Posted February 20, 201114 yr Simple question, are there any songs out there that reduce you to tears or cause some sort of emotional response in you? Is it due to the production, the meaning or the way it is sung? Lets discuss. For me: Alanis Morissette - Simple Together qm2KyjhjTnk Jennifer Lopez - Alive pS6ujqskFuE There are more though :heehee:
February 20, 201114 yr The ones that make me most emotional are ones I love for a personal reason. That's Evanescence - My Immortal and Daniel Bedingfield - If You're Not The One mainly, but some Leona songs have been known to do it and Adele - Someone Like You makes me very soppy. OH and Make You Feel My Love had that effect very recently. It's nearly always to do with the lyrics as well, although obviously a good voice and strong production can help make a song feel so much better when you hear it. Certainly all of the songs above a little epic in that way.
February 20, 201114 yr sounds really stupid but viva forever by the spice girls makes me really sad. but more sad in that it just reminds me of how amazing being a kid was and makes me wish i could just do it all over again.
February 20, 201114 yr Leona Lewis - Run and Adele - Someone Like You, MYFML used to but I've gotten used to it now.
February 20, 201114 yr Of course there are songs that get to me emotionally, not that I burst down in tears when I hear one of these, but I do get emotional. There are not alot of songs that really get to me. The song needs to have it all... voice, meaning, lyrics, overall feeling.. etc. Emmylou Harris - Sweet Old World (= about someone who killed suicide) Emmylou Harris - A Love That Will Never Grow Old (lyrics = awesomeness) Lucinda Williams - Lake Charles (= about a fatal car crash, so sweet and tender..) Ryan Adams - Goodnight Hollywood Blvd (the vibe in this song is so sad) Kanye West - Bad News Bad News looks kinda odd to me when you put it next to the others, but that instrumental bit is so emotional. OK that were 5.. a little too much maybe.
February 20, 201114 yr Oh dear Adele - Someone Like You - only because I can relate to it at the moment Tori Amos - Winter Antony and the Johnsones - Hope There's Someone The National - Runaway Embrace - That's All Changed Forever
February 20, 201114 yr Th Flood - Cheryl Cole - Relates to an experience I had which was very hurtful and effected me greatly The Writer - Ellie Goulding - Also relates to the above experience. Also I can feel her desperation Lights - Ellie Goulding - Exactly how I felt at one on point Human - Ellie Goulding - How I feel sometimes Home - Ellie Goulding - He's got some really sad lyrics Believe Me - Ellie Goulding - The same situation as The Flood and The Writer Candle In The Wind(Orignal) - Elton John - Really sad for obvious reasons. The 97 one was not as well done though. Notice - Diana Vickers - Relates to the same situation as The Flood,The Writer, and Believe Me Once - Diana Vickers - Relates to a situation I was once in All of the above make me very emotional if I am in the right mood. :(
February 20, 201114 yr Emmylou Harris - Sweet Old World (= about someone who killed suicide) Emmylou Harris - A Love That Will Never Grow Old (lyrics = awesomeness) I love her! Glad someone else likes her too! Wrecking Ball is my favourite album ever.
February 20, 201114 yr Jordin Sparks - The Cure kWQYmggBgU8 Lady GaGa - Second Time Around Cf10W4KUQJQ :heart:
February 20, 201114 yr Majandra Delfino - North Uh Huh Her - Covered PJ Harvey, plent of but a few the most: The Piano + Sweeter Than Anyting + One Line Sarah McLachlan - Plenty Sarah McLachlan - Song For A Winter's Night Sarah McLachlan - I Love You Adele - Someone Like You Cat Power - Maybe Not Marin And The Diamonds - Obsessions Shiny Toy Guns - Don't Cry Out CHER - Classified 1A CHER - Believe CHER - I saw a man and he danced with his wife Howling Bells - A Ballad for the bleeding hearts Kelis - Caught out there The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out Oasis - Stop Crying Your Heart Out Many more, woah.
February 20, 201114 yr I love her! Glad someone else likes her too! Wrecking Ball is my favourite album ever. Mine too! OMG!
February 20, 201114 yr This sounds like a bit of a pathetic one, but it's Puff Daddy & Faith Evans's 'I'll Be Missing You' which I played for ages after my cat died. :lol::(
February 20, 201114 yr As cheesy as it sounds :lol: songs from Titanic My Heart Will Go On // Hymn To The Sea // Rose Carrie Underwood - Temporary Home :cry: video makes it more emotional. Christina Aguilera - Lift Me Up Kelly Clarkson - Because Of You Bette Midler - Wind Beneath My Wings Edited February 20, 201114 yr by WillR0713
February 20, 201114 yr Mine too! OMG! Although I'm not very religious, All My Tears is probably the ultimate highlight of the album... If there's one because it's so solid. The way she sings it is just hauntingly beautiful Julie Miller is genious just like Harris. aLMYujsKoG4
February 20, 201114 yr Coldplay- Fix You :cry: :cry: :cry: Sigur Ros- Hoppipolla :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Johnny Cash- Hurt :cry: :cry: Coldplay- The Scientist :cry: :cry: all seriously goosebump inducing records :wub: :wub: and this sounds pathetic- but the song, Mandy as it brings back memories of when I was very young and had a babysitter, and it somehow reminded me of her at the time and I got quite emotional :snif: :blush:
February 20, 201114 yr Adele Someone like you :wub: Jackson 5 I'll be there (reminds me of an ex) Sinead O Connor Nothing Compares to you :( Coldplay Lost :o
February 20, 201114 yr Majandra Delfino - North Uh Huh Her - Covered PJ Harvey, plent of but a few the most: The Piano + Sweeter Than Anyting + One Line Sarah McLachlan - Plenty Sarah McLachlan - Song For A Winter's Night Sarah McLachlan - I Love You Adele - Someone Like You Cat Power - Maybe Not Marin And The Diamonds - Obsessions Shiny Toy Guns - Don't Cry Out CHER - Classified 1A CHER - Believe CHER - I saw a man and he danced with his wife Howling Bells - A Ballad for the bleeding hearts Kelis - Caught out there The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out Oasis - Stop Crying Your Heart Out Many more, woah. Definitely Believe. It just brings back so many fantastic memories from that time in my life, and it makes me emotional. :) I Gotta Feeling will probably have that effect on me in the future to be honest, for similar reasons. But there's LOTS of songs that make me cry/get emotional. I think I feel music more than the average person. :lol: Although a lot of ballads are just too boring for me to get emotional.
