Songs that have made you cry?

Now im not some incredibly emotional lad but sometimes i have just been overwhelmed with emotion when hearing a song. In the backseat by the arcade was a song i heard for the first time after my cousin died in a car crash and that whole funeral album was actually a comfort to me at the time. Getting into elliott smith also…

In the backseat by the arcade was a song i heard for the first time after my cousin died in a car crash and that whole funeral album was actually a comfort to me at the time. Getting into elliott smith also induced many a tear and many others that i could name as well. So what about you?

Depending on the scenario, I have been brought to tears by Elliott Smith a few times.

In particular, both 'a fond farewell' and 'kings crossing' and their running order.

I love Elliott Smith, but don't think I've ever cried while listening to him...
I did (very embarrassingly) cry while listening to Arcade Fire once...it was the day I got back from Oxegen one year...I was walking to the shop, it was drizzling, and I was in the midst of a horrific comedown...when Keep The Car Running came on I started to sob on the side of the road...cringeworthy...
I'm not even that big a fan of theirs...

Jedward - Lipstick ... but it's more from the pain in my ears and brain and a tear of sorrow for the state of the Irish music industry

So a Eurovision Song Contest entry is a reflection of any sort of music industry? :pac:
