I'm about to reveal myself as the country fan that I am...I really like these songs even though they make me cry.
"Alyssa lies" by Jason Michael Carroll and "The Little Girl" John Micheal Montgomery can both be heard on youtube. But you will cry.
Also the star spangled banner...lol...I hate to sound too patriotic, but I get weepy at baseball games when I hear that one.
What songs have made you cry?
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Not because of the song itself, but because of an association with the song.
The Little Drummer Boy.
Every damn time. Not entirely sure why.
"If There Is A Chance" - The Cardigans. Reminds me of hopes I had for a loss. For those moments where you pray "Please, please..."
"The Championship" - The Polyphonic Spree. These are optimistic tears. :)

HEY! haven't seen you in a while...it's good to have you back!
Re: Songs....
"Dust In the Wind" by Kansas
The lyrics and the music are moving enough as it is, but since I picked that one for my mom's funeral, it tears me the f up every time now.
"Imagine" by John Lennon
just....speaks for itself.
I love all Led Zep, but on a good (emotional) day, 'Thank You' can make me cry. Especially if I try to sing along.
This Woman's Work by Kate Bush. It gets me every time.
That's the only one I can think of right now, but I know there are others
If anyone here likes Coldplay you should listen to their song Kingdom Come It is so beautiful!
Thanks WLB!! This is my new favorite song. It made it straight onto the ipod, which is saying something.
Natasha Dance by Chris De Burgh can do it to me after enough wine!
And with the light I wake up in the morning,
And she has gone, it must have been a dream,
And then I see the roses on my pillow,
And now I know that she will come again;
There is one song that always get to me. Le vieux en bas du fleuve, by Gaston Mandeville, a Québec, which is a relatively older song. It's a very simple song that remind us of our attachment to the Earth. It's about this old man who is seeing his lands taken away from him. He remembers about his life way back when it was "simpler", when his kids were younger, when he was younger as well. We don't really who this old man is, but you know that type of man. He's grown old, all he has now are souvenirs which are fading as he, well, passing away. The old man dies alone, and they basically find him a few days later.
Yes. Very depressing song. But the whole message is universal. In the song, you know the lands are probably being taken away so that businesspeople can build malls and big building, parking spaces, what have you. The old man in the song is basically the memory of this connection that we had with our planet that is just fading away as we just get more "modernized". This song always get tears to my eyes.
Stevie Wonder: Ordinary Pain, Lately, Never Dreamed You'd Leave In Summer
Ella Fitzgerald -Good Morning Heartache, How About Me, Get Out of Town
Kissing a Fool - by George Michael or Michael Bublé
You Don't Know Me
Easy For Your To Say
and most of all...
Tears in Heaven
It was a song I came to know around when I was 8 when my kitty died. Makes me tear up just *thinking* about the song.

I remember them using that version in an episode of Scrubs a few seasons ago... and I remember having a few tears too
songs that make me cry?
one that comes up is the interlude by paul mc cartney "interlude lamment " and the 9th. new world symphony by dvorak.
:D
If it wasn't mentioned, "Imagine" by john lennon. If it was, it bears repeating

this wrecks me...
Damn Kannas, that wrenches me too. My ex wife loved the Cure - it took me over a year before I could even stand to listen to them again. This song brings up so much regret and exsupposition that words fail me.
The Cure was all I listened to my junior and senior year of high school . . . ahhh, so much angst!
Romeo and Juliet by the Dire Straits. Especially the version sung by this amazing Key West artist Raven Cooper.
