Well as for me I would have to say movies it is something about a movie that just sits with you after you have saw a visual, I mean because it's somethihng that you look for in real life and all ff that is written is more like your fantasy person. I have seen this one movie and I tell you this movie is one of the best. Have anyone seen (A Walk to Remember) It's about a girl who was sick and decided to deal with her sickeness alone until one day she meet this jock at school he was a Bad tail, you know the ones that show off, but anyway he gets in trouble and in order to either graduat e or pass he had to take this class it was the same class she was taking, and the rest I let you all look at it from there butI will tell you this movie is a all time favorite of mines. As far as Love songs the only way that will get to you is if you have memories of a special person you either danced with or shared that special moment in time.

I've cried during Lifetime movies, lol. They're always as touching as can be and a real tearjerker. Some songs make me cry a little because of the memories they bring back. I don't cry watching every movie but the ones that hit home, sometimes I just can't help but get a tear running down my face.

I can only cry if the movie is all about family problem. I saw A Walk To Remember with my ex-girlfriend before. I like the movie but not much like my Ex-GF. She loves to watch LOVE STORY that is why I follow her. I don't want to watch movie that is related to family with my mother because she was affected with the scene and started to cry. When I saw her I also cry because I can relate it with our family who encounter alot of problems since I was a child and until now still going on. The best movie I saw was "Pursuit of Happiness". I really touch with the story of a estate brokers who acted by Will Smith. He experience several challenges until he succeed.

All man that movie proved to alot of people keep going because I mean seeing what he went through it's like his whole world shut down and most people would have given up, but he kept going and the knowledge of him is what made him that drive and passion in him I cried watching that movie I mean I was trying to smile and cry at the sametime but the tears where more, because I have been there I mean alot of people have. But yea Will Smith played that part. Thank you for that movie.

I become a sap with movies more so although if anyone puts on John Legend "Ordinary People" please don't let me be around because when that song came out, I lost someone I really liked and it reminds me of them.

Aww I'm sorry to hear that, that is a nice song to, but that song by Marsha Ambrosa I think I just spelled her name all wrong but she was the girl from floetry, that new song she has out about her friend she lost, that song is sad. But yeah if you have memories of a person that is tied to a song you would get emotional. thanks for your reply..

I usually don't cry over a love song. A movie is totally a different story. Give me a tearjerker of a love story to watch and i will probably cry every time.

Yes A Walk to Remember is a very good movie. I personally don't cry at movies all that often, but I do cry at them more often than songs. Songs just don't have the same effect on me as the movies do. For example, I cried at the end of Marley and Me. However I don't cry at songs hardly ever. I think they're sad, sure, but songs just don't have that visual to relate to like the movies.

I would have to say love movies make me cry more than love songs though sometimes love songs do make me cry from time to time. Love movies make me think of my boyfriend and everything we have shared together and what we would/wouldn't do for each other. If I was the girl in A Walk To Remember he would be the jock guy who wants to show me happiness and love. Its almost like I am living in a love movie.

The love movies make me cry more. Although the love songs can be touching, but when I watch the love movies. It seems that I have fallen into the movie and I will have a strong feeling. This is why I will be moved and then shed tears. I love China

There are movies that really made me cry...because the story is really good,or the actor/actress were really good to portray the story. Songs can make me cry too..when i am sad or lonely. Maybe..when person is too emotional and sentimental...they easily cried with movies or songs.

Movies for sure, but some songs too. I remember that when I saw Hachiko: A Dog's Story I cried during almost the entire movie, I already knew the real history of the movie so it was expected. If I wanna cry, it's just watch this movie! :) It's really difficult to a song makes me cry. But have that song "Dance with my father" by Luther Vandross that always let me really sad.

I would definitely have to say I cry more during movies. I did cry during a Walk to Remember, that was a good but sad movie. I don't really cry during love songs. They don't hit me as hard as a movie does.

"love movies" punctuated by songs, can further enchance the audience's emotions. "a walk to remember" is one of the most romantic movies and quite high in demand, Besides several other films like "50 first dates", "500 days of summer", "the notebook", etc. But this film is more forward side of pure romance and more quite good in moral message, with no added with a comedy or s*x scene, to excess. pretty much a moral message and words of wisdom that can be taken advantage of the film, made in 2002.

I'd go for movies. Especially if the story is perfect. t makes you eel connected, you sometimes love the character you see. The visual matters, it caughts the attention and interest Remember the old psychology in children , they tend to get interested in books with picures. About the love song, if it sounds good and the lyrics are the ones you can relate to, it will only be my last song syndrome.

I'm not a visual person and most songs/movies usually don't bring out emotions in me. However, if the song discribes something that brings up emotion I'll usually cry. An example would be Watching over me by Hillary Duff. She did the song for the movie um.... I don't remember the title, but she stared in it as this girl who had a gift for music and got into this music school out in Calafornia. After loosing her brother, Paul, she has to sneak off to do it. I don't remember. Though I do remember A Walk to Remember. I recently saw that movie. And, while I didn't quite understand the story until near the end, I did find the song "Only Hope" to be quite fitting. As I sang along, I was crying at the end when they replayed it. For me music has more of an impact on my emotions because it ties a story togeather. It doesn't have to be a love song, it just has to hit the right emotion and set the right kind of mood. Now this might be a poor example, but one I might use is "Can I have this Dance" from High School Musical 3" The song is kind of a good-bye of sorts. Two people in-love are faced with the reality of loosing one another and moving on after high school. I'm not sure if it clasifies as a love song, but it sends a message. It says don't give up no matter what. The line "Let it rain, let it poor What we have is worth fight for" says this quite well in my opinion.

The first time I cried when I heard the song of Albert Hammond (when im gone) the lyrics is very beautiful, and it makes me cry. I don't want to watch love movies I rather watch horror together with my girlfriend. In the song Why do people cry when they hear the word goodbye in a love song.
