Most Emotional Song?
 
Now, Emo has cast a negative light on just about all music with any scrap of emotion, but a good ol' power-ballad or even just a sad song still pwnz. What do y'all think are the most emotion-filled yet good songs ever?

Ruby Tuesday - The Rolling Stones
Here I Go Again - Whitesnake
House of Pain - Faster Pussycat
Anything off of Pink Floyd's The Wall
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Carmelita - Warren Zevon

I've got a whole list but I think what everyone picks as their most emotional song has more to do with what (or who) they associate it with.

But, just for fun, here's my number one:
Tomorrow, Wendy by Concrete Blonde actually a sad song that reminds me of a good friend who died of AIDS.

"Calling All Angels" - Jane Siberry

That was the song at the end of "Pay it Forward" after the kid is shot and all of the people are gathering for a vigil in front of his mother's house.

I'm still not sure if it was the song or the movie that might have caused a tear or two.:bawling:

Another is The Foggy Dew, which, while not the official anthem of Ireland, can probably be considered the same as "America the Beautiful" is here, although it is definitely more bellicose. If two people sing it at the same time, it's a duet. If ten people sing it at the same time, it's a brawl. If twenty or more people sing it at the same time, it's a revolution.
