What Song Makes You Cry (or Feel Sad).

Phil's Garden from the patio.

Mad World

or Classical-the video will surely do it if Barber's Adagio doesn't.

How about you?

Tanpa Nama berkata...: Patti - I have to admit that I get very much into the music when I'm listening to it. So depending on what's going on in my life, a lot of music really affects me deeply. Thanks for sharing these two :-); 7:38 PG
sandra seamans berkata...: Tim McGraw singing "Don't Take the Girl" brings me to tears every time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBc7qeyfq28; 7:58 PG
Tanpa Nama berkata...: Barry Manilow, Copacabana

Just kidding! It does make me puke, if that counts. Songs don't make me cry.

Deb berkata...: A favorite hymn: "Eternal Father, Strong to Save" (with the refrain, "Hear us when we pray to thee/For those in peril on the sea"; I think they sing it in "Titanic"). I can never make it through singing it without crying.; 8:33 PG
Deb berkata...: Here's a nice version:

pattinase (abbott) berkata...: I remember singing that one in church as a kid.
Music has a huge impact on me--either uplifting me or bringing me down, making me feel like dancing, reminding me. Always something.; 8:44 PG
George berkata...: Randy Newman's "I Think It's Going To Rain Today."; 9:16 PG
John McFetridge berkata...: Bruce Springsteen's, "My Hometown." I listened to it yesterday for the line, "I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town," because I did that, too.; 10:24 PG
Charles Gramlich berkata...: Cat's in the Cradle used to make me cry. Now probably "In this River" by Black Label Society.; 11:30 PG
Tanpa Nama berkata...: Jackie has one for you:

I'm Already There by Lonestar.

pattinase (abbott) berkata...: Man, this may have not been such a hot idea. I am really sad now.; 11:55 PG
Tanpa Nama berkata...: Does anyone remember Matt Monroe, Softly as I Leave You? Corny, maybe but it gets me every time.

Chris berkata...: Johnny Cash's version of NIN's "Hurt" will do the trick, especially if I watch the video.

My last band used to play this song called "Stone" that I adapted from a poem whose refrain was basically "I am the stone that breaks every heart" that used to get me quite regularly when we'd play it live. I always thought it was a powerful song, and the build-up of it was something that was always quite compelling to me.; 12:15 PTG
pattinase (abbott) berkata...: HURT tops the lists online of the saddest songs.
Don't know Matt Monroe but the title sounds familiar.; 1:22 PTG
Tanpa Nama berkata...: Three more by three of my favorite singers. First, the saddest song by a master of the genre:

It breaks your heart in two
To know she's been untrue
But, oh, what will you do
When she says to you
There's someone new
We're through, we're through
It's over, it's over, it's over

Roy Orbison, It's Over from the 1987 Black & White Night concert.

Next, a guy with an amazing voice. That last line always gives me chills. I would have loved to hear Roy Orbison sing it.

Gene Pitney, I'm Gonna Be Strong.

I'll have to put the third song on another post.

Tanpa Nama berkata...: Don Henley/The Eagles, Wasted Time.

So you live from day to day, and you dream about tomorrow, oh.
And the hours go by like minutes and the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something to make them go away
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind from wondrin' what
I left behind and from worrying 'bout this wasted time

Jeff M.; 1:48 PTG
George berkata...: Yes, I love Matt Monroe crooning "Softly As I Leave You." "Desperado" by the Eagles always brings a tear to Diane's eyes.; 2:01 PTG
Naomi Johnson berkata...: Barber's Adagio does it for me, too. And a song by Eddie Hinton called Hymn For Lonely Hearts.; 8:28 PTG
Ron Scheer berkata...: Just one? Garth Brooks' "Learning to Live Again is Killing Me". Ty Herndon's "Big Hopes."; 12:21 PG
Cap'n Bob berkata...: The Cap'n doesn't cry. Sad songs might include Old Shep and Unwanted Horses, if that's the right title.; 12:46 PG
Prashant C. Trikannad berkata...: Music doesn't make me cry. Instead, it uplifts my spirits, especially instrumental.; 1:06 PG
