"Letdown" by Radiohead. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. This song almost makes me wish I was a weepy, over-emotional teenager again. Fuck emo; this is where it's at.
"Waking Up Beside You" by Stabbing Westward. I will not entertain criticism here. This song is just too damn sad.

Another song I heard at the weekend which always brought a lump to my throat was Frankie Goes to Hollywood's 'The Power of Love'. Gorgeous

"Musette and Drums" -- Cocteau Twins. Why? It's not like the words mean anything. But when I first heard it, I was shattered. It can still do it occasionally, too.
"Good Woman" -- Cat Power. So fucking magnanimous and kind. And those kids, even Vedder. A mess, but a gorgeous one.
"The Partisan -- Leonard Cohen. So lonely (and I'm not talking about the police), so hollow and lost.
(god, look at my choices).
Some, I cry on the inside, in the same way I get inner goosebumps occasionally. Like these:
"Metal Heart" -- Cat Power"Have You Forgotten" -- Red House Painters"The Plan" -- Low"Point of Disgust" -- Low"In Metal" -- Low"Atmosphere" -- Joy Division"Decades" -- Joy Division"Faith" -- The Cure (most of that album, actually)"Sanvean" -- Lisa Gerrard"Yele" -- Wyclef Jean (!)"I Will" -- Radiohead"Wolf at the Door" -- Radiohead (plus most of Amnesiac and half of Kid A, really)(lots of Dylan and Tom Waits)(some Lucinda Williams, Neko Case, Nina Nastasia)
This could go on for a long time, so I'll stop there.

And there's a band called Sin Ropas that I've been listening to lately, and their "Syrup Coat" reduces me to tears on a regular basis.

REM's "Nightswimming". It makes me feel like a love-struck teenager on a gorgeous summer night. It makes me feel like there's something right with the world.
Serart's "Love is the Peace". This one is really all Arto Tunc Boyaciyan. I was not expecting anything nearly this gorgeous on this album. Absurdly powerful for something so sonically subdued. It took me out of my 'self' for the duration in a way I was very surprised and moved by.

antiphon by charles atlas for a number of reasons, the first time I heard them play it live, it was so heartbreakingly pretty, and so perfectly composed (they're friends), the room fell so silent, and I felt so good for them, as thought they had written the perfect lullaby. and then they let me name it.
