re: Ever been brought to tears by music?

Live performances of Beethoven. The 5th and 9th symphonies were the last two that I have seen. Both were very moving experiences. The 9th particularly.

Yeah, there's a couple of Pedro the Lion songs that have done it.

Pink Floyd, Nobody home, although I'm usually in a bit of a mood when I listen to it anyway

Literally every time I hear it. My daughter loves this song. So, I cry every time.

Troll roller skating scene/movie clip song

Willie's Funny How Time Slips Away hits me right in the feels for obvious personal reasons

Beethoven's 3rd does it.

There are plenty sad songs and songs that bring back memories that are tear-jerkers.

But Symphony No. 3 hits me from a pure musical perfection standpoint.

ETA, Just saw this:

Yes. Everything Beethoven pretty much. The Third is both artistic and personal for me.

I told my wife the other day that there was Beethoven, a fairly large gap, then Bach, Mozart, Haydn, Handel,Tchaikovsky, Chopin, a few others, another large gap and everybody else.

Oh, and Move to Music Board.

Never really AT a song but there are several that I'll relate to something personal in my life and cry over

Boyz II Men "A song for mama" and Tupac's "Dear Mama" gets me every single time

Yep, when the choral part really gets going in Beethoven's 9th
