"Love Hurts" by Nazareth

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2BjJbKQkgc

It does hurt. And if you're hurting in such a way, this song will break you into. . .little. . .tiny. . .pieces.

9/19/2009 4:17:19 AM

for me...

Annie Lennox--Why
Grateful Dead--Morning Dew
Across the Universe soundtrack--Let it Be...the choir gives me goosebumps
Amazing Grace...always.
Live--Lightning Crashes
Marvin Gaye--What's Going On

Europe - Final Countdown

9/19/2009 11:29:30 AM

for me:

Eva Cassidy "I know you by heart" cry
October Project "Falling farther in" goosbumps
Billy Joel "She's got a way" almost cry
Wagner "Ziegfried's Death" goosbumps
[ it's from some opera, but if you remember the ending of "Excalibur" that's it]

and the National Anthem, when sung properly = goosbumps

I, too, saw this live. I couldn't hear for days afterwards.


Arcade Fire - Intervention (prefer the one from KCRW, but the album version is good, too)
NMH - In the Aeroplane over the Sea / Ghost (chills. every time)

9/19/2009 12:28:43 PM

I'll have more to add later when I have time to think about this.

Radiohead - How to Disappear Completely is one that comes readily to mind.

9/19/2009 1:31:12 PM

joanna newsom - sawdust & diamonds
kills me

9/19/2009 1:33:17 PM

I couldn't pick just one Elliott Smith song to add to this. Between the Bars is a worthwhile addition to this list.

Bon Iver - Blood Bank
Bon Iver - Skinny Love

Pretty much anything Justin Vernon does, actually.

Peter Jones - Kilkelly, Ireland

9/20/2009 10:24:32 PM

I also agree with "In My Life"

Sigur Ros -- "Olsen, Olsen"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2GjOC79gVI

Elliott Smith -- "All Cleaned Out"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cj3zEUSQVi4

the Gary Jules version of "Mad World" from Donnie Darko
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N3N1MlvVc4

Big Star -- "thirteen"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pte3Jg-2Ax4

Pink Floyd -- "wish you were here"

Okkervil River -- "red" ... god, I love that song. Too bad not many folks have heard it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al3VN0iZFsc

I think I could list this shit all day long, but those were some that came to mind. The Big Star one probably popped up only because I've been listening to them lately.
