Songs that make you want to cry

Post by PetZounds »

Cut the tough-guy bullshit, drop the act.
You know there are some songs that make you want to wail like a big ol' baby.
Post them here, we won't judge you.
Let's cry together, motherfuckers. :group:

Here are a few of mine:

Harvey Milk, "Brown Water"
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8S75VZIr4s[/youtube]


Tom Waits, "Tango 'till They're Sore"
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2Tn8w1w2_Y[/youtube]


And the biggest repeat offender on my list:
LCD Soundsystem, "New York, I Love You, But You're Bringing Me Down"

Bon Iver - Woods
Manchester Orchestra - I Can Feel You Pain & I Can Feel A Hot One

All three have made me cry nearly every time I've listened to them.

'Good woman' by cat power. And lately 'she came along to me' by billy bragg and wilco. That ones in a good way though, my wife walked down the aisle to it.

Probably have more, I'm a weiner.

The Dismemberment Plan - Come Home


Called in sick to work today, I couldn't have gotten a damn thing done anyhow.
Made myself some coffee and I listened to the rain rattling leaves, yeah.

I told myself there's nothing wrong and stared right through the paper for a
long, long time
Stuck inside your dream so long it wears you down and grows you old....and
that's a fact

Cold light comes to clear the fog away from time to time....it'll be back soon

I used to think that justice had to rule for happy lives, but now I'm not so
sure at all

Come home
Why don’t you come home I could not remember why you left
And I’d rather be happy than right this time

Called my dad to check in and to maybe find some common sense...more or less

He says "common sense is such a scam", and I'm like 'Dad, what do you mean?, oh'
He says "you're either wrong or right and life will go on either way, whatever
you chose"....but I know...

That anger's all right..and bitterness no.
Cold uncontrollably sad, and unable to let it go.

And it should be as easy as telling a scab from a scar
Well I don’t know

Called in sick to work today I couldn’t have gotten a damn thing done

i'm sure there's more

and frankly i don't usually even focus on lyrics (although I've sang Hurt so many times i know that one by heart). it's usually the timbre and overall atmosphere of the songs that gets me
btw - almost cried when I saw NIN play Hurt on Wednesday. Far stronger than the studio version, just insanely touching. Too bad the people couldn't shut the fuck up
I make pedal demos as East Stomp Boutique - http://www.youtube.com/c/eaststompboutique

May be a cheat because it features Charlie Chaplin's speech from "The Great Dictator," but it made me cry at work the first time I listened. Now it takes a different shot as being the last Chariot song.

You guys might hate me for this, but this used to get me going. From way back before they sucked.

No lie, he wrote that song after all their amps were stolen.
Saddest thing I can imagine.
