I was just listening to Bad Dream on Keane's album Under The Iron Sea and it seriously brought me to tears. So many of those songs on that album really touch something in my heart that can make me cry.

Any bands out there that bring out similar emotions in you?

It's not the band or singer, just this particular song and the way she sings it.



I Love You

Because they're so good, or because they're so bad?

I find her voice quite haunting and the whole Waterbearer album is simply magnificent.

Not band so much as certain songs. Child's Song by Tom Rush is a killer...I first heard it as I was leaving home for college and it just blew me away, still does today. For some reason the Thomas Dolby song I Live in a Suitcase also gets me.

Well actually, you nailed it.
Keane does that to me- here's one that's got an intense effect on me....
I usually can't/won't even listen to it or I just......yeah.

What band can bring you to tears?

I cry for the future of rock music every time I hear Nickleback on the radio. Does that count?
