What are ya... kidding me?
I don't listen to music that can't bring me to tears.
'Cause there are all kinza 'tears'....
Tears of joy.
Tears of rage.
Tears of frustration.
Tears of relief.
Tears of sadness.
Tears of irony.
Go on all day with that list.
Music, done right, is the unwavering finger of God. Any friggin' God ya
wanna name... Whatever.
The point is it's BIGGER.
Bigger than those Earthbound endevors which snare and harry the
purposeful voyage of our spirit.
SM.

The instrumental in Firth of fifth (Genesis) and the live version of "in your eyes" by Gabriel. The intensity and passion of these songs is impressive. The musicians there really put their hearts on every note and tone.

God! Way too many individual songs to list here. However, two that have me reduced to a bubbling mess every single time are Amazing Blondel "Fantasia Lindum" -edit "Celestial Light." The most beautiful vocals I have ever heard in my life. And of course the finale to "Supper's Ready" by Genesis.

Oh God!
The track "The Snow Goose" from the Camel album of the same name does it every time. I should NEVER have read the Gallico book. Talk about a tear jerker.
Love Beach also makes me want to cry but for totally different reasons!

I don't cry during music but generally a lot of stuff from Peter Gabriel and
old Genesis gives me the chills because of how emotional and intense they
are.

Commoner moment here...Download Festival 2004...Metallica (stop laughing, I was young and stupid then) they played Fade To Black, which is a beautiful song anyway, but then it started raining. It was like...woah. wow.
Unfortuantely I'm not as in touch with my emotions as I would like. No films scare me and I haven't cried in about 6 years. No joke. If I could cry, I could think of a fair few songs to do so. first time I heard Fading Lights by Genesis, it was so amazing and exceeded my expectations of the song, being 90s Genesis as it is...I wanted to cry. But couldn't.

Wow... 
I've never really been moved to tears by a song. I'm still looking for
the band that does it for me. The Perfect Element gets me going, but
it's nothing like tears...just huge emotions. Especially that last song.

I don't really cry when I listen to music. I usually just get chills down my spine, goosebumps or that general feeling of "awesomeness" because what I had just heard was so awesome.

I don't cry directly because of music, but I listen to music when I'm crying...
Mostly Opeth's "Damnation," or Metallica's "Fade To Black (not really prog, but that doesn't matter when you're crying)."
The only music that makes me cry is Limp Bizkit (hardly a wonderful experience either).
