* In 2010, *** performed a tribute to the late Michael Jackson at the BET Awards, after performing his own rendition of Smooth Criminal and Billie Jean, complete with the songs' respective dances, Brown broke into "Man In The Mirror", only to become choked up by tears. If this wasn't enough, the ENTIRE AUDIENCE began singing FOR HIM when it was apparent he was too choked up over his former mentor's death.

* Music/Yellowcard's "Dear Bobbie"

* Edwin McCain's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMiVeK5zGz8 I'll Be]]", full stop. The most heartwarming line, "I'll be the greatest fan of your life", would be creepy, except for the fact that you'd have to be made of stone not to feel the pure love in McCain's voice.

* Robert Burns's iconic song, "Is There For Honest Poverty", popularly known as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSoxa8XpJ84 A Man's A Man]]". Written in an age of opression and poverty, it asserts the fundamental equality and, more importantly, ''humanity'' of all people. Not only is every "belted knight" ultimately no more than human, every impoverised peasant, worker and slave is no ''less''. Also a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, given how unreservedely the song flew in the political and social estbalishment of the day, and an anvil which certainly [[SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped needed to be dropped]].

* "TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside." We've heard it so often that the message is usually taken for granted or mocked as trite and meaningless, but [[SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped it bears repeating as often as possible, because]] '''[[SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped it's true]]''', and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNqQUojBg84 "More Beautiful You" by Jonny Diaz]] does it in a very heartwarming way. The song is from a Christian perspective, but no matter what you believe in, Diaz's message holds up just fine: You might not be happy with yourself or maybe you feel the need to be "perfect", but you ''are'' loved, just the way you are, [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre and you are deserving of that love]].

* On the Music/BruceSpringsteen album "Live 1975-1985" is an eleven minute live track of one of Springsteen's most famous and beautiful songs, "The River". The first five minutes of the track are Springsteen talking about his difficult relationship with his father as a teenager, including how his father told him at one time that he couldn't wait for the army to get him (Bruce), so they would "Make a man out of you." He then talks about how when he got his draft notice for the Vietnam War, he hid it from his parents and disappeared with his friends for several days before going to take his physical. After failing the physical, Springsteen returned home to find his worried parents waiting for him. When he told his parents where he'd been, and that the army hadn't taken him, his father only replied "That's good." Springsteen then jumps into an incredibly soulful and emotional performance of "The River." DAMN.

* Jason Derulo's "Marry Me". Almost on-par with "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Love is in Bloom]]" as a song that basically screams "PLAY ME AT A WEDDING!!!!!!".

* Music/EltonJohn has one simple question for you: ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkGDrV_2ehI "CAAAAAN you feeeelll the looove toniiight?"]]''

* With the coronavirus pandemic inflicting uncertainty, fear and extremely radical changes, Celeste also offers a [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ENYFCYcEHa4 rendition of a classic song by the late Bill Withers to give hope to the UK.]]
* Also during the coronavirus pandemic, a Second World War veteran named Tom Moore set himself a challenge of walking 100 lengths of his garden in time for his 100th birthday, with the aim of raising £1000 for the NHS. Upon completing his 100th lap, he and singer Michael Ball appeared on ''BBC Breakfast'', with the latter singing "You’ll Never Walk Alone" to the former. It was later released as a single, which looked like it would fall just short of the [=No1=] spot... until Music/TheWeeknd heard about it and tweeted his support for them. The single then jumped above his to claim the top spot on 24 April 2020. To add to the heartwarming story, the chart would still be the current one on 30 April 2020 - Moore’s 100th birthday, making him both the oldest chart-topper and the first centenarian to top the UK chart.

* Andy Grammer's "Honey, I'm Good" is already heartwarming on it's own--the singer is basically refusing to go home with a pretty girl because he's already taken, no YourCheatingHeart here--but the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go7gn6dugu0 official music video]] adds to it by showcasing several happy couples that have been together for several years or even ''decades''.

* The song ''March Against The Tyrant'' by Music/{{Rhapsody Of Fire}}, despite being about [[TheSiege siege warfare]], is an absolutely gorgeous anthem about fighting for justice and peace no matter the odds.

** "Butterfly Kisses." Also a major TearJerker.
** "I Loved Her First."

** The story behind "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" makes one line and moment poignant -- it's Bono's elegy for his father, who was always a big opera fan. During the line "Can you hear me when I sing/You're the reason the opera's in me," Bono hits this Beyond the Impossible high note -- oh, and by the way, his father was a tenor.
** The Sweetest Thing. A completely adorable little song written as an apology to Bono's wife Ali after he missed her birthday while recording The Joshua Tree. Awww.
** The 12-minute version of Bad in the 1985 Live Aid concert. Why so long, you ask? Halfway through the song, Bono noticed a teenage girl being pinned against the railings, and is in danger of getting crushed. He notified the audience and the security, who pulled her out and into the front of the whole audience, where he hugged the young lady and danced along to the song with her for a while. The way this matches up with the music makes it an incredibly beautifully surreal moment that helped define the concert and powered their rise to superstardom.

* Dan Fogelberg's "Run for the Roses," a sweet, pretty ballad about the life of a Kentucky Derby racehorse definitely causes SugarWiki/{{WAFF}}: "It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance/And it's time that you joined in the dance..."
** It's sweet and heartwarming until you watch two horses in three years go down in the Triple Crown races (Barbaro in the Preakness, 2006, and Eight Belles in the Derby, 2008), and then you [[TearJerker bawl]] every time you hear it.
