Laugh at me if you like, but Paul robeson's old man river made me a little sad. I didn't cry, though.

Not because I'm empathizing with the musicians or the lyrics but these songs bring back some really hard to take nostalgia of bad things in bad times.

[Princess Luna]

I am ashamed to admit that I actually like this song, but damn is it sad :crying:

The only song i've ever cried to is Landlocked Blues by Bright Eyes.

The only song i've ever cried to is Landlocked Blues by Bright Eyes.i love that song but... never really thought about it having that effect? Weird how music affects people in different ways.

[Pirate Utopian]

Kid Cudi - Pursuit of Happiness

Because I was listening to that song when I heard my dog had to be put to sleep, I tend to indentify the song with that. It kinda ruined the song for me.

I was on a two-day train hurtling my way through Rajasthan, by myself, at like five in the morning. It was truly bizarre.

Feeling nostalgic... Hadn't heard this band for about 7 years until the other day. This was my jam in high school.

So if I can't have you I'll just close my eyes
And pretend she is you. Pretend you are mine.

Today I prayed my plane would crash.
You'd here the news
And think of me as much as I thought of you.

I didn't list this as one of my songs but the entire 'to venus and back' double album makes me sad.

Creep by Radiohead. The first time I actually listened to the lyrics it just brought me back to some times that were hard:

Photograph by Nickelback. I get a lot of shit for liking this song for some reason but I love it. Brings on the nostalgia and then when I get to thinking that I have to say goodbye to those times it's like :crying:

Sorry for going emo kid on you all, but this one reminds me of when my best friend was suicidal. I can't really listen to it anymore because of that.

It's a miracle! Lyrics about love that actually make sense and don't sound cheesy!

I'm wearing an Indian Summer shirt right now and it's that picture. What a coincidence!

Oh, and "Angry Son" is one of the best (emotive) hardcore songs of all time.
That bass line + the chorus = gets me every time

I like the album version better (I think I posted it in this thread earlier?)
This one has better production, but the original packs such an emotional punch. The spoken interlude and ending isn't rushed either.

Anyway,

It's such a powerful song, even though I can't relate.

[X5N]

I didn't cry, but the first time I listened to Tell Me What To Swallow by Crystal Castles, I was sufficiently depressed.

And I almost teared up listening to the intro song for the game Rage.

I don't think a song has ever made me cry though.

The best thing about it is how basic it all is, but that it still gets everything across the way that it does. I've only just begun my journey into emo/skramz type stuff and I was lucky to run into this song. Do you have any idea where I might be able to buy or download any screamo type stuff online? I love how underground the whole thing was/is but it's just a pain trying to find their music anywhere other than YouTube.

Again, I tried searching for their music too but all I found was the other album (or albums, can't remember) which this song isn't on. I had to resort to a video converter. :o

PM'ing you the answer. If you ever need suggestions, just ask. Been into it for about 8-9 years now.

[Zostrianos]

I never had a song that made me cry, but one almost did. When I was a teenager I used to listen to 2pac a lot, and there's one song that's so dreary, dark and disturbing that it almost brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it:

0cueWd7BHZk

If complete hopelessness and desperation could be turned into a song, I think this would be the result. To this day it still leaves me depressed after I hear it.

I put the pistol to my head, and say a prayer
I see visions of me dead, Lord are you there?
...
Nowhere to run I'm in terror, and no one cares
A closed casket at my funeral and no one's there

The saddest song and scene ever:


yqrc46ouZz8


And When They Ask Us

And when they ask us, how dangerous it was,
Oh, we'll never tell them, no, we'll never tell them:
We spent our pay in some cafe,
And fought wild women night and day,
'Twas the cushiest job we ever had.

And when they ask us, and they're certainly going to ask us,
The reason why we didn't win the Croix de Guerre,
Oh, we'll never tell them, oh, we'll never tell them
There was a front, but damned if we knew where.

I completely agree with El Chuncho about "The first time I ever saw your face": it is one of the most beautiful love songs I know. Sung by Peggy Seager, for whom it was written, it has tremendous poignancy. It speaks directly to the profundity of that moment when you first see the one you love.

Sounds sad but John Denver's Sun Shine on my Shoulder reduces me to tears, one of my father's favourite songs

Father and Son, by Cat Stevens speaks volumes about the difficulty of father and son relationships, especially back in the day when fathers were meant to be tough and show no real emotions. I suspect it speaks directly and profoundly to many men of a certain age.

Ian Dury's My old man is in a similar vein.

[ernie2]

Just hearing the first notes of Thom Parrot's Pinkville Helicopter has me in tears.

Vim Garrbutt's City of Angels will reduce anyone to tears:(
