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.

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 used to give me a certain feeling a can't describe.


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

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? :(

louder 04.12.2012 09:09 PM

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

EDIT: ctrl + f = quicksearch.

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)

Nine Inch Nails - Something I Can Never Have

Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - A Minute to Breathe

Diesel 12.02.2018 08:20 AM

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.
