I've been revisiting Quasimoto and Come on feet just wells the froth cockles in my nog. I haven't cried at a sound for a minute in the long sense. Maybe it's because I'm kicking everything at the moment and I'm in a state.


Chairman Bodog

Actually, let's just throw this thread into 'What was the last song you cried to?'


Gregory Torso

Red House Painters - Katy Song ah fack off i'm made of BROKEN GLASS she never loved me

It's Okay To Cry by SOPHIE, which knowing the context behind it, turns its title from a suggestion to an inevitability ;_;

(Ex) Mrs. Andrew Preview getting all the notes in the right order:

"Would you care to stay a while and save my life..."

I always found Louise to be bittersweet even though there's that glimmer of hope at the end - you know it's not going to work - never go back.

And Catch reminds me of my first girlfriend. Ahh.

This one is right. Mark Kozelek is a fantastic singer/songwriter

Bittersweet by The Undertones. Beautiful song that for some reason never made it onto the Sin Of Pride LP.  I had a live bootleg of it from their last tour with Feargal for years and years until the album was re-released on CD with it and a couple of other previously-unreleased songs on it.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BedAHDXD8Tg

Madness did a cover version of it a few years ago too.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPtniEWweOg

Gillian Welch - Time, the Revelator.

Not generally a fan, but that song just gets me.

I was cruising with Dreamland today.

Even if I hate kids (?) it's a blast, brotha.
