Highway of Heros.
For those of you who don't know about this The Highway of Heros is a section of Highway 401 between CFB Trenton and the Don Valley Parkway in southern Ontario. When the body of a fallen Canadian soldier is repatriated they travel along this section of highway and the overpasses and road side are lined with people showing there respect and gratitude to the soldier and their family.

Bill,cancer sucks hard. I lost my step-son three years ago to testicular cancer,and both my sisters successfully fought cancer this last year. One breast cancer and the other uterine. We're praying for her and ALL the cancer fighters out there. Tell her to keep fighting!

Thx all....This is her second bout with it. The first was breast cancer 2 years ago. This cancer is unrelated. It's called ampulary cancer. Real rare, 2000 cases in U.S.. Without getting complicated, it's where the bile duct and pancreatic duct join together. We had to travel to Boston for a second opinion on treatment after her extensive surgery. She started 9 months of and radiation last month.

Hi everyone,
This was sung by a good friend at my fiance's funeral last year. I hadn't listened to it since and it was sung at onother funeral I went to last week...I bawled like a baby. It is a beautiful song. She had a CD that the band had autographed when she saw them in concert.

There are NO WORDS that can describe this performance. The song was origanly sung by Patty Griffin and Kelly sung this on Amrrican Idol gives back. Kelly and one of the GOD's of guitars (one of the gifted few that can make a guitar cry), Jeff Beck plays lead. Yeah the vid is old, and not all that great in quality but OMG!!! this is one of the best performances IMO ever. As I said before I'm at a loss for words on this one. Check out the comments at the end. Kelly is so awsome, as is Jeff. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. Peace out, B

and if there are any nay sayers or Kelly haters out there check out the expressions of the Queen of Country Music as she sits there in AWE of Miss Kelly. They say a picture is worth a 1000 words, wow what a performance. Yes I love Kelly because she is pretty, bit man can she sing!!! And she might have made Reba cry a little tear. Watching this again, Kelly starts the song and watch as Reba sits there shaking her head and what I get from watchig is "how the HELL Am I ever going to top this" LOL! Kelly is great IMO. Thanks for watching and listening. B

Wow - glad this thread got dragged up - had not seen and lots of great (and tear inducing) songs! A couple I'll add that always get to me some already mentioned:
Coat of Many Colors - Dolly
To Love Somebody - BeeGees
Crying - Roy
The River - Bruce - he dedicated this song to his sister and brother in law at the No Nukes concert at MSG in 1979. Very emotional performance.
Fields of Athenry (Version for Andrew Farrar - USM killed in Iraq) - Dropkick Murphy's
Tim McGraw - Live like You Were Dying
Heaven is the Face -Stephen Curtis Chapman, the Pastor at one of our local churches sang this at the funeral service for my son's 7 year old classmate who died of cancer...not a dry eye among about 500 or attending....

Thank-s B for bringing this back on top, and I hope all is well!
My lady loves that song, and we both love Jeff as we turned our lives around after seeing him in 75 at the Arie Crown Theater in Chicago.
I had to go back and edit my post from 08 as the video link was broken.

If you have ever been bullied in your life, then you can relate. If you never have been bullied, then I'll tell you that you are lucky, and please trust me when I say this you have no idea what it's like, but Jillian God Bless her soul, will show you JUST HOW PAINFUL IT REALLY IS!!! This girl is just amazing, and IMO will win the X Factor competion this year. She is so strong and brave and I also have to give props to Demi Lavoto as well. She is a rock but soft as well, but helps Jillian to conquer her demons. I have never ever cried so much as I have every single time I watch this video. And yes I was bullied growing up as a kid. Sorry for the DAMN ADDS, not my doing.

P.S. The only person ever to make Simon Cry. She is a very special, talented girl. I just love that raw raspy voice, and she can carry a tune. Just a great unusual voice.
