Last Song That Moved You To Tears

Lullaby from "Savior" movie. I saw this film only once, but I can`t make it twice. Very hard theme.

This one usually does the trick. Guess it reminds me of some of my less happy years, but in a comforting way. Don't understand the lyrics - it's more about the feel of the song.

Oh my god. I just saw Isaura String Quartet at a music festival in Carlsbad. They did one piece that was a minimalist (or post minimalist?) drone piece and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. It was in a cathedral and I think I was at one of the best places for it soundwise because the room swayed and flowed with the music. I didn't even realize that I was tearing up during the performance and I needed a good while to gain my resolution.

I had a beer with lunch before I saw it but I was not even intoxicated when I saw it. Crazy to experience music like that.

I've no idea what song it was but if I find it I'll post it.

I really hope you're talking about the song by Def Leppard. Either way, lol.

Yesterday I listened to Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" on repeat like 15 times or something out of a masochistic need to make myself more and more emotional. I don't even have any first hand connection to the lyrics, but Dolly's vulnerability just sucks me in, and after the first few times I was literally almost bawling, and if I hadn't done the guy thing where you strangle any emotions you aren't comfortable dealing with, I probably would have broken down for real. Like, it was getting hard to breath and there was a pile of tear-soaked tissues next to me. No song has ever had that effect on me.

It was this, but a much better take than this recording.

Here's the last track that made me cry like a little bitch. For those who don't know it's about Phil Elverum's recently deceased wife.

Quote:

Death is real
Someone's there and then they're not
And it's not for singing about
It's not for making into art
When real death enters the house, all poetry is dumb
When I walk into the room where you were
And look into the emptiness instead
All fails

My knees fail
My brain fails
Words fail

Crusted with tears, catatonic and raw
I go downstairs and outside and you still get mail
A week after you died a package with your name on it came
And inside was a gift for our daughter you had ordered in secret
And collapsed there on the front steps I wailed
A backpack for when she goes to school a couple years from now
You were thinking ahead to a future you must have known deep down would not include you
Though you clawed at the cliff you were sliding down
Being swallowed into a silence that is bottomless and real

It's dumb
And I don't want to learn anything from this
I love you

Oof. I had to turn off the album first time I heard that.

This is all very heartbreaking but the music sucking total donkeyballs makes it really hard to get emotional listening to this.
