As ABBA's biggest fan (and Agnetha & Frida's), this song of Agnetha always makes me cry as it reminds me of my late son:

The Winner Takes It All also makes me cry.

Sadly I can no longer play any the songs my son played and loved as I would simply break down and cry. :'(

There are a few that get me thinking... music is very powerful... I use it a lot, to cheer me up, to put some perspective into my life and issues and when I need help to lift some weights! raaaarrr!!! lol

but the one that really helps me, and makes me stop and think is this one (Johnny Cash - Hurt):

Yes, it wasn't his song, but I think this is the best version, and I think it suits him and I can relate to the message and words contained in it.
