Sure, that was an Elton John (Bernie Taupin) lyric. But Elton's best mate, Mr. Michael knew how to craft a wicked tearjerker, too. In a moment of self-indulgent sadness today I made a list of the gushy songs that make me cry. Then played them while looking at photos of my friends and family. Try it. It's pretty heartbreaking. What did I play? Here's 10 tracks that copped a hiding on my iTunes this afternoon:
Bad - U2
Nothing Lasts Forever - Echo and the Bunnymen
In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
Father Figure - George Michael
Manhattan Skyline - A-ha
Save A Prayer - Duran Duran
Empty Garden (Hey, Hey Johnny) - Elton John
Mad World - Tears for Fears
Don't Go Away - Oasis
Better Man - Robbie Williams
Didn't take long to pull myself together, though.
'Cos I had to head to the Fertility Centre to have some of my sperm frozen (just in case).
Speaking of pulling myself . . .
Nice.
