Although Anything by Muse has me in tears straight away, it sounds like someone drowning a cat, and that always makes me sad.

A manly man wouldn't be worried about "getting emotional".
What do I know though, I'm a "the glass is nearly empty" kind of guy.

I'm cynical and full of hate, so it's hard to make me cry with music, but this came close...
Joanna Newsom - Monkey and Bear (I warn you that if you want to hear this song, it's like 10+ minutes 9:28 long).

stan by eminem, although at the time i was really drunk so maybe that swayed my emotions towards sadness. still a very depressing song though.
to spin or not to spin, that is the question.

Human by The Killers gets me teary eyed every time and strangely enough The Unforgiven by Metallica.
Don't Cry For Me Argentina and a few choice ballads from Evita will have me balling my eyes out too...

I hear these veery often, but then I'm an imaginative person and I like to dream. So as long as I can see myself relating or wanting to relate to lyrics, I can find such song touching.

These can bring a tear to my eye.
Grow old with me: John Lennon (was recorded a week before his death)
Hurt: Johnny Cash (A Nine Inch Nails cover that was recorded roughly 5 months before his death, the solemn awareness of this is evident in the song)
The next one has actually broken me down.

Cant say that I have... however, Sat in a bar with a friend of mine I put A7X - A Little Peice of Heaven on the jukebox.
half way through the song she bursts into tears and starts saying how the lyrics are so true and describe her life perfectly.
She wasnt very amused when I pointed out the song is about Murder, Necrophillia, Genocide and Zombie weddings.
I however couldnt stop laughing.

They're good at Tributes huh? Saw them in '05, Managed to catch all of their cover of Walk by Pantera on my camera. Always makes me smile

Haha indeed it was, in Dallas, TX. Yes, it was absolutely brilliant. A giant 60x80foot picture of the rev. You could tell he was about burst into tears. And then they had everyone light up their lighters, biggest memorial service I've ever seen. It was crazy the amount of people there.

Oh man, I should have liked to have gone.
Saw Stone Sour back in July, couple of weeks after Paul Grey died. It was the first time they had played Bother since his death and Corey Taylor (Whom I consider a GOD amongst men) Broke down on stage.
in fact....
Watch that, you'll get the idea.
