Line 279:
* [[Fallout]] fans unite: The Inkspots took melancholy to an art form. "Maybe", "I Don't Want to Start the World on Fire", and "If I Didn't Care". Mix and match with 50's nuclear apocalypse, art deco, underwater distortions, and objectionism. Keep a tissue handy as well.
* Out of ''all'' of Fiction Junction YUUKA's songs, the one that might make cry the most is "Hitomi no kakera" - although, "Akatsuki no kuruma" is also quite the tear jerker.
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-kpR32B-Uk World]" by [[Five For Fighting]], and, and this can double as a [[Live
** Five for Fighting's "Superman", cliche or not, can also get some people choked up during it.
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHnT908mp3U This video makes it a million times worse. * SNIFF* ]
Line 512:
* Annie Lennox's rendition of Cole Porter's "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye". Especially the video.
** "Why" is also pretty heartwrenching, considering the lyrics.
** "Into The West" is pretty and sad at the same time and more so if you put it in context with what happened at the end of the third ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' movie. It won best original song at the 2003 Academy Awards.

* English folk punk group The Levellers offer "Another Man's Cause", a tragic account of a young soldier marching off to war in the footsteps of his dead father and brother.
Line 1,123:
* [[Lou Reed]] managed to create a whole [[Tear Jerker]] ''album'' with ''Berlin''
