Voltaire (musician)/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

This performer has a few rather sad songs.

  • "Anastasia" (is about a real girl who was killed at age 17)
  • "The Accordion Player" will tug on your heartstrings.
  • Those two are nothing compared to "Feathery Wings". One's heart can break upon hearing this line near the end of the song:

"Don't leave me here, I hate it here!"

  • "Crusade".
  • The last verse of "The Beast of Pirate's Bay".
  • "Underground"
  • "Born Bad".
  • "This Sea", anyone?
  • The end of "Blue Eyed Matador" tends to have this troper on the verge of expressing emotion.
  • "Dunce".
  • "All the Way Down" *breaks into tears*
  • "Almost Human". It kind of makes you want to give the devil a hug.
  • "The Chosen"? Also High Octane Nightmare Fuel. Brrrr.
  • "No. 1 Fan" can turn some people into a sobbing mess.
  • "Churchyard" from his new album. The last part "No one should find out what it's like/ Standing here, not having the means/To buy the medicine to save their lives." in particular really got to This Troper.
  • "Goodnight Demon-slayer" is definitely bittersweet enough to be a Tear Jerker.
  • "The Ship's Going Down" makes you feel sad the people lives abruptly and can't say goodbye to their loved ones.
  • The end of "When the Circus Came to Town" is so bad, it gave him difficulty recording the lines.
