Tearjerker / Sheena Easton

Go To

  • Her verison of "It's Christmas All Over the World" makes people cry because the way she sings, you just wish it was Christmas eternally.
  • "For Your Eyes Only" just has a haunting melody and the love she feels is special, even if it's only brief in duration.
  • The 1983 live version of We've Got Tonight is one for both Kenny Rogers and her, as his voice sounds like it wants to crack and it sounds like she has finally found love after a lifetime of searching. And during the last verse, he holds her hand and grabs her into a big bear hug as she smiles.
    • The 2010 live version really hits harder, as the timbre of their voices have changed and the song's meaning changes as it becomes what might be the last time they ever make love. Plus, just watch her face as Kenny completely butchers his lyrical cue and then at the end, her "Come take my hand now", she is holding his hand and he kisses the top of her head while the arms around each other's waists.
  • "The Arms of Orion" is super sad as you can hear the pain in both her's and Prince's voices as they are worlds apart and drowning without each other, but they know that one day they'll be together on the song's titular arms.
  • "When He Shines" is one that causes tears, as she loves her man through all his faults. Also could be interpreted as a tribute to her dad, who died when she was 10 years old.
  • "Dream Worth Keeping" is one of those songs that can reach at your heart strings. It sounds like a sappy 90s romantic ballad and the way she delivers it, you want to pursue whatever dreams you have put on hold.
