    Just wondering what gets at your heart.

    Cried tonight, listening to Seven Spanish Angels, with Merle and Willie.

    Come on, what does it to you?

    hmmm.... that is an intense song friend... Merle has such a harsh, down-trot voice, really resonates a feeling through your bones.

    Old Crow Medicine Show - The Silver Dagger

    The Flaming Lips - All We Have is Now (me and my baby cried our eyes out when this came on after an intense conversation)

    Old Crow Medicine Show - We're All in This Together.

    Simon and Garfunkel's 'The boxer'.

    To quote the weasley twins: 'I haven't been properly dry since...'
    Well okay only since yesterday in my case, but it always gets me past my crying point the moment I start singing along with the 'lie la lie...' and today and yesterday have been particularly full of this song and general melancholy.

    Also a sure-fire cure to dry-eyedness is My Dying Bride's 'Sear me III', everyonemust download it right this moment.

    Morning Dew and Candyman have made me a little teary eyed before, how can it not?, Also like someone else said Wish You Were Here. Unchained Melody is also moving.

    I have to agree with the Boxer. And "Angie" by the Rolling Stones is pretty sad. And "Hallelujah"... I dunno who it's by, but my sis has it on the Shrek soundtrack :)

    Also "Let the Sunshine In" is sad, but also kind of happy. It's hard to explain. Anyway, it's sad because Berger dies :(

    Alice Cooper - "Only Women Bleed"

    Janis Joplin - "Little Girl Blue"

    John Denver - "Mr. Bojangles"

    Isn't Morning Dew about the end of the world or somethin?

    Oh and 2c check out Close To The Edge, and Tales From Topographic Oceans if you like the Relayer album, it's the same insanity on those 2 as well.
    *Although most people say that Tales sucks, but they just dont understand what it's all about.

    I thought it was about dying.. lyrics kinda seem like it to me. Who knows though. Either way, there is so much soul in jerry's voice, and solos in some of the recordings that it just brings a tear to your eye.

    Walk me out in the morning dew my honey,
    Walk me out in the morning dew today.
    I can’t walk you out in the morning dew my honey,
    I can’t walk you out in the morning dew today.

    I thought I heard a baby cry this morning,
    I thought I heard a baby cry today.
    You didn’t hear no baby cry this morning,
    You didn’t hear no baby cry today.

    Where have all the people gone my honey,
    Where have all the people gone today.
    There’s no need for you to be worrying about all those people,
    You never see those people anyway.

    I thought I heard a young man mourn this morning,
    I thought I heard a young man mourn today.
    I thought I heard a young man mourn this morning,
    I can’t walk you out in the morning dew today.

    Walk me out in the morning dew my honey,
    Walk me out in the morning dew today.
    I’ll walk you out in the morning dew my honey,
    I guess it doesn’t really matter anyway,
    I guess it doesn’t matter anyway,
    I guess it doesn’t matter anyway,
    Guess it doesn’t matter anyway.

    I have that same feeling exactly. It's a sad song, but it also speaks of hope.

    And aww, Berger. :(

    Oh, I forgot to mention Tori Amos' 'Bells for her'.
