Live music performances that are particularly moving

Peter Hollens and a high school choir doing Homeward Bound. Be sure to watch the end where he explains the backstory; it literally brings tears to my eyes.

Lol — you mean While My Guitar Gently Weeps, the legendary song by the Beatles?

NP: If the PP is talking about the performance that includes George Harrison’s son at a tribute to George Harrison, this is definitely one of the best performances that I have ever seen. Everyone is good, but Prince is beyond outstanding.

This is it and it is amazing

Surprised no one has yet mentioned David Byrne and his recent Broadway show (now on HBO).

His cover of Janelle Monáe's "Hell You Talmbout" is very moving.

Oh yeah! Good call!

It’s not exactly moving (well, it moved me to laughter) but did you see Alec Baldwin doing the mournful piano performance as Trump? They even used the “I’m not giving up, and neither should you” in the sketch. I was rolling! Skip to about 6:25.

Anyone familiar with Megan Hilty (actress and Broadway star)? This video of her singing “They Just Keep Moving the Line” brings me to my feet every time.

Kelly Clarkson piece by piece..sad now that she's split from her husband

Watch this if you need to check if you have a heart. Kelly Clarkson is 9 months pregnant here, performing on American Idol, which she won not long after being homeless. A 3 tissue performance when they cut to Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban.

Wow. I'm so glad I wasn't PMSing or pregnant when I watched this. So touching.
