Moulin Rouge Soundtrack, at least about half of it anyway, will leave me streaming.  But I'm nerdy. ;D

... Me too actually. ;D
Don't be scared to fly alone, find a path that is your own
Love will open every door it's in your hands, the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know, all the answers will unfold
What are you waiting for, spread your wings and soar

Gianni Nannini - I Maschi



A song by Italy's most famous female singer apparently about men but IMO about her own struggle with gender issues.


Amanda Lear - No Regrets



Rubbish but self explanatory


Ismael Lo - La Femme Sans Haine



OMG! I had such a crush on him even if I like girls!

steven merritt can also get me boo-ing at the right times...I think one of the saddest songs ever is 'only making plans for nigel' by xtc.



there is also this cover by nouvelle vague which is less manically sad, more despondently sad.

Bob Dylan's "Like A Rolling Stone" can hit a certain nerve in me, and I have no idea why. It's the same with Blind Melon's "No Rain".

I used to hate "Like a Rolling Stone" when I was young. There's something unmusical and almost dirty about it. Then one day when I was maybe 23 and I had no clue what I was doing in life, I heard it on the radio as I was driving home one day and I suddenly understood it, the glorious despair of the music.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.

Most recently would be Enya.  Her songs either make me feel very good or very sad.  Either way, she can make me cry.

Me too.  The songs are really emotional though.  I should say they make me want to cry.  I don't usually cry, but when I do, it's as likely that I'm crying from happiness as it is sadness.  :D  I also get emotional when things are too beautiful.

Gloomy Sunday.  I really like Emily Autumn's version.
