dinahmt who shall not soon be forgiven for this... ;)
They won't all be "songs." I'll just say my favorite pieces of music, shall I? I also don't think I can get it down to five.
1. First movement of La Mer. The crescendo near the end always makes me burst into tears. I don't listen to it when anyone else is around.
2. Mendelssohn's violin concerto
3. Samuel Barber's "Sure on this Shining Night"
4. Dun Ringill, Jethro Tull
5. Meditation, from Massenet's Thais (probably because I listened to it constantly wheile writing my Sherlock Holmes pastiche, so it's inextricably tied up emotionally with that book)
If you looked at my shelves you would see a lot of Debussy and Jethro Tull, a fair amount of Steeleye Span, and a mix of other stuff.
