I've watched all the Vegas SG videos multiple times. She's not making herself cry. That's genuine; she even tries to control it, and mostly fails. [
x] There are often certain songs which trigger her or them; Lindsey had choked slightly on SG a show or two earlier, in fact - he dedicated that one to her as well, which she repaid with an emotional Landslide dedication, IIRC. My impression was back then and still remains that it was especially emotional primarily because they knew it was the last proper gig with just the two of them upfront, doing 'their' thing - Say Goodbye in a few ways, then. It's a very personal song with just them onstage and that, as well as the show, was really ending.
I always got the sense last year that they allowed themselves quite a lot of freedom when it came to personal stuff onstage compared to other occasions. As Stevie emphasised in interviews, she insisted to him that they not be fake, that they remember who they were 'before' and embrace being that 'cute', 'compassionate', 'loving', 'funny' power couple. She moves away from the mic because she realises fairly swiftly that Lindsey is going to dedicate it to her. You can see her shake her head. She wasn't bowing.

He then says that she'll be mad at him but he wanted to do the dedication for her, and that she should just try and do her best. She struggles through it, the 'time within a time' section - as almost always - getting her worked up the most. If you watch other
videos, it's quite clear that Lindsey is more than a little teary himself, actually.
