Laugh - - this, my favorite line (and scene) in the movie "A Christmas Story" (The Mother's last line in this clip is my favorite line in the movie.)
Cry -- Polish composer Henryk Gorecki's "Symphony No. 3 : 'Symphony of Sorrowful Songs' "
The first time I listened to the 54 minutes-long symphony, I literally was crying at its beauty, real tears, bent over. And that was before I knew the inspiration for Gorecki's symphony : The German occupation of Poland during World War II. And I cried even more when finding out that Gorecki used for lyrics words that were inscribed on concentration camp walls, written by prisoners. Here is a video with some of the symphony.

Cry - The Living Years by Mike & The Mechanics. Even though he's singing about his father, it's about Mum to me - I wasn't able to be there when she passed and there was so much that will forever remain unsaid.
