Most powerful/emotional song you've ever heard...

moam	Date: February 19, 2007 @ 3:36 PM So I came across KoRn's first CD they ever did...listened to it since I lost it long ago and I just recently found it. I love that CD...but then the song "Daddy" comes on... Seriously, the ending of it nearly made me cry. Even if you're not a huge "Nu-Metal" fan or whatever people classify KoRn as, I really fucking suggest that song. It is the most powerful song I have ever heard. Anyways, what other songs make you nearly CRY? I want to hear this...

Snoogans775	Date: February 19, 2007 @ 4:43 PM I saw Umphrie's McGee last night, that made me cry. I don't remember which particular song it was, but one of the improvisations was really emotional.
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: February 19, 2007 @ 8:17 PM Harry Nilsson - 'Without You' The Smiths - 'Asleep' both of which I find uplifting listens because no matter how depressed or down I'm feeling, I can't compare to this stuff !!!

DeadraveN	Date: February 20, 2007 @ 12:45 PM "you said" -Mimic of a Mind... hits hard everytime I hear it...
EvalLin	Date: February 20, 2007 @ 12:51 PM Prelude #15 "Raindrops" by Frédéric Chopin. But if it has to be a song, Many Rivers to Cross by Jimmy Cliff.
zedsalt	Date: February 20, 2007 @ 3:40 PM For me, the most devastatingly depressing song I've ever heard would have to be either "Everybody Hurts" by REM or "Sunshine Day" by the Brady Bunch.
moam	Date: February 20, 2007 @ 3:44 PM '"you said" -Mimic of a Mind... hits hard everytime I hear it...' Wow thanks raven!
kyodylee	Date: February 20, 2007 @ 4:59 PM Well, there's several I could choose from including George Harrison's "Something" or John Lennon's "Imagine" ... ... but ultimately I'd have to choose The Star Spangled Banner"

Date: February 21, 2007 @ 12:00 AM The Smiths 'Asleep' (Morrissey/Marr) "Sing me to sleep, Sing me to sleep Im tired and i, I want to go to bed Sing me to sleep, Sing me to sleep And then leave me alone Dont try to wake me in the morning cause I will be gone, Dont feel bad for me, I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go Sing me to sleep, Sing me to sleep I dont want to wake up, On my own anymore, Sing to me, Sing to me I dont want to wake up, On my own anymore Dont feel bad for me, I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I really want to go There is another world There is a better world Well, there must be (x4) Well ... Bye bye, Bye bye, BYE ........... This song is so bloody sad and depressing that I love it and love my life after hearing it!

celtaidd	Date: March 6, 2007 @ 6:53 PM Not wishing to steal this subject post, but in the Welsh Press there was mention of a lost recording of Hendrix's version of "Hen Wlad Fy'n Hadau", turned out to be a hoax,who'd have thought small world innit?

shadowself	Date: March 7, 2007 @ 9:52 AM On 19th Feb 2012, shadowself said: Suzanne Vega - The Queen and the Soldier I actually started learning this tune yesterday, and found it very difficult to sing because of the emotion it stirs in me. I think it's because the queen in the song reminds me of someone.

zedsalt	Date: March 7, 2007 @ 10:33 AM This is driving me nuts; I know the songwriter's name, but for the life of me, I can't think of it. Michelle Shocked did an accapella version of this song on ACL, chokes me up every time... "My name is Penny Evans, and I just turned twenty-one a young widow of the war that's being fought in Vietnam and I have two infant daughters; I thank God I have no sons 'cause they say the war is over, but I fear it's just begun..."

shadowself	Date: March 7, 2007 @ 11:54 PM Must learn Lips Like Sugar. I love that tune.
theblacklodge	Date: March 8, 2007 @ 8:36 AM Father, Son: Peter Gabriel. The intro/ending of Supper's ready: Genesis (very much in spite of its title )
kingo	Date: March 8, 2007 @ 2:00 PM Wow, Shadowself, thanks for that link to the song zed was talking about. And thanks for talking about it, zed. Never heard it before; really brilliant. For my own addition to this thread, off the top of my head, "Go Down Easy" by Dan Fogelberg is a hell of a good and emotional song.
allflowerz	Date: March 15, 2007 @ 3:31 PM Eric Clapton- tears in heaven
hate9wicket	Date: March 15, 2007 @ 8:08 PM I concur, Thank you Clarke..which is appropriate because my choice was written by Steve Goodman....City of New Orleans. there are others. umnn.. One Tree Hill gets me hard, San Jacinto by Mr. Gabriel, Needle in the Hay by Elliot Smith.
hate9wicket	Date: March 15, 2007 @ 9:00 PM upon further reflection, it occurs to me that should read hits rather than gets (scurries away and hides under a rock) preview
mudshadow	Date: March 16, 2007 @ 12:01 PM for full on emotional impact nothing can top Floyd or old Sabbath for me.
ShadowMom	Date: March 16, 2007 @ 12:10 PM I'm gonna have to monitor these threads a little more carefully, I Don't trip over your Freudian slip now, hate9!!
gtr1960	Date: March 16, 2007 @ 2:54 PM Most of you will not know this one...but.... Lamplight Symphony by Kansas. If you like just pop or metal you probably wouldn't like it but if you like progressive stuff..youll love it. It's an amazing song, and the lyrics are about a lonely old man out in the country, in a cabin looking at his wifes grave when her ghost appears. She tells him it's ok it won't be much longer before there together again.
