I just saw "Badly Drawn Boy" last night. I have no clue of the names of the songs, but two of them made me weepy.

Two that always get me have already been mentioned here: Pink Floyd's When the Tigers Broke Free and Cry, Cry, Cry's rendition of Cold Missouri Waters . The one song, that really, really nails me, though, is Mike and the Mechanic's In The Living Years , the lyrics tear at you and Paul Carrick's vocals just really dig it deep down into your soul.

quote: My music tend to deepen and intensify my feelings, but rarely cause them.
That's how it is for me too. Songs that make me more sad: "Perfect" by Simple Plan Amazing Grace "Here without you" by 3 Doors Down

Badly Drawn Boy is excellent. Never heard a song of his that made me sad, though; all of them have always struck me as more happy-melancholy.

"Creep" by Stone Temple Pilots "Home" and "Cover Me" by Candlebox "Hurt", "The Great Below", and the remix of "The frail" by Nine Inch Nails "Naked" by Goo Goo Dolls "Missing" Everything BUt the Girl "Not an Addict" K's Choice "Rosalita" Better Than Ezra "Soma" and "to Forgive" Smashing Pumpkins Just about anything by Staind, especially "Home" (I don't listen to them anymore) Just about anything by Stabbing Westward if I've had a recent breakup.
I'm sure there's lots more. Music really hits an emotional chord. (pun not intended, but will leave in anyway)

"Unforgettable," the duet by Natalie Cole and (posthumously) father Nat King Cole
"Leader of the Band," by Dan Fogelburg
quote:I thank you for the music and your stories of the road I thank you for the freedom when it came my time to go I thank you for the kindness and the times when you got tough And papa I don't think I said "I love you" near enough

The music I'm listening to right now makes me cry. It's background music from Gundam Seed, and it's really sad.
The Tuck Everlasting soundtrack makes me cry, too. So does the Evenstar theme from TTT. And sometimes the Rohan theme. And the last track on the X-Files movie sountrack, if I'm in the right mood.
Like movies and books, music makes me cry pretty easily.
I really like that song covered by Foo Fighters "down in the park"
I never cried while listening to it, but I always get this weird feeling. I haven't heard it in years.

Dragon, I agree with "Here Without You." Song makes me cry at the bridge.
And the song that I said at the beginning of this thread, "Seeing is Believing", will still do it to me.

No doubt you're crying three suburbs away Life goes on - me i'm walking around the block You said we never should have bothered But i looked into your heavy eyes & i said "No" You'll find a way to be happy again my love You'll find a way to be happy again my old love
I went to see the band in concert a couple of weeks after my boyfriend and I broke up (now back together and going strong - it's our 3 year anniversary in two weeks ) and they played this song: I bawled my eyes out right there and then. Very embarrasing.

"Wicked ways", Chris Isaak. Actually this is the song that made me start to cry again. After my mother's death, three years ago, a funny thing happenned to me : I became unable to cry... A strange sensation to feel the will to cry and be physically unable to. I had hard times, really, and still was unable to cry. One day I saw the CD in a shop, and I bought it from an impulsion. When I listened to it, my tears have been freed. And that's how I'm able to cry today, and I love this song for that even if it still makes me cry.

I cry when I hear "Macho Man", from Village People.
No, no...realy...er..."Dead Boy's Poem", by Nightwish.
(...) Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin Died for the beauty the one in the garden Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom Failed in becoming a god
Never sigh...
"If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker's cry the one without tears For I've given this its strength and it has become my only strength. Comforting home, mother's lap, chance for immortality where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life"
"Teach me passion for I fear it's gone Show me love, hold the lorn So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I'm sorry Time will tell (this bitter farewell) I live no more to shame nor me nor you And you... I wish I didn't feel for you anymore..." (...) (Dead Boy's Poem - Nightwish)
