Jeff Buckley - Grace

I don't know how to explain it, but the music nowadays has real trouble to display emotions. It's way too superficial and one must go back in the days to find a gem like Buckley's hymn.

One of the few artists who put all their feelings into a particular song. It makes me want to weep everytime and gives me chicken skin. And at the same time, it is so perfect and wonderful.

An other one would be

Dispatch - Passerby

Because of the lyrics.

I'm not crazy like my brother

but it's the way I choose

I don't hang around with a six pence

when I got everything to lose

would you bring me my money

and take from me all that I was worth

cause I wasn't worth nothing

and I wasn't yours

oh don't you be a passerby

oh won't you sit down

and stay a while

cause it's been too long since you been around

sold out men from across the way

he thought he heard what he heard you say

hey now man your watch it shines

for the bid of a moment yeilds 40 times

oh don't you be a passerby

oh won't you sit down

and stay while

don't you be a passerby

oh don't won't you sit down

and stay a while...

cause it's been too long since you been around

woman and little child

don't you be a passerby

I'm not crazy like my brother

but it's the way I choose

I don't hang around with a six pence

when I got everything to lose

would you bring me my money

and take from me all that I was worth

cause I wasn't worth nothing

and I wasn't yours

oh don't you be a passerby

oh won't you sit down

and stay a while

cause it's been too long since you been around

sold out men from across the way

he thought he heard what he heard you say

hey now man your watch it shines

for the bid of a moment yeilds 40 times

oh don't you be a passerby

oh won't you sit down

and stay while

don't you be a passerby

oh don't won't you sit down

and stay a while...

cause it's been too long since you been around

woman and little child

don't you be a passerby

I'm not crazy like my brother

Home by Depeche Mode

I'll Fall With Your Knife by Peter Murphy

They used mo make my cry during my goth days :P

I think the Coldplay's "Don't Panic", Modest Mouse's "Teeth Like God's Shoeshine", and the Manu Chao's "Mr. Bobby" are the saddest songs I've ever heard.

I think that the wail on "Invalid Litter Dept." by At the Drive-In is the only true rival to Bono's wail on "With or Without You".

I was surprised to see that two of mine have already been mentioned.

We had three songs played at our daughter's funeral, and when I hear them, they set me off every time.

East 17 - Stay Another Day

Eric Clapton - Tears In Heaven

REM - Everybody Hurts

Ooberman - "Shorley Wall" It's a really sad song about a girl who commits suicide - there's this spoken bit at the end by the female vocalist and you can actually hear her voice cracking.

Smiths - "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" gets me going a bit when I'm really p1ssed. :(

Some that get me that haven't already been mentioned...

Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? - Moby

Bedshaped - Keane

Adagio For Strings - Samuel Berber

On Your Own - The Verve

Wide Open Space - Mansun

Rabbit In Your Headlights - UNKLE ft Thom Yorke

Out Of Time - Blur

The music that always makes me cry is the slowed-down theme tune from 'Blackadder' played at the end of the fourth series, when Blackadder, Baldrick et al charged onto the battlefield and were mown down one by one, then they showed a field of poppies at the end.

I get a lump in my throat just thinking about it.
