Wire's - By Athlete

[EdnaKrabappe 14]

I don't like having songs that make me cry. You should like a song for its own sake so I don't really like it when they become associated with a memory for me.

 

However, I am but human so the suspects are:

 

Bright Eyes... Art Garfunkel I just think of the film and I'm off!

 

My last tango... Nerina Pallot... I'd just got into her and was going through a pappy break up early last Summer where neither of us wanted to split up but circumstance made us (all for the right reasons.) Every time this came on I'd burst into tears! Shame as it's a beautiful song.

 

You do something to me... Paul Weller... My best mate had it as her second song at her wedding, partly because she loves it, she loves me (and I love Paul Weller.) I was meant to dance to it with my long term ex (this had been planned with military precision by my mate for ages:rolleyes: ) but as he could be nowhere to be found, I ended up dancing with her brother in law instead. Therefore to me it signifies the first time I thought something was wrong and although I'd always loved the song, it still makes me feel uncomfortable and is probably one i bypass when i listen to Stanley Road.

 

 

I can understand why people cry to Aqualung songs. They are just gorgeous!

Yes, that does it for me too!

The Living Dead by Suede

 

Asleep by The Smiths

 

For No One by The Beatles

 

This is Yesterday by the Manics

 

Pretty much any 'ballad' by Tom Waits

 

Rocking in The Free World by Neil Young

 

Thats quite a few isn't it? And those are only the tip of the iceberg.

The song that makes me sob (and i mean body wracking sobbing) is

My Immortal by Evanescence

 

There is a long story behind it and the story actually has a happy ending, but this song reminds me of what i almost lost and i feel grateful that i have taken a leap of faith!

[leviathan13 350]

For me, almost anything by Queen. Freddie's voice was just immense in every single song they did and that's usually what gets me. Although, a few perfect notes from Brian's guitar wrenches a little too.

 

Ride On by AC/DC too.

[steadiman 10]

Wow this does it every time and its been eight years since..........(long story)

[swordfish1 10]

When my marriage broke up 8 years ago, this brought me to tears, not ashamed to say so.

 

The Cure - Trust Lyrics

 

there's no-one left in the world

that i can hold onto

there is really no-one left at all

there is only you

and if you leave me now

you leave all that we were

undone

there is really no-one left

you are the only one

 

and still the hardest part for you

to put your trust in me

i love you more than i can say

why won't you just believe?

monolith....t.rex 1971

[Wok Boy 10]

It's probably embarrassing to say so, but My Chemical Romance's "Famous Last Words" almost brings me to tears. It's just such a powerful song.

 

Plus "Shine Acoustic" by Muse. That's so nice!

[NPB! 10]

Everybody Hurts by R.E.M

 

The one at the end of Man on Fire, can't remember the title

 

One by Katherine Jenkins too, think its called Goodbye
