Big one for me is Clapton's Tears in Heaven. Can't stand Clapton but a classical guitarist played it at my wedding and it makes me go all funny.
Damn, there's so many. Someone mentioned Kate Rusby's My Young Man, but there's several of hers, particularly Underneath The Stars, when the brass band comes in, where I go tingly all over. Elbow just never fail, Starlings, Newborn, Fugitive Motel, One Day Like This, all make me come over all unnessessary. Emmylou Harris' Prayer In Open D can move me to tears, and U2's Where The Streets Have No Name is a guaranteed spine-tingler, always reminds me of playing it at high volume on the way to Cardiff to see them at the Arms Park.
