Songs that make you cry
-
a decent amount of Blue October songs (my fav band)
not sure if any other song has had quite an impact like
Nothingman by Pearl Jam -
Most songs off this album
Al Green – I'm Still In Love With You
:cry2: :cry2: :cry2:
-
_I am not a very religious person but this song always gets me
Brother Sun, Sister Moon - Donovan_
-
I can't pick a particular song that made me cry, its depends on my mood. For instance, I remembered when I listened to Adele's Someone Like You, I wept because at the time the man that I liked chose other over me, but now I listens to that song and just fine with it.
At the moment, song that makes me cry is Mariah Carey - All I Ever Wanted
-
say something- a great big world ft christina aguilera, masterpiece! deep but not overromantic, like other songs. Simple and touching at the same time!

I Cry Too - Bob Geldof
Drive - The Cars
Lucky Man - Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Father and Son - Cat Stevens -
I just remembered one recently: The Gravy Train - St. George's Way
I cried listening to this not long after my dad died last year. That was the only time I've ever actually cried over his passing. I didn't feel the lyrics necessarily reflected the event, but they are very existential, and they remind(ed) me of how fleeting everything is, and how much time has already been lost. -
Dance me to the end of love. I first heard it covered by The Civil Wars. Then I listened to the original version by Leonard Cohen. Both are great, very moving and make me emotional..

Based just on the song by itself–not considering anything with an associated factor such as a film, or particular event or moment--there are some pieces by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir that immediately come to mind.
They may not always bring the tears, but they always bring heavy sighs and goose bumps.
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing definitely is by far my favorite, and as mentioned in other forum posts–I never get tired of it, and hearing it always has me sighing at least a couple of times as it plays, and always a big one as the orchestra is building up and those violins start taking off…sigh, and then–the chorus returns…mm! (In spite of being partial, I have to admit–I do love Brigham Young University’s presentation as well!)…
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

My Shepherd Will Supply My Need - Psalm 23

Better known for their fast tracks, this song by Erasure really packs a punch because of the lyrics.
Erasure: When I Needed You
Youtube VideoAnother is this song, for when you ever have a loved one who has to leave.
Chantal Kreviazuk: Leaving On A Jet Plane
Youtube Video -
Sugarland's Stay is very emotional - especially when watching the simple music video too. And also Faith Hill's There You'll Be, but mostly due to its significance to a life event

I was born just beyond the American Economic Depression, so didn't feel the intensity of the tragedy, but lived with the fall out.
Here's a quick timeline of that era:

Nocturne “Live” (1995) Secret Garden
I loved this the first time I heard the studio recording years ago and this was my first time hearing the “live” version.
Usually liking the studio stuff over the live, this live recording was a pleasant surprise in that I liked it as much, if not more than the studio one.
That violin…is…um…well, it’s just something–definitely moving.
“Live” performance…
Music video (kind of cheesy, but probably didn’t seem as much when it first came out over 20 years ago)…

Ellis' song, "Nocturn" reminded me of a totally different, but equally beautiful piece by Yanni, "Nightingale" as offered here:

From the cheer up song thread, Katy Perry's Teenage Dream makes me sad but not cry. It's more lost time.
The first song from the Last Unicorn movie was so beautifully illustrated, it made me tear up too. Sung my America?

The title sequence from The Last Unicorn makes me cry, too.
And, yes, it was composed by Jimmy Webb and sung by the band, America. That whole soundtrack is probably the only reason I ever managed to develop an appreciation for the band, haha.On the topic of soundtracks, Art Garfunkel's song, Bright Eyes (from Watership Down) completely destroys me. That whole movie just depresses the hell out of me. The last time I watched it, I was despondent for weeks.

The traditional Welsh lullaby - Suo Gân. Eversince I heard it in the movie, Empire of the Sun, it always bring tears to my eyes

'Everybody Hurts' by is very touching

Stone sour : zzyzx
I don't know how else to put this.
It's taken me so long to do this.
I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight.
My muscles feel like a melee,
My body's curled in a U-shape.
I put on my best, but I'm still afraid.
Propped up by lies and promises.
Saving my place as life forgets.
Maybe it's time I saw the world.
I'm only here for a while.
And patience is not my style,
And I'm so tired that I got to go.
What am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?
Tell me I should stick around for you.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.
I'm following suit and directions.
I crawl up inside for protection.
I'm told what to do and I don't know why.
I'm over existing in limbo
I'm over the myths and placebos
I don't really mind if I just fade away
I'm ready to live with my family.
I'm ready to die in obscurity
Cause I'm so tired that I got to go.
Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
You still don't think I'm gonna see this through?
Tell me I'm a part of history.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.Staind: something to remind you
_So this is it
I say goodbye
To this chapter of my ever-changing life
And there's mistakes
The path is long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm goneSo when the day comes in
The sun won't touch my face
Tell the ones who cared enough
That I finally left this placeIts been so cold
Look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase
The road is long
Just one more song
A little something to remind you when I'm gone
When I'm goneThe road to hell
Along the way
Is paved with good intentions so they say
And some believe
That no good deed
That go unpunished in the end or so it seemsSo this is it
I say goodbye
To this chapter of my ever-changing life
And there's mistakes
The path was long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone
When I'm gone_Jason Walker : there shouldn't be a good in goodbye.
_After the silence, after the last words.
Caught in the silence. Caught in between.
After the madness. After the slow shock.
Before the wave hits, the flood comes rushing in.This is the bad before the worse.
This is the storm before the storm
I haven't even hit the bottom of this ocean floor.
This is the bend before the break.
This is the mercy not the grace.
This is the proof and not the faith i try to find.
There shouldn't be a good in goodbye.If I never loved you, if I never felt your kiss.
If I never had you. I know that I…I still would have mourned you.
I would have missed your smile.
If it wasn't so worth it, this wouldn't be...
Oh this wouldn't be the bad before the worse and the storm before the storm.I haven't even hit the bottom of this ocean floor.
This is the bend before the break.
This is the mercy not the grace.
This is the proof and not the faith I try to find.
There shouldn't be a good in goodbye.I know this is gonna get better ohh.
This is the bitter not the sweet.
This is the take and not the keep.
And I haven't even reached the bottom of this ocean floor.There shouldn't be a good in goodbye._

“I Can’t Make You Love Me” Bonnie Raitt (1991)
Although the song doesn’t actually make me cry, it does move me–such a sad situation to be in.
