Most emotional song you've heard?

Just a few that spring to mind:

t over you.

Fantastic symbolism and brings to mind the sadness embodied by the loss of someone - figuratively or otherwise. Oh and it's from the Gardenstate soundtrack.

Always think solo acoustic representations are so much more evocative than over embellished full blown affairs.

Massive Attack - Protection



Subject matter isn't particularly emotional. It just gets me. Enough said.



Frou-Frou - Hear me out.



For anyone going through/having been through a breakup and not willing to lie down and take it.

Less than a month after June Carter's unexpected death, Johnny Cash played his last live show, frail, almost blind, but still keeping a sense of humour and still giving everything he had to every song he sang. He died himself two months later. Watch it all, but in answer to the question, go to 14:10 and listen to him sing June's song 'Ring of Fire'. It may have since become for some a song about winning the Ashes, or beating Fulham away, but what is often overlooked is that it was always about a deep love between two people.

As a tribute to Pete Quaife, Ray Davies does 'Days' a song which I'd always seen as a eulogy, even before the grievous circumstances of Kirsty MacColl's death. When he nearly goes at the beginning, I'm left sobbing like I've just got whiskey drunk and watched the last scene of 'It's A Wonderful Life' on a permanent loop.

Many see The Proclaimers as a joke band, but I've always really liked them. For any neutral football fan, this is hard to be cynical about. The Reid brothers had previously been heavily involved in a campaign to save their club, but were away on a world tour and not there to see Hibs win the Cup for the first time in 114 years. This video must be a little consolation for them missing the game:
