Mine would be tears in heaven by Eric Clapton and Hallelujah can bring a tear to my eye.

My bad. Peter Gabriel covered Susanne. Bono covered radically different arrangement. They were both on an album called "Tower of Song a Tribute to Leonard Cohen."

Peace Out,

The video for his version of "Hurt" does me in....

 

Sam Stone -John Prine

'puff the magic dragon' gets me all day any day... such a sad sad song. 'looks like rain' by the grateful dead, too.

The only time I really cried because of a song was eve of destruction by barry mcguire. I was listening to it one night and just started bawling. It describes the state of the world perfectly, and it's really really sad.

 

Maybe I'm taking this thread a little to literally, because I've been wracking my brain really trying to find a song that really brings a tear to my eye . There are alot of emotionally charged songs out there- but to really bring a tear to my eye? there are very few - like this one:

A song called 'Mercy' by IAMX gets to me

Reminds me of a girl I sort of saw for a small while. She basically was my dream girl, and I was just bait.

Seriously, I know everybody puts videos up. If you like good lyrics about obsession and heartbreak- this is your song.

 

It didn't bring a tear to my eye but I like this song a lot. I like the song's transitions from the melancholy first 3 minutes to the more epic sounding last 3 minutes that reminded me of Black Sabbath a la Vol. 4.

 

Never fails.

so sad.

 

Imaginary Being:
I love Placebo
I haven't really listened to that song though, I think I'll check it outt.

 

Hah, in that case Placebo and I love you too

They are really great, I could literally name loads of songs, I feel ripping off their discography by only naming one

 

lol if you don't cry while watching whiskey lullaby you have no soul

 

There are a couple songs that don't outright make me cry, but they're pretty saddening. I could actually name about a billion since I def went through that totally emo phase, but here are a couple that I still actually listen to or just had to name because they're so damn depressing or sweet:
Can't Stand Losing You - The Police. (I guess you'd call it lack of confidence, but to go on living doesn't make no sense)
I Could Die For You - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sieze the Day - Avenged Sevenfold
Gone Away - The Offspring (And it feels like Heaven's so far away)
Polar Opposites - Modest Mouse (I'm trying to drink away the part of the day that I cannot sleep away)
The Town That You Live In - Sherwood
One Headlight - The Wallflowers (That's when they say I lost my only friend, they said she died easy of a broken heart disease)

 

Aw yay haha.
They are great.
I could name quite a few songs, but I'm not gonna act like I'm their greatest fan haha, I didn't really start listeninng to them til sorta recently. but they're music is amazingg
