Pretty much any song on John K. Samson's "Winter Wheat"
Goddamn Canadian bastard with his good lyrics...

Re: Tracks that make you cry

Re: Tracks that make you cry
This is cringey I know, but for me it's "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis.
I had a best friend when I was teenager. She was also an ex-girlfriend. We were inseparable, and tried really hard to have a normal friendship, but instead spent four years or so unhealthily breaking each other's hearts. I remember being very hungover on a Saturday, feeling tender from the previous night's rejections, and this came on some daytime TV show, fucking, The Generation Game or something, and I felt hopeless and just went.
EDIT to add: Possibly Blue Valentines and Ruby's Arms by Tom Waits. Both hit me in the same feels and remind me of the same experiences, but it's all long enough ago and both feel like different perspectives on the same relationship.

Kate Rusby - "My Young Man". As I'm the grandson of a miner who lost a leg in a work accident and my gran had to look after him for years. And because I'm a Yorkshireman and well... brass bands and s..t.
Cigarettes After Sex - "Cry". Because I've not always been a good husband.
Glasvegas "My Cheating Heart". Ditto.
No Doubt "Don't Speak" - which my ex had on for months before we finally broke up. And we're still best friends. 25 years since we split up and we still hang out. Luckily her and my wife get on really well.

Re: Tracks that make you cry
I don’t know if any songs make me properly sob, but Triple Dog Dare by Lucy Dacus tends to bring a tear to my eye towards the end.
I entirely agree with this. Super powerful having a crowd of 30k-ish people singing it when I saw them a couple of weeks ago.s_mcsleazy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 28, 2022 1:54 pmso i think i'm gonna take some shade for this one but i realised famous last words - my chemical romance doesn't make me cry but does bring a bit of a tear to my eye.

Re: Tracks that make you cry
Totally the same for me. I can't listen to any of the cat trilogy songs as they make me want to cry

I forgot how "Running Up That Hill" can make me cry.

Re: Tracks that make you cry
Not quite make me cry, but Burger Queen by placebo always gives me butterflies and I’m sure has on occasion brought me to tears. There was a time I couldn’t listen to that entire album for a couple of years because of the emotion and memories it held for me.
Same goes for The Same Deep Water as Me by the Cure. Beautiful.
And the thing they both have in common, the Fender Bass vi. That’s where my love and obsession with that instrument began, before I even knew where those tones were coming from.

Re: Tracks that make you cry
The last track that put genuine tears in my eyes was "Disappearing," by Low on "Hey What." A very simple song but the chorus sections are like choirs beaming in from deep space, just pure beauty. I can't think of anyone who does what that band does.

Placebo is another one for me, Drag Behind off the Meds album reminds me of a lot of teenage sadness.Russell1982 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 11:27 amNot quite make me cry, but Burger Queen by placebo always gives me butterflies and I’m sure has on occasion brought me to tears.

Re: Tracks that make you cry
Follow The Cops Back home does that same thing for me. But the whole Meds album is awesome, my second favourite after Without You I’m NothingX-Ray Spex wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 1:37 amPlacebo is another one for me, Drag Behind off the Meds album reminds me of a lot of teenage sadness.Russell1982 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 11:27 amNot quite make me cry, but Burger Queen by placebo always gives me butterflies and I’m sure has on occasion brought me to tears.
