More to add later. What about you? -------------- “A dog is not intelligent. Never trust an animal that's surprised by its own farts.” - Frank Skinner Back to top

Alan D Group: Members Posts: 3670 Joined: Aug. 2004 Posted: April 16 2005, 18:30 Alanis Morissette: 'That I Would be Good' and 'Thank U' and several others. Bob Dylan: 'Mississippi' to name but one; and too many others to mention or know when to stop. Wagner: end of 'Gotterdammerung' and 'Tristan and Isolde' and lots of other sections too. Puccini: almost everything Elgar: Finales of 1st and 2nd symphonies; Chanson de Matin; etc. Really, there are too many to list. Back to top

She seems so good that she can't possibly be American. Very much like Kate Bush, too. What do you recommend the most by her? -------------- "In the land of the Dacotahs, Where the Falls of Minnehaha Flash and gleam among the oak-trees, Laugh and leap into the valley." - Song of Hiawatha Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: April 16 2005, 19:09 Hmm... Very little, but I recall "She's Leaving Home", by The Beatles. That was the closest I ever got to being truly saddened by a piece of music. Also, Radiohead's "No Surprises" is the one song that's most likely to cause me to reduce myself in tears when I'm going through really bad times. It did that once. There was one time when I dreamt I was crying to Genesis' "Supper's Ready". Very curious. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.

Every song on here is a classic. Sadly i never really enjoyed any of Ms Amos`s subsequent albums. You could try Sophie B.Hawkins too. -------------- Far away across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells Back to top

SHINE Group: Members Posts: 138 Joined: April 2003 Posted: April 17 2005, 14:39 -->"Are you going with me?"  Pat Metheny Group ( both original and live versions ) -->"Ghazal (love song)"  Tangerine Dream -->"Wolf Eyes"   Paul Winter Consort -->"Ese Amigo del Alma"  Lito Vitale ... It would be more difficult to tell the list of the tracks from a musician that has touched me with his music really inside. I'll put here just some of them: -->"The Great Adventure of an Ant on a Kite -->"Fish Bowl" -->"Ibiza Dream",  all by   Darken Ed Another one, -->"New Dimension"  by Brandon Blume. And even if it's Mike's music and this track is a mix Brandon made with music from TR3S LUNAS, I'd also like to put -->"Snow Cavern" on my list and the last one I've listenned to : -->"Winter Marches On"  Langdana Back to top

Alan D Group: Members Posts: 3670 Joined: Aug. 2004 Posted: April 17 2005, 16:34 That's an interesting thought - to add pieces from musicians who post here. Well, the following (it's not a complete list) have all produced music that has moved me to tears not merely on one occasion, but several: Langdana: Arasian Morn. In this case it produces tears of pure good feeling, not sadness. It makes me feel good to be alive. DarkenedEdo: Ommayown. The first 5 minutes of this are guaranteed to produce a lump in my throat. Ecco: Begin. This is the piece, of all pieces I've downloaded from here, that moves me most of all. Pure feeling shining through heartfelt music. It feels as if its piercing beauty might break my heart each time I listen. And this is what art is really about, for me - the communication of honest and true feeling, in such a way that, that by some strange mystery, sadness is transformed into something energising and life-giving.

As for more modern, Moby's Everloving can really do it. Nothing comes any where near Hergest Ridge though. -------------- ....second to the right and straight on till morning....

familyjules Group: Members Posts: 1190 Joined: May 2004 Posted: April 18 2005, 04:38 Every time Steve Wickham of The Waterboys picks up his fiddle and plays then I'm moved emotionally - it's like he can plug his instrument directly into my heart and my tear ducts! But I just love the Waterboys period - especially the track The Stolen Child from the Fisherman's Blues album.  It's a Yeats poem set to music and is truly truly beautiful.  Between Ommadawn and this album I became a fan of celtic folk music for life. Also Sinead O'Connor's voice always gets to me.  She sings a song a capella with an Irish singing group called Voice Squad.  The song is called In This Heart and I dare anyone to hear it and not be moved.  I love her album of Irish songs done in a modern style too, called Sean Nos Nua. REM's Michael Stipe can really move me with his voice and his lyrics also. The Who and Pete Townshend move me with their passion and that whole sense of defiance and anger turned into something expressive and beautiful. Neil Young's electric guitar playing moves me - he gets so lost in his music, so in "the zone", and when I listen to him play, then I'm right there with him. Those are my main movers (and shakers).

Alan D Group: Members Posts: 3670 Joined: Aug. 2004 Posted: April 18 2005, 09:28 It's been niggling away at me to say this ever since this thread began, and it's no good - I have to say it. The truth is that I don't usually spend time listening to music that doesn't affect me emotionally in some way. The mere technical appreciation of music, purely as music, doesn't interest me. I understand that for some people this is essential, but it has nothing to do with why I listen. So really, almost everything I listen to on a frequent basis is music that moves me emotionally.

moonchildhippy Group: Members Posts: 1807 Joined: Dec. 2004 Posted: April 18 2005, 21:35 Arrrgggghhhh!!! Isn't that so annoying!!!!  I've spent ages typing out a post, (with many interruptions), only to inadvertently, press on my mouse and lose ALL my typing,  staying up late, (I've drunk so much coffee) to try and finish my post, then I've lost it       . I would say that all music, that I CHOOSE to listen too moves me in some way, otherwise it's pointless listening too it. Earlier on, I was listening to The Who, See Me Feel Me, I like the way this starts off with Roger Daltrey's pleading,almost pitiful vocal and, it just builds into this uplifting cresendo     .  Behind Blue Eyes, IMHO Pete Townsend was writing from his heart, about pain and feeling isolated.  "Won't Get Fooled Again", great stuff, really uplifting and motivating. Methinks a good one to play when the politicians, call round asking for your vote in the forthcoming UK elections   . I'll have to type the rest out another time, so it's  Goodnight from a rather tired and frustrated Moonchildhippy . -------------- I'm going slightly mad, It finally happened, I'm slightly mad , just very slightly mad If you feel a little glum to Hergest Ridge you should come. I'm challenging  taboos surrounding mental health "Part time hippy" I'M SUPPORTING OUR SOLDIERS BRING OUR TROOPS HOME NOW!! Back to top
