The music (and harmony vocals) of Simon and Garfunkel is often considered to be so hauntingly beautiful, much of their output can really move one to tears.

"Seven o'Clock News/Silent Night". There's just something in the juxtaposition of the calm and peaceful melody and all the violence in the news report.
Just stop and really pay attention the next time you hear "The Sound of Silence".
"Bridge Over Troubled Water" can absolutely kill some people (not literally), as does the beautiful cover version by Eva Cassidy.
"Scarborough Fair" becomes really depressing when you listen to the lyrics and realise what it actually says. Sarah Brightman's version is particularly haunting.
"Old Friends/Bookends" can bring a tear to many a person's eye -- and, as time goes on and he keeps getting older, it just gets sadder and sadder.
"He Was My Brother", made worse by the fact that it's based on a true story.
"The Boxer".
"For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her", especially the version found in their 1972 Greatest Hits album.
"The Sun Is Burning".
"Sparrow." My God, "Sparrow."
"April Come She Will"
Their version of Daniel Robles "El Condor Pasa".
