Tell me.... Can music make you cry???.... Who is the artist and why???....  

Indeed there are such melodies that can make me (and everyone else) cry, different songs for each - regardless of bringing back memories or having an intense emotional tone.

can music make me cry? definitely yes. it'd be tears in heaven by eric clapton. the song has such powerful words and melodies. whenever i hear the song i always remember my garndpa and my little who passed away, hoping they would recognize me if i see them in heaven. i guess clapton has a strange way of making listeners cry.

I get emotional when i hear and see the song of Lionel richie- Hello... I've been alone with you inside my mind and in my dreams ive kissed your lips....I love you.
A great touching song that I really like and relish.

A song can hold alot of emotion and emit emotion and the feeling of the song writer and the performer. Music is one of the most inspirational source of energy that we all listen to.

Amazing Grace I always shed a few tears.

Christmas Shoes - can't stand to listen to it all the way through, it is just too too sad. Who wants to think of someone dying on Christmas.

There is a country song out now about a little girl and child abuse, telling of her bruises and that no one steps in, at the end of the song, the the girl dies.

Yes, these are poignant songs, but for crying out loud, do they have to be so darn sad. They are well written songs, but I don't know of anyone who does not flip the channel when they come on.

Most people tune into music for the beat, melody or an up-tempo message.

Yes, there are a lot of songs that makes me cry. One is the song by Brian Mcknight, One last cry. And other heartbroken songs. It reminds me of my broken relationships.

Bright Eyes by Art Gurfunkle from Watership Down (not the artist) - saw the film today :-(

Some Radiohead songs esp. Fake Plastic Trees

Robert Wyatt - Shipbuilding, Kate Bush - Army Dreamers & some other sonngs about injustice
because they remind me of how powerless I am to change things.

Yngwie Malmsteen's "I'm My Own Enemy" always makes me shed some tears. I remember a lot of special people in my life when I listen to it. The song I think, is about people we truly love. It's also about endless sorrow and facing the challenges of life alone.

Corny but true. :-)

There are a couple of songs that can bring me to tears. One is Eric Clapton's "Tears In Heaven" and the other is, funnily enough, Richard Marx's "Right Here Waiting." "Tears in Heaven" gets to me because of having lost a couple of very dear people. The story behind "Right Here Waiting" is a bit longer, though...

A couple of years ago, I met this amazing guy. It didn't take me long at all, really, to find myself falling in love with him. When I finally got the nerve to confess to him how I felt, I was pleasantly surprised to find that he felt the same way. We were inseparable (except for when we had no choice in the matter! lol) from that moment on. That song came on the radio one day while we were just hanging out together, and he sang along. A few days later, he handed me a note with the chorus quoted on it.

Not long after, I broke up with him.:( The primary cause for my decision was that I felt that I had "too much baggage" and that I was more trouble than I could possibly be worth. I didn't discuss that with him, I just made up his mind for him! Oh, what a mistake. We didn't speak again for a long time.

One day, though, we ... ran into one another. And for a while, he just ... stood there, and waited for me to notice. When I did, I was concerned that my presence would be disruptive or upsetting to him, so I made it a point to talk to him, and tell him that I didn't mean to be a problem. He simply said that it would be nice to be able to talk sometimes. My heart, I think, literally stopped.

I'd never stopped loving him. After breaking up with him, I expected that he'd never want to talk to me again. I honestly thought that that was better for him. But you know what they say about the road to Hell being paved with good intentions.

Being without him was the hardest thing I think I ever did. So, I was thrilled that he wanted to talk to me at all. And talk we did. Daily. Eventually, of course, we came round to the talk about "why?" I told him how I'd felt that I was more trouble than I was worth, and how I felt it was better for him. He, of course, wondered why I didn't think he had a say in the matter, and he told me he still felt "something" but wasn't sure what "something" was. So, I tried to content myself with being "just a friend."

That was practically impossible! Every time I saw him, or heard his voice, I just wanted to reach out to him. I wanted so badly to know that he still loved me, too. I waited, I tried waiting patiently, even... I told him, though, one day that I loved him, that I would always love him, and that it was okay and understandable if he didn't feel the same, but that IF he had feelings for me, to please tell me so. His response to me was "...those feelings are still there, because they were never gone." And it hit me like a ton of bricks. I remembered how he'd sang along with that song, and I remembered how he'd made it a point to write the lyrics down for me. I knew that he'd meant it with all his heart at that moment. And I think I just may have been the happiest girl alive.;-)

We've been together ever since, and this time, I'm not about to do any decision-making FOR him ever again!:)

Woo... like I said, long story. But that's the "why!"

Tim McGraw - Don't take the girl ... Because I'm ABLE to get pregnant (supposedly) However, I'm not SUPPOSED to HAVE children. It's potentially life threatening for myself and the child. The lyrics that always get to me are these; "Doctor says the baby's fine, but you'll have to leave. Cause his momma's fading fast and Johnny hit his knees and there he prayed - Take the very breath you gave me. Take the heart from my chest. I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me, make this my last request. Take me out of this world...God please, don't take the girl" If you're unfamilar with that song, you'd have to listen (or read) the whole thing to even feel the entire impact of that song. So obviously, because of my "condition" and lack of ability to give birth, it gets to me.

Another one would be Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole - Unforgettable. My grandpa and I used to sing this song together when I was a little girl. He was my buddy, my inspiration, my surrogate dad. We lost him expectedly just over a year ago.

i cry every time i heard this song
across the universe by fiona apple, a beatles´ cover
i remember a old love and think about all the things we lived.
