How about Strong Hand by Emmylou Harris? She wrote it for Johnny Cash after June Carter Cash died. If that doesn't move you to tears, you have a heart of stone!

Oh, yes. I got tears in my eyes when I first heard it. What a way to open it:

Avalanche is sullen and too thin
She's starves herself to rid herself of sin
And the kick it so divine when she sees bones beneath her skin
And she says "Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon, baby, can you bleed like me?"

Oy. It's devastating.

All I listen to are either angry or sad songs, since I'm a little self-loathing emo kid like that.

The Pretenders - Kid, Back on the Chain Gang, The Losing, Chill Factor, The English Roses.. I could go on, as Chrissie Hynde's voice has this ablity to turn me into a weeping mess.
U2 - All I Want is You, Running to Stand Still, Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own, With Or Without You, One, MLK, etc.
Blondie - Faces, Follow Me
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps
Pearl Jam - Last Kiss
Garbage - A Stroke of Luck, The Trick is to Keep Breathing, Medication, Cup of Coffee
No Doubt - Don't Speak, Too Late, Suspension Without Suspense, Sometimes
The Kinks - Celluloid Heroes
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
RHCP - Under the Bridge
Nirvana - All Appologies

I'll Stand By You - Pretenders

I'm listening to it now and I just thought it was sad. Not sure if anyone said it yet

Not yet! Such a sad song! I want someone to stand by me!!! Oh, wait, that's a Stevie song I just accidentally quoted. Their cover of Bob Dylan's Forever Young kills me too.

Ohhh! What about After All by Cher and Peter Cetera? I loves me this song.

God, ISBY makes me weep like a little baby. As does Forever Young. Thanks for making me all emo, Chrissie. -_-

Oh! Forgot about Wise Up by Aimee Mann. So beautiful. Gah.

Pearl Jam is touring Canada this summer. Weird, eh? Why would that be? No US dates? Too bad I don't like them! But I've got friends who are totally flipping out to see them!
