What are a few of the songs that often move you to tears/make you generally sadf?
Sorry, my song just popped up, thought it would make an interesting topic ^_^

One of the worst ones for me is 'Now We Are Free' from Gladiator. Hell, I usually am crying my eyes out by the end of it anyways. Sux!

Tallulah by... umm... hmm. Ah hael, I forgot who it was by. Blind Guardian? o_O phooey. I have to find that mp3 again, lost it in the format :\ Also a sadf song!

Not sad, but more depressing. Either Strip Her Down or Ugly, both by Cold.

Space Oddity by David Bowie

Uh...lemme think...

A song by Boa, I forgot the title but something along the lines of the lyrcis going 'You think that drinking is better then a woman'

Makes me sad...I get depressed by alot of things. Mainly movies, not many songs.

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence




Time was never on my side.
So on I wait my whole lifetime.

Ben Folds Five, "Mess". The way I used to think of myself is frickin' spot on in the song.
Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

This song makes me cry because I lived it... aside from the obvious differences between Mary and I

Mary by Oingo Boingo


Oh Mary wasn't happy with the life that she led
She was a simple girl without much to say
So one day she just upped and left her dreary home
And she left all her friends behind to wander all alone
And at first she was afraid, she was so far away
From her home but slowly she got to like it anyway
Oh Mary won't you please come...

Well in time she found that
The mountain that she had been taught
Her whole life, that she must avoid
And though at first it hurt, and no one could comfort her
She finally came to appreciate it
And she like it, she like it - oh wasn't she surprised
And though still alone, she grew so much inside
Oh Mary won't you please come...

And after a time, she became so sublime
She could look in peoples eyes and read their minds
Though her hands would sometimes bleed and occasionally
She would long for her past and the memories they bring
She decided to return to her old home town
And her heart was burning with all the things she found
Oh Mary won't you please come...

So, Mary came back and at first no one recognized her face
And her friends were all a little bit afraid
When they heard what she had to say
They all slowly backed away
And her family took her aside and put their arms around her
They said Mary won't you please come back to us now
There is still time to repent for all your sins
And Mary started to cry when she realized
That she'd never come home again in her life

Oh Mary won't you please come
Mary won't you please come home...

Eric Clapton: Tears In Heaven (just...bloody sad.)

Rufus Wainright: Hallejulah (*sigh*)

Dust In the Wind (any version...song makes you want to do yourself a wounding)

Patty Loveless: How Can I Help You (Say Goodbye)(story in it is sad)

Joshua Kadison: Jesse (Ever broke up with someone unhealthy for you who later wanted to get back together?)

Soul Asylum: We 3 (this one hits me particularly hard sometimes)

Bob Dylan: Abandoned Love (breaking up from the guy's POV)

Bob Dylan: Knockin on Heaven's Door (for when you've fought the long fight and int he end are tired of it.)

FF7 Soundtrack: Aeris' Theme (Orchestrated or straight from the game, this music always gets me choked up...poor Aeris)

Statler Brothers (I think): Flowers on the Wall (Sounds upbeat. Now listen to the Lyrics)

ALso Holes in the floor Of heaven is a good one and I'm Moving on by Rascal Flat.

Bloodsage: I think there is something wrong with anyone who is not choked up over Taps. I cant' hear it without almost breaking down..
Also there is a new song by Montgomery Gentry(sp) Dedicated to those who have served that had me on the edge. Can't remember the name though. Something like "Didn't we do enough"

Butterfly Kisses

There's two things I know for sure.
She was sent here from heaven, and she’s daddy’s little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all the joy in my life, But most of all...
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony daddy, it’s my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today.
She’s looking like her momma a little more every day.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings in a great big world. But I remember...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you daddy, but if you don’t mind,
I’m only going to kiss you on cheek this time."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

All the precise time.
Like the wind, the years go by.
Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly.

She’ll change her name today.
She’ll make a promise, and I’ll give her away.
Standing in the bride room just staring at her.
She asked me what I’m thinking, and I said, "I’m not sure,
I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over... and gave me...

Butterfly kisses, with her mama there.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk me down the aisle daddy, it’s just about time."
"Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?" "Daddy don’t cry."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses.
I couldn’t ask God for more, man, this is what love is.
I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember.
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...

*mutters* can't even read it without getting misty.

So long ago I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
They said she died easy of a broken-heart disease
I listen through the cemetary trees

I see the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung round this place

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like independence day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed

I seen the sun up ahead at the county line bridge
Saying all there's good and nothing else is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothing left
She hit the end--it's just her window ledge

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

This place is old
It feels just like a beat-up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn

It smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same

But somewhere here inbetween the city walls of dying dreams
I think her death it must be killing me

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight




Time was never on my side.
So on I wait my whole lifetime.
