3 Libras by A Perfect Circle comes to mind

Well define "Emotional".

But anyway.

Have a gander at this.

Ecstacy of Gold

Lux Aeterna

Thats good, but the Lord of the Rings: Two Towers remix is the superior version.

*Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Knees and Toes;
Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Knees and Toes;
A-and eyes and ears and mouth and nose;
Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Knees and Toes*

So many memories. I think.

Maria Callas singing La Mamma Morta from Andrea Chernier. Featured prominently in the film Philadelphia (so temporally appropriate), and even without those associations, massively emotional. The below video is from the Philadelphia scene.

Brand New--Milestone
I used to be such a burning example,
I used to be so original.
I used to care, I was being cared for.
Made sure I showed it to those that I love.

I used to sleep without a single stir,
'Cause I was about my father's work.

Well Take me out tonight,
The ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A milestone around my neck,
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

I used to pray a God was listening.
I used to make my parents proud.
I was the glue that kept my friends together,
Now they don't talk and we don't go out.

I used to know the name of every person I kissed.
Now I made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it.

Take me out tonight,
The ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A milestone around my neck,
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

Throw me that lifeline,
The ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A milestone around my neck
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

Never hit the brakes
There's no time to save him,
He's run out in the street
Anybody know his name?
I think I recognize him
(Sure it's him?)
He's paid for that mistake

Woah,
Woah.

So take me out tonight.
The ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A millstone around my neck.
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

To save my life tonight.
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
A Milestone around my neck
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give

Into Dust by Mazzy Star

Sgt. Mackenzie

Edit: Damn Thanatos, that song makes me misty.

**Dylanesque** · December 04, 2007, 10:04 AM

Love in Vain by Robert Johnson. This man's voice rattles your bones. Sadly I can't find a video with it.

**Thanatos** · December 04, 2007, 10:36 AM

I knew it would touch you, kev-o. It's a sad song.

**Markas** · December 04, 2007, 02:19 PM

A hymn to be accurate but still... If I ever did weep over a piece of music (and I cry pure liquid malevolence) it would have been this one.

If I get to Heaven I hope they do requests.
