Music, That crumbles even the most biggest Mountian

I'm posting this thread to find out what music pulls on people's heart stings so much they can't hold back the tears....

………I find it funny in the fact that I could be happy as 'Larry' one minute, then reduced to a Big Ball of mess, by only listening to one song from my certain sad list…..

I’ve Checked past threads and they only thing I came close to finding was best film scores…..

So please Post I’m very fascinated in Music that make’s you really cry even the hardest of men too……..through shear intensity of the score or personal connection…..

My top 5 list would be in no particular order;

1. Adagio For Strings – Barber
2. Schindler's List
3. Casper's Lullaby
4. Braveheart - End Credits
5. Black Hawk Down - Minstrel Boy

Greenbird by yoko kanno.

 

I've never cried for the music I'm listening to but have done so with the movie along with the music.Here's a few of those movies and its their main theme that is what gets to me along with the visuals.

Somewhere In Time

Dr. Zchivago

Bambi

 

Banjo music makes my eyes smart.

If that counts..

 

"American Pie" by Don McLean is a sad song, though I personally have never cried to it.

 

Stairway to Heaven - The solo makes me want to cry.

 

An die Schoner Blau Donau. The whole thing of it is most excellent.
Basically, any classical music.
And "Ich Hatt' Einen Kameraden"

 

Ministry: Piss

*sob sob*


Dimvert? How 'bout some Bach?
I would prefer that with a Jack Nicholson analogy.

 

Beatles: Let it Be

 

Ah. Bach. Lovely.
Contrapunctus, of course. Or the Goldberg Variations.

"Here's Johnny!!"

Good enough for you?
Nah. I didn't even try, did I? Hmm. Jack Nicholson. Jack Nicholson. I've already done Five Easy Pieces... What else might fit the bill?
Sorry. I'm short on Nicholson parables at the moment.

How about Clint Eastwood?

"Left turn, Clyde."

Nah. That doesn't work either...
Hmm.


Oh. And as to Ministry. I like So What better. Or Just One Fix.

 

All the music written by Howard Shore in the Lord of the Rings movies. Very moving stuff when combined with the awesome visuals.

 

King of the heart sting pullers would have to be "Hans Zimmer"

 

Usually anything done by people who don't have a clue about how music is made yet still get to the top of charts makes my heart cry. Humanity ain't what it used to be.

 

I know exactly what you mean...
Most of CBB's music is amazing.

Kom Susser Todd?

Mosr to the main topic though, is you are looking for depressing as hell, how about some amiee mann, or long december by the counting crows.

 

I love the score in "American Beauty". It stayed with me ever since I saw the film ... long ago.

 

'Somewhere My Love', from the 1965 film Doctor Zhivargo.

 

Hallelujah by the late Jeff Buckley is a song I find very emotional.
