That reminds me of another GREAT, but sad Counting Crows song, from the Cruel Intentions soundtrack called 'Colorblind'

Whew! That one is hard for me to swallow sometimes, as is Mad World by Gary Jules from Donnie Darko.

"You light up my life." I don't know the singer's name, but it was a theme song for a movie about a near-blind ice skater. I cry like a girl, everytime I see the movie..

I think it's 80's movie..

wind beneath my wings - was a sad moment when I was a kid, and it still gets me know....I can post this, because I have no man card to revoke....although I can't say it makes me cry, just a little sad...no song makes me cry!

Type O Negative - Bloody Kisses (A Death In The Family)


not long ago but far away
A rainy winter's day
All her pain she kept inside
Could no longer hide
No cry for help
She killed herself
Both life & love could not be saved
She took them both to the grave

A pair of souls become undone
Where were two now one
Devided by this wall of death
I soon will join you yet
With my blood I'll find your love
You found the strength to end you life
As you did so shall I

Oh no
Please don't go
It's like a death in the family

A crimson pool so warm & deep
Lulls me to an endless sleep
Your hand in mine - I will be brave
Take me from this earth
An endless night - this, the end of my life
From the dark I feel your lips
And I taste your bloody kiss

Oh no
Please don't go
It's like a death in the family

Don't die on me
Don't die on me
Don't die on me
Dont' die

serious response: I can't really think of any songs that bring me to tears (movies would be an entirely different matter). Jewel's "Oh Holy Night" and the main theme to Titanic are fairly moving to me. Also, "Runaway" by the Corrs.

pseudo-serious response: Almost anything played on FM. Pure garbage.

Holy crap, you're right! In elementary school, in music class... the teacher would play this for us each year on that wreck's anniversary. Such a wonderfuly sad song. :(

I can't believe nobody has said "Angel" by Sarah McLaughlin.

LOL at you

Well it's surprising, seeing that people put Metallica songs and some others.....I would expect to have seen that one on here.

I know my current girlfriend and the one before her had a soft spot for this song because of the movie.....I've never actually seen the movie, but I do like the song.


I guess it doesn't affect your girlfriend much.
