me a little misty-eyed.
State Of The HeartRIck Springfield
Included on the 1985 album Tao.
Born in 1949, an Australian singer-songwriter.
Over a calm, mid-tempo rhythm and a lyrical, melancholic melody, the vocals portray a man’s feelings as he strives to nurture love despite missed connections, moving the listener to tears.

Stay (Faraway, So Close!)U2
Included on the 1993 album Zooropa.
It was also used in the film Faraway, So Close! released the same year.
A four-piece rock band from Ireland formed in 1976.
The intro, which begins quietly with a lonely-sounding guitar, is striking, and as the melody flows moodily at a slow tempo, Bono’s vocals pour out emotion so richly that tears naturally begin to fall.
A fine track.
