You've reached the level of "absolute legend".

Seriously, people, listen to "Nobody's Hero". It'll make your eyes sting.

MANOWAR - BATTLE HYMN.

*SNIFF* SO BEAUTIFUL!

By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side
With swords drawn held high
Our whips and armours shine
Hail to thee our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All have sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now

Gone are the days when freedom shone
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way
The sands of time will shade
How proud our soldiers stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound the charge into glory ride
Over the top of the vanguished pride

To the battle we ride
We crossed a starlit sky
No space no time
We'll catch the wind
Strange losses, men died
We crossed a starlit sky
And still no space or time
We'll catch the wind

Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of the anguished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousand side by side
 
Some of Peter Gabriel's best songs are his Genesis days, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is an amazing album
 
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters and Mama Said

Sometimes they make me cry...otherwise they make me stop doing what I was doing and just listen to it. But at the same time it makes me happy. Damn good songs imo.

Oh yeah, and the Scientist by Coldplay, moving song :'(
 
Strictly speaking not a song.

"Last Post"

and in the right circumstances

"Scotland The Brave"

I know, I'm odd.
 
Last Post - Who wrote this song? I have no idea.
Feel Good Inc., by Gorillaz - Man, that was a weird song to cry to. But relationship problems make every song sad or bitingly ironic.
The Scientist, by Coldplay - Can't remember why.
Good Riddance, by Green Day - Once it made me really really nostalgic for the "good ol' days" when I wasn't yet ten years old, and nothing really mattered.

That is all...

So far.
 
I don't remember crying for a song, but some really put me into an emotive trance:

Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead
Karma Police - Radiohead
Julie & Candy - Boards of Canada
The Scientist - Coldplay

i had the chance to buy tickets for a show this summer, but i'm only a fan of a couple of songs so didn't bother.

I've listened to parachutes since then and have been kicking myself ever since, theres a bruise :/
 
CRAWLING IN MY SKIIIIIIINNNN
Ok, not really. :hmph:

What does make me sad is the soundtrack for Max Payne 2 and the credits song for it.

And I cried a few times while hearing the Mafia theme ;(
 
Last post is amazing, emotional for the listener. I used to play the trumpet and I can safely say it is a very fun piece to play technically as well.

Another song I have cried to is 'Now we are free' from the Gladiator sound track. By Enya.
 
Is that the song at the end where he kills Caesar and he has the dream where he's running back home?

ok i actually did cry to that one, right at the end of the film :/

and yeah thats the one Qon
 
Yep, me too. I cried hard... I was surprised I did at the end. I usually don't but I just took it all in. His wife and son were slaughtered, and he's going to see them again.

;(
 
None. No songs have done it for me. Movies on the other hand....

Best Lyric Ever

On topic, i havn't properly cried at songs, but i've come near with NiN - Hurt and Athlete - Wires as well as Radiohead - How to Disappear Completely

Ooh, yeah, that reminds me - the first time I ever saw the video for the Hurt cover by Johnny Cash made me cry as well, and sent shivers down my spine. NiN are quite good, but imo, Johnny Cash really makes the song his own.
 
A Warm Place on the Downward Spiral could probably make me cry if I was depressed enough.
 
No song has ever made me cry on its own. But Scientist made eyes water a bit in conjunction with certain events, and Mother (Pink Floyd) almost made me cry as it came on my MP3 player at a certain point the other day...
 
The solo in Comfortably Numb gets me pretty close sometimes. No idea why, it's just so...

Yeah.

Awesome, awesome song. :thumbs:
 
The entire Wall album is pretty sad, actually. The film even more so.

Poets of the Fall - Late Goodbye is the song.

The solo in Closed Eye Visuals gets me all teary eyed.
 
Eminem - Stan
Hallelujiah - when it was on Scrubs. Damn, Scrubs makes me cry a lot if I'm down, it's like LSD - If you're happy you get high, if you're sad you get low.
Franz Ferdinand - Tell Her Tonight - kinda tied in with something going on in my life at the time
Bright Eyes - and if you watched watership down, you'd cry, too
Rammstein - Mutter - when he's screaming Mutter over and over... it's not a happy song

I also cry when people play The Jitterbug, but that's for entirely different reasons :P
 
Comptine d'un autre été - Yann Tiersen
Sail to the moon - Radiohead

Although I've never cried while listening to them, they have a powerful effect on me.

ah yes, that film was bloody, and my parents had no problem with me watching it when i was 8.

I cry to it because we used it for the funerals of my families pets :(
 
I've never really cried to any song..but one song almost did...it was ghost love score by Nightwish...IMO, the best song ever written by any metal band ever. It still has the same powerful effect..but the first time was musical bliss...10 minutes of perfection.
