You have to earn it first, young man! ;) Hi's to you, too.

"God Only Knows" Beach Boys
"Nothing Compares 2 U" Sinead O'Connor
"Intervention" Arcade Fire

death of the clayton peacock by john fahey

Combined with the Video clip its a pretty powerful track. When the first 'Wonder how it came to be my friend" comes along, theres a slo-mo of the band waving their guitars together which gets me all emotional for some reason.

Cat Power's King Rides By is a pretty emotional track.

In addition to that, "Circle" by Miles Davis from Miles Smiles is probably the most beautiful performance ive ever heard, always stirs the emotions

The Undertones - Teenage Kicks
Joy Division - Atmosphere

whenever I hear these now it reminds me of John's funeral :(

and you'll never walk alone.

The Hollies - Jesus Was A Crossmaker

It's kinda beautiful, mostly because I listened to it around a period in my life when a relative died. Everytime I hear it I think of the funeral, which btw was my first and sofar only one (no, I'm not fishing for sympathy).

The Sleepwalker by Cat Power makes me sentimental

Due to the circumstances in which they were recorded, and the tragic end, Johnny Cash's "American Recordings V: A Hundred Highways" and "American Recordings VI: Ain't No Grave" aren't exactly easy to listen to without being touched by the grim, raw emotion of the songs.

God

I don't cry.

This song makes me nostalgiac, especially as I'm getting older. Stiffer. More aches.

"Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley, which is supposed to have the opposite effect. My wife used to sing it to my son, and now that she's gone, it kills me to hear it.

Sigur Ros - Samskeyti

Songs that make you cry
 

I am hoping there isnt a thread like this, but i was wondering, what songs make you cry? mine are


In Any Other World
Happy Ending
Almost Lover
Vicarious
Wake Me Up When September Ends


and more i cant think of.
so, what songs make u cry?

Just a few off the top of my head... some may sound absurd, but keep an open mind. I'm an old fart and have been listening to music for a long time...

Broken Social Scene-"Anthems for a 17 year old Girl"
Yo La Tengo- "Green Arrow"
The Cure- "Plainsong"
Tom Petty (& the Heartbreakers? Not sure)- "Learning to Fly"
Kim Carnes- "Bette Davis Eyes"
Pavement- "Texas Never Whispers"
The Beatles- "Blackbird"
Pearl Jam- "Nothingman" (I don't even LIKE this fucking song, but the chord arrangement gets me every time)
DCFC- "Movie Script Ending" (Another one I don't even like, but it's about a town I know very well, and it paints a pretty damn good picture of the experience of being a scenester in the '90s)

And more and more and more... some I love, some I hate, some I will never listen to again.

not J5, but "Human Nature" KILLS me. So amazing.

who gives a shit? Beautiful song. One of my favorite songs of all time. I always think of making a mix of covers and songs that sampled it... Miles Davis, Nas, 2Pac, etc.

it makes me feel really peaceful. It has a certain soothing quality to it. Like a lullaby.

Pancho and Lefty - Townes Van Zandt
Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson
Slow Grafitti - Belle & Sebastian
There Stands The Glass - Webb Pierce
Diggin' Up Bones - Randy Travis
The Gun Club - Secret Fires
Lou Reed - Caroline Says II
David Bowie - Rock n' Roll Suicide
Stephen Malkmus - Jenny and the Ess-dog

Agreed.

I am not a Cat Power fan, but this song (as well as "Color and the Kids") gets me every. single. time.

Cant' help it. I just tear right up.

Oh man, heard "Let Us Sleep Now", the finale to Britten's War Requiem, in Music History class yesterday. I got the vapors.

7 pages in and no one mentioned "For No One" by Sir Paul? :(

hence why you are supposed to play it over and over again.

EDIT: ctrl + f = quicksearch.

Big Star - Thirteen

The Replacements - Here Comes A Regular

SY song: Tunic. It's easily my favourite of theirs.

General song: Haushinka, by Green Day. Not a particularly sad song in itself, but earlier this year a girl who I had a lot of feelings for (both romantic and platonic) moved away, and the lyrics keep reminding me of her. Shame, the song's awesome. https://youtu.be/4ATkdYngGQc

Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing (Ft. David Bowie)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c14qMbmP9eg

Low- Little Argument with Myself

Bill Callahan "Riding For The Feeling"

Deftones - Sextape
Nine Inch Nails - And All That Could've Been
Nine Inch Nails - Something I Can Never Have
Nine Inch Nails - Hurt
Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - A Minute to Breathe

Whigfield - Saturday Night

Alice Deejay - Better off Alone

Queen - Radio gaga. 'Radio! Someone still loves youuu' gets me by the proverbial tear-ducts every single time.

Nickleback - discography. Especially the alcohol song - these guys have been there, down to the bottom of the bottle where I heard they bumped into Trent.

Any modern rap - the depressive immaturity gets me every time. Actually welling up now just thinking about grammatical error.

The 10 o'clock news jingle - obvious tings.

Anything with a 4:4 beat.
