EphemeralEternity: Songs that have actually made you cry?

rockarollacola 06.11.22	More than I'd like to admit
BAT 06.11.22	get drunk & listen to 'daniel johnston - 1990'
BlushfulHippocrene 06.11.22	Have never cried to a song, am a poser. Lovely list idea.
BlushfulHippocrene 06.11.22	No Lil Peep? Something you found trawling through his mum's basement, perhaps.
Squiggly 06.11.22	More than once listening to The Antlers- Hospice in the past year A recent one was Antony & the Johnsons- Hope there’s someone
EphemeralEternity 06.11.22	Praying to the sky has a nice sombre instrumental but "then we fucked, then she sucked me off twice" kills it a bit. If she had just sucked him off the one time I'd understand, but twice makes it a bit silly
rufinthefury 06.11.22	real ones are able to cry for every song on Home Like Noplace
zakalwe 06.11.22	Once in 1994. After Kurt killed himself and unplugged was on the tele. Where did you sleep last night brought the curtain down and the curtain was brought down. I blubbed.
rockarollacola 06.11.22	I'm a total bitch when it comes to music, sad songs ALWAYS get to me.
keaton_86 06.11.22	I don't think I've ever cried to a song but after I found out one of my (ex) best friends raped his girlfriend while she was sleeping I listened to slipknot's first album for the first time while I was running and started screaming hysterically. That was a pretty fucked up day.
EphemeralEternity 06.11.22	Damn that's heavy in a different sense I hope he got what he deserved. My cousins ex boyfriend turned out to be abusive and he kidnapped her dog (luckily she got it back unharmed) but I had hung out with him and thought he was a great guy. I was pretty ashamed of my inability to judge their character but that's people for you.
DoofDoof 06.11.22	‘Kid Codeine’ by The Delines nearly got me once this year, that battle against unresolved anger…then you have the even sadder ‘All Along the Ride’ on the same album. Their song writer Willy Vlautin is a novelist and his books are open invitations to weep, oft labelled ‘misery porn’ - they’re great, lump in throat time. Read his latest this year, the end of that also hit the spot. Similar topic to the song, unresolved shit from your past leading to angry episodes and repetitive behaviour patterns. Very cool book.
Mythodea 06.11.22	https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=1039833&listid=192141 I made a similar list a few years back, Ephemeral, perhaps you'd like to take a look. The first 6 songs are mine.
keaton_86 06.11.22	Yeah I knew him for about 15 years. It turns out, if you do MDMA, ket, weed and god knows what else 2 times a week for about 7 years straight, it cooks your brain. After the rape incident he basically had a psychotic dissociative breakdown and tried to kill himself several times. Last year was not fun.
Pangea 06.11.22	vali made me cry too hi-five
Emim 06.11.22	Memento Mori - Architects First heard it a couple days after my cousin committed suicide.
AlexKzillion 06.11.22	7 is so true lmao "Fiction" by Avenged Sevenfold used to get me back in the day... with the Rev eulogizing himself after literally dying. On a similar note... I teared up first time I jammed Disasterpiece after Joey Jordison's death. Obviously not a tearjerker but of all the musician deaths of the last n years his hit me especially hard after growing up wanting to be him. I cry maybe once every couple years though like idk even when I'm extremely extremely sad I can't cry let alone to music shit just doesn't work
Colton 06.11.22	when I first heard Stepdad by Eminem I laughed so hard I was crying a bit
BaselineOOO 06.11.22	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCYSerZR7Os Track 5. Best song ever made in Japan, Macaroom will never get this close to perfection. The lyrics get to me: "A tragedy is just a fleeting mirage in history / The sinking city knows this very well"...
EphemeralEternity 06.12.22	Some interesting picks here thank you all for sharing Remember always choose to cry with laughter not cry with.. cryter
Shemson 06.12.22	AlexK - same on Fiction, that was so surreal to hear after knowing Rev wrote that song, titled it Dead and basically went and died straight after I don’t really get moved to tears purely by songs but there are songs/albums I relate to events in my life like Grouper-Dead Deer album, Dream Theater-Space Dye Vest
Ectier 06.12.22	Diaken Amenra, "when i keep my eyes closed im in your arms again, When I open my eyes, im alone again". Amenra is a very emotion fuelled band but Diaken hits hard. Dissociation, The Dillinger escape Plan- "Finding a way to die alone" When you are struggling and suicidal....yeah. A flood of light - Rolo tomassi - tears of joy,love, sadness and general feelings overload from a complicated relationship of with a girl I love. Im an emotional guy so it doesnt necessarily take much for me
Egarran 06.12.22	When I eventually read the lyrics along to Wings For Marie by Tool I was very close.
Storm In A Teacup 06.12.22	Hmm. I guess the only one in the last couple years would be Jeezy - “Oh Lord” feat Tamika Mallory. Probably the song that I’ve cried the most listening to.
SuzyC 06.12.22	More than a few Violet Cold songs pierce me deeply.
ArsMoriendi 06.12.22	First song to ever make me cry was "Brother" by Alice in Chains, but it doesn't have that affect on me anymore But it never fails to make me cry when I listen too closely to the lyrics of "John the Fisherman" by Primus, specifically the part where he dies at sea doing what he loves.
Egarran 06.12.22	Primus is a very sentimental band
ArsMoriendi 06.12.22	I'm pretty sure you're being sarcastic, but certain songs like "John the Fisherman" and "Mrs. Blaileen" and hell even "Bob" are depressing and as fuck
WeepingBanana 06.12.22	A bunch of Kinks songs
Divaman 06.12.22	Aimee Mann's "King of the Jailhouse".
bnelso55 06.13.22	Gorecki's Symphony of Sorrowful Songs, the first movement in particular, has hit me really hard on a couple occasions
ConcubinaryCode 06.13.22	17 is powerful man
alamo 06.13.22	ethel cain - hard times
alamo 06.13.22	love 15 so much have u heard this live version of whitewash https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8akmP6Sjv2o
Conmaniac 06.13.22	3 is goated… As my breath kisses the window The big fire is holding My guts scream out my sorrow Is it today I'm dying?
Lucman 06.13.22	40 Watt Sun - Perfect Light. The whole damn album.
Ectier 06.14.22	Also Necrologue by Solstafir
RabbitInTheGround 06.14.22	This Must Be The Place by Talking Heads. makes you think of home in the purest sense, it's a happy/sad song. I want this song played at my funeral
EphemeralEternity 06.14.22	I'll check out the mentioned tracks that I haven't heard, ofc this sort of thing is personal and linked to life events so whether they'll have a similar effect for me I can't say
Sinternet 06.14.22	think glosoli is my pick for sigur ros, especially with the video too
Lord(e)Po)))ts 06.14.22	Really? Sigur Ros? Could you cry any more basic?
fogza 06.14.22	It's an odd pick but the War on Drugs' Clean living makes me very emotional.
EphemeralEternity 06.14.22	Pots you've first got to tell us what music has made you blubber before slinging shit
Ectier 06.14.22	Good luck Ephemeral hope it doesnt make you sad
Sinternet 06.14.22	there's a lot actually now that i think about it where the video and the music together ruin me: keaton henson - you don't know how lucky you are arcade fire - afterlife are the two aside from glosoli which tend to get me
EphemeralEternity 06.14.22	I had a dissociative disorder that robbed my emotions for a few years where I wasn’t able to cry at all so now I don’t take it for granted The poet laureate of art rock band three days grace once wrote a song about how he would rather feel pain than nothing at all and I think I agree
Lord(e)Po)))ts 06.14.22	It’s chumbawumba for me dawg
Relinquished 06.14.22	damn 16 overlooked pick
fogza 06.14.22	I get knocked down, but I get up again!
EphemeralEternity 06.14.22	I'd be surprised if their concerts aren't just them playing tubthumping 12 times and again for an encore
Ectier 06.14.22	Ive cried to a Thou song before: Elimination Rhetoric and Unfortunate timesp
RunOfTheMill 06.14.22	lol don't even need to name 14
YoYoMancuso 06.14.22	hmm probably michael jackson - thriller
YoYoMancuso 06.14.22	nah but fr most recent one for me was Lizzy McAlpine - Nobody Likes A Secret
fogza 06.14.22	"I'd be surprised if their concerts aren't just them playing tubthumping 12 times and again for an encore" i doubt that actually
Lord(e)Po)))ts 06.14.22	Angel by shaggy also really does it for Me
fogza 06.14.22	What about Angel by Robbie Williams?
Lord(e)Po)))ts 06.14.22	No But photograph by nickelback for sure
fogza 06.14.22	or photograph by ed sheeran it is very poignant
someone 06.14.22	Let the Bodies Hit the Floor cause my classmate hit me with a book for playing it
pizzamachine 06.14.22	BEEATEEN Y 4
EphemeralEternity 06.14.22	Photograph turns me into a sobbing mess, as soon as Chad sings 'what the hell is on Joey's head?' I lose it I forgot to mention the bridge on down with the sickness gets me everytime too
anode 06.14.22	Wow Padmasana also made me cry. Crazy how a purely instrumental song can evoke so much emotion. The other two that come to mind are heart and soul by joy division and the big gloom by have a nice life
Clumseee 06.14.22	The Weakerthans - Virtue The Cat Explains Her Departure Saddest song I've ever heard
anode 06.14.22	God damnit clumsee…I miss my cat
cylinder 06.15.22	i feel you on 23 for sure
JayEnder 06.15.22	Pianos Become the Teeth - I'll Get By Shit kills me every time.
CygnusX1 06.15.22	Oh man, love me some Vali. I Skumringstimen on a rainy night...
MyMentality 06.15.22	I don't necessarily cry at sad songs, more at songs that overwhelm me with emotion. No Other One by Weezer genuinely hit so hard that it reduced me to tears, can't explain it. Also Entombed by Deftones. Numb by Marina of all songs too, reaches some insane heights!
DDDeftoneDDD 06.15.22	This was done before, never cried ever since.
Dylan620 06.15.22	Peregrine - "The Awful Things" The War on Drugs - "In Reverse" Radiohead - "No Surprises" Metallica - "Fade to Black"
DDDeftoneDDD 06.15.22	The Contortionist - Return to the Earth, from Clairvoyant. Check and weep: https://youtu.be/yAfAxmhWmcQ
Storm In A Teacup 06.15.22	"Really? Sigur Ros? Could you cry any more basic?" I'm having trouble finding the "like" button for this comment so I just reported it instead because
Storm In A Teacup 06.15.22	I cry at television. I don't think actual music can make me cry.
twlight 06.15.22	lonley weekend and golden hour by Kacey Musgraves live, it was Roger Waters playing Pink Floyd tunes
twlight 06.15.22	war on drugs can definitely make tears run... amazing band also, forth of july by Sujian Stevens... thats a tear jerker
twlight 06.15.22	cool list by the way
DDDeftoneDDD 06.15.22	Storm in A Tearcup
IsisScript80 06.15.22	The third "boom" in the Vengaboys' 'Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!' just does something to me... gets me every time.
Egarran 06.15.22	Classic tearjerker that one
mindleviticus 06.15.22	Buckethead - I Love My Parents Golden Pawn - Rolie Polie Spiritualized - Broken Heart Alice in Chains - Nutshell & Frogs Paddy McAloon - I Trawl the megahertz some others I can't think of right now
gryndstone 06.16.22	93 Ave Blues by Swans made me cry out of fear
po0ty 06.16.22	Giles Corey Swans - Helpless Child m83 - Wait Anna von Hausswolf - Vanishing of Electra Circa Survive - I'll Find a Way
Shamzus 06.16.22	Came here to say Virtute the Cat but it's been mentioned so... I'll go with the most recent one in All Get Out - AA Almanac. If that haunting bridge doesn't get to me first, the "damn it you were raised well" in the last verse always manages to catch me off guard
Krpa 06.16.22	Crippled Black Phoenix - The Invisible Past Wolverine - Sleepy Town Lunatic Soul - A Thousand Shards of Heaven Anathema - Angels Walk Among Us REM - Everybody Hurts Swallow the Sun - This House Has No Home Sylvan - Posthumous Silence The New Age - Upstairs The Pineapple Thief - That Shore ...
HooperD87 06.17.22	Waltz #2 by Elliott Smith. After my wife and I had a miscarriage, the "I'm never gonna know you now, but I'm gonna love you anyhow" line really got me blubbering.
protokute 06.17.22	First time listening to 3, and yes it's deep Bread - Everything I Own (this song has spoken a lot with me after the passing of my father last year) Galaxie 500 - Tell Me The Byrds - Goin Back The Brian Jonestown - Miss June 75 Kate Bush - Love and Anger Washed Out - Amor Fati The Beach Boys - That's Not Me The Flying Burrito Brothers - Hot Burrito #1 Badfinger - I'll Be The One Alice In Chains - No Excuses Panda Bear - Bros Animal Collective - What Would I Want? Sky The Carpenters - Goodbye To Love
deathofasalesman 06.17.22	Turnover - Like Slow Disappearing I closed my eyes and suddenly we were... attached and I was not myself when I opened up my eyes... again That line has got me more than once. I miss having someone that close
aightnow 06.17.22	Touche Amore - New Halloween My mom has dementia and watching what has happened to her the past 5-6 years has been tough. I feel i can relate with Jeremy's story even tho my mom isn't gone.
bigguytoo9 06.17.22	Kevin Gilbert - Song For A Dead Friend (might be the saddest song ever)
beefshoes 06.17.22	Aightnow TA is one of my favorite bands, but I can't listen to Four Stages. It puts me in such a horrible headspace. Too many tears.
naughtcturnal 06.17.22	April Wine - I’m On Fire for you Baby I have no fucking clue why. Song makes me wish I was madly in love
DocSportello 06.18.22	Simulation Swarm almost every time
ToSmokMuzyki 06.18.22	you suffer - napalm death, gets me every time
FR33L0RD 06.19.22	« What a Wonderful World », Louis Armstrong, singer, jazz legend. works for me, nearly everytime.
rellik009 07.21.22	the main theme songs for princess mononoke and nausicaa
Egarran 07.21.22	Kishi Bashi - Omoiyari track 3-6 have been known to give me a lump in my throat. "I just want to be able to sing to her again." Waaaah.
Minortimbo12 08.13.22	Oh Lord - NF
syco722 08.13.22	Underlands by Andrew Bird absolutely destroyed me the first time I heard it. Was driving a long distance, it came on my Release Radar and caught me completely off guard.
Minortimbo12 08.13.22	Already Home - Thousand Foot Krutch Honestly, just the instrumentals would have done it for me on that day
syco722 08.13.22	Okay I went back to listen and realized it was actually Eight by Andrew Bird that made me tear up. The violin solo is what did me in. But Underlands is sick too.
Dedes 10.20.22	Wildly late to this list but if ever song in recent memory fucking rammed me it would Counterparts-Whispers of Your Death. Song is about Brendan Murphy's (vocalist) cat growing weak from cancer and him already imagining the state of life in which Kuma, the boy who was the only thing keeping his depression grounded, dies. Kuma would die 3 days later. As a lot of my friends family pass from cancer (close friends mom, soon another close friends father) and I grow closer to a girl with severe CKD (only has 1 kidney already due to kidney failure) the gravity of death and what it marks on other people has become a lot more real to me.
Kusangii 10.20.22	Dark tranquillity - the minds eye
JerseyJimmy 03.17.23	I am also very late to this, but for me it's "I'll Get By" by Pianos Become the Teeth. my grandfather had succumbed to covid, and it was the first song that happened to come on after I learned he'd died.
MoM 03.17.23	“The Parts” “Hot One” and “The Maze” by Manchester Orchestra The first two for my wife, the last for our kids “Reckless Love” by Cory Asbury Because of my wife; she showed it to me because it made her think of me (i fucking dropped to the floor) And a bunch of others, usually because they make me think of my wife or our kids, and i fucking love them more than anything.
