Thread: Music to bring them tears awwww

hrm.

'amazing grace' on bagpipes?

i've personally always found 'jessie' by joshua kadison to be kind of sad too, although i suppose the lyrics are a little silly.

Streetlight Manifesto - The Big Sleep
AFI - Silver and Cold

Tackey & Tsubasa - True Heart
Sailor Stars Music Collection Volume 1 - Sailor Stars Song ~ Violin/Piano Duet Version
Jennifer Cihi/Sandy Howell - My Only Love
Kaoru Wada - My Will ~ Symphonic Version
Somwhere in Time - Main Score

If you'd like to hear any of these then email me and I will send them to you. Have your heartstrings thoroughly tugged upon!

thanks for the suggestions! Keep em coming hehe

I thought of another (i cant believe i forgot about it):

Eva Cassidy - Somewhere over the Rainbow < that was played at my Grans funneral and it just got me goin.

Oh geeze! Where do I begin. Some are tear-bringers while others are just heart movers. Most are classical because that's what I'm listening to right now.

Tear Bringers
"Honey" (an oldie; can't remember the artist)
"When all is said and done" (Geoff Moore and the Distance)
"If We Never Meet Again" (Selah)
"Adagio for Strings" (Barber - orchestral)
"Moonlight Sonata" (J. S. Beethoven)

Heart Movers
"Adagio" (Albinoni)
Fauré's "Requiem" - namely "En Paradisum" (some movements can also be under Tear Bringers)
"Gollum's Song" from the soundtrack of "The Two Towers"
Most of the "Braveheart" soundtrack

That's all I can think of right now.

i was thinking "Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, but didn't mention it before for whatever reason. If anyone doesn't immediately recognize that, it plays during the credits of Meet Joe Black and it's also in the movie Finding Forrester.


'k bye

god im weird

Thursday, "Streaks in the Sky"

What a Wonderful World gets me a lot too

lucidnina's mentioning of sarah mclachlan reminded me of "Deliver Me" by Sarah Brightman (those two pretty much headed up the soundtrack of "Broken Down Palace"). anyway, it's a great tune... those two sarahs have some incredible voices.

Burzum - Der weinende Hadnur (aka "The Crying Orc")
Witchfinder General - I Lost You
Iced Earth - The Funeral

"If Only Tears Could Bring You Back" - Midnight Sons (From Pokemon:The First Movie)
"If You're Not The One" - Daniel Bedingfield
"Aeris' Theme" - Nobuo Uematsu (From Final Fantasy VII)
"Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" - Jefferson Starship
"Melanie" - Toto

I'm pretty sure there are other's but i can't remember.

The orchestrated version is brilliant.

I liked "Eyes on me" in FF VIII, specially at the ending montage it was really nicely done...

Songs that maybe won't draw a tear in my eye but still move me

"Through her eyes" Dream Theatre (the live version with a guitar intro that lasts for like five minutes is the one that really beats me into submission)

"Love song for a Vampire" Annie Lennox

"How I made millions" Radiohead

"Tajabon" Ismael Lo (I don't know what the hell this song is about, but it gives me really sad memories)

Songs that have brought tears to my eyes:

Aerosmith - Full Circle
Eagle Eye Cherry - Save Tonight
Enanitos Verdes - Eterna Soledad
Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
Green Day - Time Of Your Life
Incubus - Here in My Room
Oasis - Stop crying your heart out (how ironic)
Seether - Your Bore (angry tears mostly)
Smashing Pumpkins - Perfect

As you can see there is a theme going on here...most of them have to do with things coming to an end, issue that has always been pretty hard for me to handle...

Songs that touch me very much:

\"Through her eyes\" Dream Theatre[/b]

never heard the live version, but this song is fucking great) My favorite one from the album is "The spirit carries on" though...that one is just one of the most amazing songs ever

Blink 182 - Adam's Song
Cold - Bleed
Coldplay - In My Place
Coldplay - Trouble
ColdPlay - Yellow
Counting Crows - Colorblind
Counting Crows - Round Here
Green Day - Boulevard of broken dreams
Hoobastank - Disappear
Incubus - Agoraphobia
Incubus - Echo
Incubus - Favorite things
Incubus - Under My Umbrella
Oasis - Little By Little
Pearl Jam - Last Kiss (such a depressing concept)
Puddle Of Mudd - Blurry
Radiohead - Creep
Staind - Outside

Let's leave it with those for now...I revised all of my playlist and found the one's that touched me the most.

I just now realized how much of a cry baby I am....
