    Default songs you tear up to

    anyone have songs that they tear up to?
    i have only one.
    To live is to Die, by metallica (duh.)
    specifically 4:32-6:47
    it was the memorial song for Cliff, which is probably why i teared up. especially when the violins come in.

    i also learned the solo for that song. its actually quite easy, (almost) all in the 14th, 17th and 16ths frets.

    The night the dorve old dixie down-The Band
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    My eyes get wet everytime I listen to our national anthem (the Deutschlandlied). "Ich hatt einen Kameraden" is pretty sad.

    Hurt - Johnny Cash (I know it was originally a NIN's song, but Cash did it so much better)

    Taps - You know it's gonna be a bad day when you hear this song playing at Ft. Missoula (I work like 3 blocks from the VA Cemetery). Thankfully its only happened maybe twice, but I still get teary.

    Layla - Eric Clapton

    Well, kind of. The content of the song is irrelevant, as it's a personal thing.

    And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda.

    Don't just play it for November eleventh. Play it all the time, and cry until it hurts.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I get a strong desire to tear up the road whenever I hear "It's a long way to the top". Does that count?

    For some strange reason, that is the way I read the title until I opened up the thread

    I know there are more, but I cannot think of them now. :P These ones are real tear jerkers though.

    Amazing Grace played on bagpipes will get me every time. People always tell me that's odd because I'm, not to introduce an off topic, the opposite of religious, but if you hear Amazing Grace piped live at a funeral even once in your life I guarantee it's an experience you'll never forget.

    Sometimes Dylan's The Times They Are A-Changin' will get me, depends on my mood.

    Only songs that can match that for Australian-ness are Land Down Under and Waltzing Matilda.

    See this is why we put you there dear god put a sock in it

    Oh and this one gets me every time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkX7...01E79E&index=0

    RIP Andre you silly fattie you are missed.

    Especially fun at 3:00 when the audience takes over. Of course you don't undertand the lyrics but it's about a father taking his son apart for a good talk, we call it 'het levenslied', bit like german schlagers
