When my grandma passed away, it was the only thing that got me through it. I wasn't able to go to her funeral for ~family drama~ reasons, and the song helped so much. I'm really glad it helped you, too. But yeah. F*cking waterworks each time.

I think I would've died.


Some other tearjerkers for me, as taken from my "Heartbreaking Stevie Sh*t" playlist on iTunes:

Storms
CRYSTAL (this will be my wedding song)
Beautiful Child
Silver Springs
FORSAKEN LOVE


These songs perfectly describe a specific situation from my past, so they get me pretty badly.

I totally get it. I always liked FM and Stevie before seeing her perform Silver Springs during The Dance, but AFTER that happened, I was hooked.

MANY SONGS, FOR VARIOUS REASONS..HERE ARE A FEW:

Crystal: either version (FM or Practical Magic) I want this song at my wedding, if I can ever find Mr. Right
I have been lookign for the real thing for so long, the line "That has finally, finally found me" gets me every time.


Gypsy: This is my theme song. So much so, I have the lyrics tattooed on my shoulder blade.
This song makes me happy, and simply floods me with beauty.

Beautiful Child: No explanation needed....just a gut-wrenchingly beautiful, poignant masterpiece.

God's Garden: Not only does this song rip my heart out lyrically, just the tired, completely worn out sound of Stevie's voice makes me cry for her. I know she was heavily addicted to Klonopin at the time, and the whole thing is just so sad. she was missing her best friend, and just in a sad state in her life. There are only a few times I am actually able to make it through this entire song.

One more thing:

I know there are mixed feelings about this demo, and some people find it ridiculous, but the Rhainnon Birds Rising demo makes me cry like a fool.

The part where Stevie says: "Lindsey, don't you think that Rhiannon is a beautiful name?" "Yes, stevie I do......I think that Rhiannon is a beautiful name"

Oh My LORD! The mere sound of her voice during that line just kills me.

She really, truly loved him......

"Love Is" (that line "she told in the hallway frozen, in the dark, and her heart broke down, she cried, she fell to the floor")

"Sleeping Angel" (dunno why but for some reason the end gets me)

Thumbs up

Very cool thread, Lindsay.
A few of Stevie's songs make me cry...Love Is, Gypsy, Silver Springs. But the one that gets me is Seven Wonders. Does anyone here remember when MTV actually played FMac videos? I do . I rememeber my best friend and I being young, excited girls watching MTV and waiting for the premiere of the Seven Wonders video. Stevie looked so beautiful in this video, and of course we wanted to be her! When I hear that song, it just takes me back to being a kid in the 80's. Good times.
