Songs that make you cry

This makes me somewhat sad when I hear it.

Oh man, there are so many for me.
But the one that comes to mind every time for me is "Breathe Me" by Sia. I think a lot of Sia's songs get me all emotional.

There are a few Explosions in the Sky songs & Death Cab for Cutie songs ("Transatlanticism" in particular) that get me emotional because they remind me of my first heartbreak (even though it was with a guy because this was pre-coming out era for me lol). But we were still close, so it was like I lost a best friend if nothing else. And I was going through a lot of self exploration and new life experiences during that time too, so I think some older indie songs kind of conjure up emotional feelings for me. Just bittersweet & confusing emotions lol.

 

How to Save A Life - The Fray

Seriously, it is the only song that can do it me. I don't even know why.

 

Cinderella - Steven Cutis Chapman

 

^^^Try the cover done by a Belgian womens' choir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ado5PMjr5k

I love this Radiohead tune by Thom Yorke. It's almost like the theme for the high school outcast.

 

This makes me cry the most.

Cancer, Desert Song, and The Light Behind Your Eyes, by My Chemical Romance

Fiddler on the Green, by Demons and Wizards

Someone Like You, by Adele

 

Oh boy, there are a lot.

Motion Picture Soundtrack, Glass Eyes, How To Dissapear Completely, and Let Down by Radiohead.

Some sadder Modest Mouse stuff as well, like Little Motel or Trailer Trash or maybe Life Like Weeds.

The Raven That Refused To Sing by Steven Wilson also comes to mind. I'll stop here before the list gets too big.

 

I cried the first time I heard Landslide by Fleetwood Mac. I can listen to it now without crying now but it always stirs something in my chest whenever I hear it.

 

Fineshrine - Purity Ring
I'm not sure why but every moment, every beat, every single note in this song just sends me into a weird feeling of happiness and sadness at the same time.

 

I would have to create a giant playlist for sad songs. Some make me cry because they relate to close to the heart. My newest favorite is Julien Baker. She is in my small list of deep personal favorite artists. Her song Go Home bitter sweetly smacked me in the face with a shovel!

I have a whole ton unfortunately, a lot by the same artists :icon_redf
A lot have personal meaning to me.

Fake Plastic Trees -Radiohead [personal, I don't know it's true meaning but it makes me think of my mental illnesses and being trans ]

Small Bump and Give me Love -Ed Sheeran [too personal]

Let It Go -James Bay [personal, it's a really complicated love story/tragedy involving myself and another guy :/ ]

Ho Hey -The Lumineers [personal, same as above]

Fix You and Everglow -Coldplay [general]

Push and Bent -Matchbox 20 [personal, my plethora of mental illness. The latter in particular reminds me of when I suffered from disordered eating. I used to listen to it all the time back then.]

Dollhouse -Melanie Martinez [personal, abuse survivor]

Everything Has Changed -Taylor Swift ft. Ed Sheeran [personal, my first crush helped me get through some really hard things, I'll never forget the kindness he showed me. I always listened to this back when I liked him XD]

How to Save a Life -The Fray [general]

Demons -Imagine Dragons [personal, mental illness, being LGBT]

Stop Crying Your Heart Out (lol) and Don't Look Back in Anger -Oasis [The former is just general and the latter I listened to immediately after someone special passed]

Something to Believe in -Poison [general]

There's probably way more that have made me cry at least once but this is all I can think of atm. I bet no one can top this XD

 

The only song that comes to mind is 'Who knew' by P!nk.
Love that song, but does make me cry.

 

Thousand miles by Christina Perri

Played randomly during many significant moments during my life.

The actual song that makes me cry without fail is the reprise version of that song (female solo).

 

he ain't heavy, he's my brother, played at my brother''s funeral. I can't even listen to it without crying

 

pretty much anything in tribute to the military, or other tragedy. im a bit of a softy at my core.
