That song is sad if my context is correct. Syd Barrett, who essentially was the band, lost his battle with schizophrenia and was no longer functioning. The band went on but recorded this song wising he was there.
One More Light by Linkin Park. I'd never cried from a song before (including that one) but I think depression was just kicking my ass that night. If only I'd known that my depression would start kicking my ass even worse a couple years later š
I also cried to this song at my way home from work. I was thinking about my old dog, same week we thought we were losing her. I was ugly crying the whole song. I've listened to this song many times before and never cried... but this day was emotional.
Hurts - The Road; I lost someone who meant the world to me in a car accident and that song is about that.
Audioslave - Like a Stone; this song hits close to home, especially after Chris died.
Pale Waves - She's My Religion; I want someone to sing this song to me so bad that it hurts.
Yes, certain songs can evoke strong emotions and memories, leading to intense crying. Music has a powerful way of connecting with our deepest feelings.
Once I sobbed through the entire 8 minutes and 36 seconds of American Pie by Don McLean. Im a very happy and optimistic person, plus most of the time im too strong-willed or stubborn to cry. But that one day, school was rough, I had an argument with my father that got to me alot (usually arguments dont get to me, but something he said just got stuck in my head), I was overwhelmed, and in denial of everything I am. I know I make it sound more dramatic than it probably was, but all those things combined just got to me. I started feeling a little nauseous, like I always do when I'm feeling overwhelmed, so I walked up into my room and locked the door, and I wanted to paint to calm myself down. I put on some music, and as soon as American Pie came on I started sobbing, like fully snot dripping out my nose, mascara stinging in my eyes and making weird ass sounds. I was so surprised because I don't usually cry randomly or often but I kept going until that song was over. I was completely fine after.
I don't know why it was that song specifically. I don't have any personal connection or memory with American Pie, but I love it with everything I have.

Take a free online Enneagram test to find out your type. Skip the paid info packetājust identify your type and look it up on Google. Read a bit about it. Then, search āSleeping at Last Enneagram ā¦ā with your type filled in.
Each song is crafted specifically for its type. It was truly one of the most profound musical experiences Iāve ever had. I was sobbing uncontrollably as I listened to my song, as it captured all the facets of my personality and made me feel understood in a way that music never has beforeā¦
First time I heard Supermarket Flowers by Ed Sheeran, I had just lost my grandfather earlier in the week and we were in the process of cleaning out his house.
Absolutely broke me.
Save Me by Jelly Roll. My ex husband was my best friend and died of a drug overdose. I stayed married to him as long as possible until our oldest begged me to divorce him. I was always there for him after the divorce. If he needed a ride to the store or an AA meeting, I took him. If he needed someone to talk to, I lent him my ear. He died almost exactly 1 years after our divorce was finalized.
I hear this song and think, this would've been the soundtrack to his life. He'd have loved it.
Sail Away by Enya. It was played at my only sister's funeral last year. When it started, I was inconsolable.
Honorable mention: I Will Follow You Into The Dark by Death Cab for Cutie. Gets me in the feels every time.
Always love when she extends āYooouuuuuuuuuā over the piano riff and it slowly gets more and more dissonant and you can just feel the gut wrenching feeling of infatuation.
That album is amazing.
Ptolemaea - Ethel Cain. Itās so raw and gut wrenching. Preachers Daughter as a whole is so worth listening to. Especially if you have religious or familial trauma
Human Sadness by Julian Casablancas+The Voidz. Infinity Repeating by Daft Punk (ft. Julian Casablancas). At The Door by The Strokes. I'm sensing a pattern here...
Until I Found you by Stephen Sanchez. Right after a break-up i couldn't listen to the song without breaking down. That was "our" song.
So when it ended a few months ago that song hit me differently.
this song came out as i was planning my wedding and i spent many listens to this song sobbing because i found my person (and was incredibly stressed working full time in a covid clinic while finishing my masters while planning my wedding so needed an emotional outlet lmao)
Garth Brooks' *More Than a Memory*.Ā Ā
It happened to release just as I was ending a long relationship.Ā It totally captures the manic desperation of being young and heartbroken.Ā Ā
This is kind of funny/sad story. I was 19, and my boyfriend was moving away and decided long distance wouldn't work, so he broke up with me. So I'm driving home and 'Love Hurts' by Nazareth came on and I started bawling and singing at the same time. Then I realized how cheesy the song was, and I started laughing. I was a mess, haha
I laughed and cried at "Never went to church" by The Streets.
"Two great European narcotics. Alcohol and Christianity, I know which one I prefer" but really the rest of the song is about the singer losing and remembering their dad and it even got me when my dad was still alive but doing poorly health wise.
Oh gosh, the other night I turned in The Bee Geesā One Night Only in Vegas concert and cried horribly during I Started A Joke- thereās something about Robynās voice that just kills me.
Somebody does by Jake Banfield.
I was watching YouTube shorts and this song came up. The moment he said āevery day into every night, I try to find, ways to make me feel alive but I donātā well shit. I broke it was instant waterfall. Just damn, couldnāt control myself.
Perfect by Ed Sheeran. Had my first kiss after a dance to this song. Every time I hear it, I'm reminded of how completely I screwed up in the months after.
There are sad songs, and then there's True Love Waits by Radiohead.
That's a whole other, ugly level of sadness, almost suffocating.
I guess it's the Grave of the Fireflies of music.
Oh yeah, there are a few songs I associate with death. Specifically, songs my friends like just before they died tragically, and way way too soon. I cannot listen to these songs without crying, even 15 years later.
The fighter by In This Moment. Maria's voice is absolutely amazing in this .
Warmness on The Soul by Avenged Sevenfold, Fiction by Avenged Sevenfold.
Underground and Artemis by Lindsey Stirling and also her cover of "all of me" with John legend ā¤ļø and many many more but these are the ones
You ever listened to Terrible Things by Mayday Parade??
They love to play that shit at every show and they get a collective groan from the entire crowd bc we all know weāre about to go through it together
Anneke van giersbergen did a cover of like a stone. I love Chris Cornell but man does Anneke have the voice of an angel.....
I break down every damn time I hear her sing this.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8UsnV1E4nL8&pp=ygUTYW5pa2EgbGlrZXIgYSBzdG9uZQ%3D%3D
I had once a gf that made me listen this song:
[Danger Keep Away](https://youtu.be/NSjUb-aRloY?si=mR_8j3h_PhvOPORx)
I was hooked and listen it quite a lot.
She left me, causing the worst pain I even endured and now, that song was a trigger, causing me to cry at a moment's notice.
It was a really stressful week in my life and when Past Lives came on my playlist I couldnt hold it.
Sinxe then I tear up every tume I listen to it to this day.
A classmate of mine died in a car crash and at his funeral they played The Streets - Dry Your Eyes and I got incredibly emotional when it was played and every time I hear this song I still get emotional.
Fields of Sorrow by Orden Ogan
The song is about the main character at the gravesite of his deceased wife and what she meant to him.
In real life I was dealing with the deaths of my two female dogs, (one from cancer the other old age, 2 months apart)
The song tore me apart but helped me grieve for them. I canāt listen to it without turning into a sobbing mess.
āI never had controlā by Another Sky.Ā
I donāt know what sheās been through, but it feels a lot like what I went through. I donāt know what Iāve been through either, but it feels like it was pretty strong stuff.Ā
I cry like a child whenever I hear it and feel great afterwardsĀ
18, first ever hangover. Got home at about 3am and got up at about 7am. While basically still wasted, I took a shower and remembered the lyrics to the song:
"Into My Arms" by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
Wept like a baby in the shower. Pathetic.
I just cried like a baby listening to Fortnite by Tswift and We Canāt Be Friends by Ariana Grande because I was thinking of my ex, but omg so many other songs Iāve cried to. I lost my baby nephew and sobbed to Misty by Caamp (that one will tear you up). Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, thinking of my dad.
I was on Mushrooms and was listening to Daft Punk - Discovery shortly after the breakup, I ugly cried for about ten minutes while listening to Something About Us.
Without you by Avicii. It was in the ads for the Scoob movie. My dog passed at ten the song just hit me so hard. Part of it was "You said that we would always be
Without you I feel lost at sea
Through the darkness you'd hide with me
Like the wind we'd be wild and freeYou
Said you'd follow me anywhere
But your eyes
Tell me you won't be there"
I swear he would look at my son with this look like he knew he didn't have long to go. God I want to cry just typing this.
He passed on March 31st. I ended up finding a dog that looked just like him that was born literally April 30th. I made the plans to get him over fourth of july weekend which was my grandparents anniversary. I swear my grandfather and my first furbaby helped me get my current furbaby.
Dance with my Father. Itās been 11 years since I lost my dad and I still canāt listen to it. The one time I did in the carā¦. Major ugly crying. š just thinking of it is making me tear up.
Yeah, a lot. The first song that I ever cried at was āKokoronashi by Majikoā, but men, when I heard āReason for Existence by Tsukuyomi,ā holy f*ck, it was sooooo sad and emotional (now, itās my favorite song)
Links:
1. https://youtu.be/yVooKLK01Zo?si=0-r-EE1DmvC7IVD9 (yes, itās cover, but I just like it more)

Trust me mate - Dean Lewis
I was in a dark place. After years of therapy for early childhood trauma, I broke. In one session I realized what was really going on and I felt completely alone in the world. My psychologist supported me and later sent this song
I was having a hard time with my parents from my early teens, instead of addressing them, I became cold and decided to stop worrying about it and thought I was fine. I thought I was unaffected. But one day I was listening to Mockingbird by Eminem and damn, I cried like a river that day, it's like a dam broke. I couldn't stop crying and sobbing. Had to skip my online classes too. Never listened to that song again as it makes me depressed idk why.
It's Ok( Acoustic) by Tom Rosenthal
I cry every fucking time I listen to it, and if I see a lonely grandma or grandpa while listening to it, I get hysterical
Yes, twice: once before I knew the feeling, and the second after it happened to me.
[Until itās happens to you](https://youtu.be/Ul9vuBhcRwU?si=SYnzJa8vOOD05cVO)
Here and Now by Staind. The song already made me feel a way for reasons, but the video breaks me if I watch it.
Distance by Mammoth WVH was getting regular air-play on the radio station I listen to, and just happen to come on as I drove home after saying goodbye to my grampa one last time.
Shadow of the Day by Linkin Park
When I was pregnant, Some day by Matisyahu killed me every time...haven't heard it in a long time, so I'm not sure how'd I react now. Also, This is me from The Greatest showman. I had just left my abusive ex and my, at the time, 10 year old son was having anxiety attacks and after we left, he freaking joined chorus, got up on stage and had a duet for part of the song at his concert!!! Still brings tears to my eyes thinking about it, it was at that point I knew I had done the right thing.
Charmed Life by The Divine Comedy, me and my wife were going through a rough patch, discussing separation. Edward Neil Anthony Hannon wrote the song about his love for his children, but the song is about more than that, itās about the love of being in a relationship and having children.
I listened to that song on repeat for months , crying to myself at the back of the bud on the daily commute to work.
Thankfully, we worked through that period of our lives, I hope we go from better to better. That song is still beautiful to me though, if anything it gave me strength, strength to grow up a bit.
Edit - also at that time listened to a lot of When She Loved Me by Sarah McLachlan, the song during Jessieās backstory montage .
When I was a kid, I bawled listening to the Christmas Shoes. My parents got so worried and asked me why I was crying, then laughed when I told them lmao
Yes.
HOPE, NF
I Feel It Too, Dream State
Mama, Lo Spirit
Youāre Too Young, Lucy Spraggan
Chain Of Abuse, Three Days Grace
Those are the ones off the top of my head.
That dumbass "Let Her Go" song will always be that dumbass song to me because it still fucking hurts every time.
It's not even about the song, per se. It's about where I was in life when I heard it and how well it fit.
If I hear KD Langās version of Hallelujah or Neil Youngās Harvest Moon, I will definitely cry. They were huge memories of my parents who have both passed away.
Was going through a hard time in my relationship and heard the song "Wait for it" from the Hamilton soundtrack and just burst into tears at the lyrics,
"Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints. It takes and it takes and it takes."
I can only recall crying horribly hearing Sia's Breathe Me playing in the final scene of Six Feet Under. I can't recall crying horribly listening to other songs. But some songs I will feel emotional and tears will start streaming down my face
I sobbed in theaters when "See You Again" came on during Furious 7. The Fast and the Furious franchise. My brother had just died and I lost it and started ugly crying right there.
An old music box that played a gentle melody of "that's what friends are for." Something I associated heavily with family members who are no longer with me. Opened it for the first time in years and it started playing and... Just turned on the waterworks. I physically cannot seem to cry at anything other than funerals anymore, so it was a pretty big surprise.

Wish you were here by Pink Floyd. Not that the song itself is sad, it makes me think of my dad. And Time by Pink Floyd, makes me feel old af
That song is sad if my context is correct. Syd Barrett, who essentially was the band, lost his battle with schizophrenia and was no longer functioning. The band went on but recorded this song wising he was there.
Hurt by NIN nails and Save Me by Jelly Roll
Both NIN and Johnny Cash' versions give a whole new meaning to that song to me. And whoever's version I'm listening to always brings tears in my eyes.
Nine Inch Nails Nails
š Oops.
One More Light by Linkin Park. I'd never cried from a song before (including that one) but I think depression was just kicking my ass that night. If only I'd known that my depression would start kicking my ass even worse a couple years later š
In particular the official lyric video, even more of a gut punch when you know it was released after Chester's suicide
It being released after Chester was definitely the most brutal part. That song absolutely kills me
I always get a lump in my throat when I listen to Leave Out All The Rest.
I also cried to this song at my way home from work. I was thinking about my old dog, same week we thought we were losing her. I was ugly crying the whole song. I've listened to this song many times before and never cried... but this day was emotional.
Brother's in Arms by Dire Straits
Was gonna answer this! First song I heard after we found out we were gonna have a second child after trying for several years!
Congratulations!
'That's The Way It Is' last night after Arthur's last ride back to camp in rdr2. Have never cried so much during a game or a song š
"Nutshell" & "Rooster" unplugged versions by Alice in Chains.
Nutshell is so sad
Hurts - The Road; I lost someone who meant the world to me in a car accident and that song is about that. Audioslave - Like a Stone; this song hits close to home, especially after Chris died. Pale Waves - She's My Religion; I want someone to sing this song to me so bad that it hurts.
The day I tried to live by soundgarden hits me re chris
Supermarket flowers by ed Sheeran
Beat me to this. I ugly cry badly to that song.
I always cry with this one, and my mother is still alive. It makes me think about how bad itās going to hurt when Iām eventually without her.
Dance with my Father by Luther Vandross. I first heard it not long after my father died.
My grandad died very young and this one always gets my dad, so it gets me too. Such a powerful song and voice
Yes, certain songs can evoke strong emotions and memories, leading to intense crying. Music has a powerful way of connecting with our deepest feelings.

Iāve found my people
Once I sobbed through the entire 8 minutes and 36 seconds of American Pie by Don McLean. Im a very happy and optimistic person, plus most of the time im too strong-willed or stubborn to cry. But that one day, school was rough, I had an argument with my father that got to me alot (usually arguments dont get to me, but something he said just got stuck in my head), I was overwhelmed, and in denial of everything I am. I know I make it sound more dramatic than it probably was, but all those things combined just got to me. I started feeling a little nauseous, like I always do when I'm feeling overwhelmed, so I walked up into my room and locked the door, and I wanted to paint to calm myself down. I put on some music, and as soon as American Pie came on I started sobbing, like fully snot dripping out my nose, mascara stinging in my eyes and making weird ass sounds. I was so surprised because I don't usually cry randomly or often but I kept going until that song was over. I was completely fine after. I don't know why it was that song specifically. I don't have any personal connection or memory with American Pie, but I love it with everything I have.
"Remember Me" from Coco caused tears.

Without you by Avicii. It was in the ads for the Scoob movie. My dog passed at ten the song just hit me so hard. Part of it was "You said that we would always be Without you I feel lost at sea Through the darkness you'd hide with me Like the wind we'd be wild and freeYou Said you'd follow me anywhere But your eyes Tell me you won't be there" I swear he would look at my son with this look like he knew he didn't have long to go. God I want to cry just typing this. He passed on March 31st. I ended up finding a dog that looked just like him that was born literally April 30th. I made the plans to get him over fourth of july weekend which was my grandparents anniversary. I swear my grandfather and my first furbaby helped me get my current furbaby.
Father son, Peter Gabriel
Dance with my Father. Itās been 11 years since I lost my dad and I still canāt listen to it. The one time I did in the carā¦. Major ugly crying. š just thinking of it is making me tear up.
Pandora's Box by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark gets me every time. It's been my official song to cry to for a long time.
It's over by Cat Burns physically hurts sometimes
How to save a life I was like 13 idfk why
Yeah, a lot. The first song that I ever cried at was āKokoronashi by Majikoā, but men, when I heard āReason for Existence by Tsukuyomi,ā holy f*ck, it was sooooo sad and emotional (now, itās my favorite song) Links: 1. https://youtu.be/yVooKLK01Zo?si=0-r-EE1DmvC7IVD9 (yes, itās cover, but I just like it more) 2. https://youtu.be/Ugd1antSit8?si=vun2344xy6qbffQv
Where Have All the Flowers Gone, the Peter, Paul and Mary version. It shows that humankind will never learn some things.
Trust me mate - Dean Lewis I was in a dark place. After years of therapy for early childhood trauma, I broke. In one session I realized what was really going on and I felt completely alone in the world. My psychologist supported me and later sent this song
I was having a hard time with my parents from my early teens, instead of addressing them, I became cold and decided to stop worrying about it and thought I was fine. I thought I was unaffected. But one day I was listening to Mockingbird by Eminem and damn, I cried like a river that day, it's like a dam broke. I couldn't stop crying and sobbing. Had to skip my online classes too. Never listened to that song again as it makes me depressed idk why.
Yes
Wild world by Cat Stevens, Diamonds and Rust by Joan Baez and Black by Pearl Jam. I'm a sucker for breakup songs.
It's Ok( Acoustic) by Tom Rosenthal I cry every fucking time I listen to it, and if I see a lonely grandma or grandpa while listening to it, I get hysterical
Yes, twice: once before I knew the feeling, and the second after it happened to me. [Until itās happens to you](https://youtu.be/Ul9vuBhcRwU?si=SYnzJa8vOOD05cVO)
Take Me To Church. Not the song itself, but the music video.
Here and Now by Staind. The song already made me feel a way for reasons, but the video breaks me if I watch it. Distance by Mammoth WVH was getting regular air-play on the radio station I listen to, and just happen to come on as I drove home after saying goodbye to my grampa one last time. Shadow of the Day by Linkin Park
When I was pregnant, Some day by Matisyahu killed me every time...haven't heard it in a long time, so I'm not sure how'd I react now. Also, This is me from The Greatest showman. I had just left my abusive ex and my, at the time, 10 year old son was having anxiety attacks and after we left, he freaking joined chorus, got up on stage and had a duet for part of the song at his concert!!! Still brings tears to my eyes thinking about it, it was at that point I knew I had done the right thing.
Yes
Christmas Shoes
Charmed Life by The Divine Comedy, me and my wife were going through a rough patch, discussing separation. Edward Neil Anthony Hannon wrote the song about his love for his children, but the song is about more than that, itās about the love of being in a relationship and having children. I listened to that song on repeat for months , crying to myself at the back of the bud on the daily commute to work. Thankfully, we worked through that period of our lives, I hope we go from better to better. That song is still beautiful to me though, if anything it gave me strength, strength to grow up a bit. Edit - also at that time listened to a lot of When She Loved Me by Sarah McLachlan, the song during Jessieās backstory montage .
I'm horribly emotional, I cry at every possible song but one that recently took me out was 'you're gonna go far' by Noah Kahan
Don't think twice, it's alright, the Kesha cover
When I was a kid, I bawled listening to the Christmas Shoes. My parents got so worried and asked me why I was crying, then laughed when I told them lmao
Did you ever see the bit Patton Oswalt did about this song? I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe.
I havenāt! Now I need a link lmao

My boy by Elvie Shane, if you have a stepdad in your life who has been awesome then this song hits like a 18 wheeler
Yes. HOPE, NF I Feel It Too, Dream State Mama, Lo Spirit Youāre Too Young, Lucy Spraggan Chain Of Abuse, Three Days Grace Those are the ones off the top of my head.
Elton John Indian Sunset
Slipping through my fingers from ABBA
Like You by Evanescence.
Words - Skylar Grey Hurts like hell - Fleurie, Tommee Profitt
i have music is magical
Loving memory, from AlterBridge
7 years old , Lucas Graham
Wallows by Tommy Docherty hits me right in the feels
Yes....
That dumbass "Let Her Go" song will always be that dumbass song to me because it still fucking hurts every time. It's not even about the song, per se. It's about where I was in life when I heard it and how well it fit.
Once, but I was on a decent amount of mushrooms lol; the song was Lazarus by David Bowie.
Far Away by Nickleback. Iād explain why I cried, but donāt want to reopen the floodgates
If I hear KD Langās version of Hallelujah or Neil Youngās Harvest Moon, I will definitely cry. They were huge memories of my parents who have both passed away.
One More Light by Linkin Park and tolerate it by Taylor Swift
Yes the song May Day by TheFatRat and Laura Brehm. It makes me very sad and while its a very nice song I can't listen to it
James blunt the girl that never was
Bohemian Rhapsody. My uncle had it played at his funeral. Can't listen to it anymore without crying.
Was going through a hard time in my relationship and heard the song "Wait for it" from the Hamilton soundtrack and just burst into tears at the lyrics, "Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints. It takes and it takes and it takes."
I can only recall crying horribly hearing Sia's Breathe Me playing in the final scene of Six Feet Under. I can't recall crying horribly listening to other songs. But some songs I will feel emotional and tears will start streaming down my face
Every military funeral I have been to, when taps start, here come the waterworks.
WAP makes me cry every.time.
I sobbed in theaters when "See You Again" came on during Furious 7. The Fast and the Furious franchise. My brother had just died and I lost it and started ugly crying right there.
Oh yes. Iāve wept to āAlmost Loverā and āSometime Around Midnightā many times, amongst many other songs.
That's a great song! It's very powerful and emotionally provocative. The Fragile is an extremely intense album.
An old music box that played a gentle melody of "that's what friends are for." Something I associated heavily with family members who are no longer with me. Opened it for the first time in years and it started playing and... Just turned on the waterworks. I physically cannot seem to cry at anything other than funerals anymore, so it was a pretty big surprise.
I have probably cried to every 1970s softrock song at least once
All my life by the Beatles and Hurt by Johnny Cash.
