my favorite collection just before bed!! this is my life, feeling like shit then forgetting all about it when I wake up only to repeat it all over again

Craig Armstrong - Balcony Scene (from Romeo and Juliet) <-- lovely simple tune
Craig Armstrong - This Love (from Cruel Intentions) <-- this is played when Seb dies This tune doesnt really make me feel too sad but it's still a beautiful piece.

I recommend everyone to get Craig Armstrongs albums, especially his limited piano works cd.

Just off the top of my head one whole cd i used to play at night when i wanted to cry was - Ben Harper and the innocent criminals, Live from Mars, disc two. Songs like Waiting for an angel, roses from my friends. It’s all acoustic so no crazy guitar leads to distract ya.

Also depends what kind of crying, angry crying maybe songs like - chop suey, system of a down, toxicity

I dunno here’s some that use to make me sad,

Down in a hole - Alice in chains
Would - Alice in chains
wish you were here - Pink floyd
comfortably numb - pink floyd
Hurt - Johnny Cash
Never tears us apart - Inxs
Straight to you - Nick Cave
Like a hurricane - Neil young
November Rain - Guns and roses
Joga - Bjork
5 years - Bjork
Tomorrow Wendy - Concrete Blonde
It’s too late - The streets
Heart of gold - Neil young
Old man - Neil Young
Noose - Perfect circle
Out of habit- Ani deFranco
Bliss - Tori Amos

The last two are New Zealand artists worth checking out

Little things - Trinity Roots
Remember - P money

Oh the list could go on but it’s actually kind of depressing trying to think of sad songs.

Peace Sensi.

Hey Truthbearer,

Man you just reminded me of one of the most depressing times of my life. With that track - Round here, Counting Crows. I used to listen to a few of the tracks on that album. I just dug it out. Man music brings back such full on memories. Glad I’ve moved on from that headspace. Thank god for change.

Peace Sensi.

THANK YOU!
I was wondering if I was going to be the one to post it, but you beat me to it.
And I'll have to agree for all of Sarah McLachlan's songs...Fallen and Time specifically.
Dunno if anyone's said it yet, but
Here Without You - Three Doors Down

Songs that make A Lost Soul cry:

My Immortal – Evanescence
Brothers – Michiru Oshima (this one gets me every friggin time)
Something I Can Never Have – Nine Inch Nails
Brick – Ben Folds Five (because I was in a similar situation and let me tell you… that drive home is the longest drive home ever. I can’t listen to this song anymore.)
Winter – Tori Amos

There’s also some country song that I can’t recall the name of… it’s about a soldier though and I cried when I heard it because all I could think of is my brother and everything we were feeling when he was in Iraq.

I don't know if this will make you sad but it sort of is grave yard music, at least thats what my dad says.

:bravo: TB, I got a kick out of that! I suppose it's a good thing not many "celebrities" stick around in Missoula, Montana.

-Amé

I'm glad you liked it...I have been reading these guys site for the past few days and most of their improv missions are simply brilliant. I would recommend that everyone with a few spare minutes in need of a laugh check some of them out...

I especially got a kick out of the "Meet Anton Chekov"... I just took Russian lit, so it was funny to me at least. And the bathroom servant at McDonalds.... yes, brilliant.

All of these are great...don't think any of them has made me cry, but they are great nonetheless. Everything would be the closest one of the 3 to drawing tears on me...it is a very emotional one

dude,
don't put quotes of somethin I didn't actually write.. . .

I didn't say Nirvana's version of Teen spirit...

Tori Amos' version.... .
have u ever heard it ?
it's crazy sad,

I know you didn't mean the nirvana version, but since I haven't heard the tori amos version, then I tweaked it a bit to reflect the one I actually have heard. I have to hear this tori amos version...wonder how radically can she change the mood of the song to something that might make me want to cry, or that will be terribly more emotinal

Fleetwood Mac - Gypsy

I cannot listen to this song without bringing a tear, ever since i read the story of it.

The story of it is here: http://inherownwords.com/gypsy.htm (near the bottom).

i will bring a new song that brings my tears awwww..... (the rest is already mentioned by other people)

Let it be - the beatles, (i played it on the piano on the funeral of my grandfather )
