NiN - Hurt.

Simon and Garfunkel - Sound of Silence.

Long time Nine inch nails fan. Love everything he’s done.

Hear Johnny Cash do Hurt.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Yeah that song hits quite hard

Whenever I hear Baby Shark, I get very emotional.

If "Cat's In The Cradle" doesn't get you, you are not a father.

"Hits hard" may be subjective and situational, but I guess it can be interpreted as emotionally touches you?

• Lissie - Pursuit of Happiness (Live at Brighton Great Escape 2010)
• The Cranberries - Zombie
• Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen
• The intro soundbit on Infinity Train
• The episode intros of Jobless Reincarnation ("Mushoku Tensei") (song with video mix) - always with episode relevant content, showing the world, incredible world-building, with its amazing harmonic conclusion)

Ugly Kid Joe - Cats in the Cradle

I'm currently re-aligning my entire life with the goal of not becoming the dad in this song.

Selena - No Me Queda Más

Arctic Monkeys - 505

Eminem - Headlights

GnR - November Rain

Halo intro sound track.

Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley.

And, as mentioned, Mr Cash's haunting and painful rendition of Hurt.

So, I almost never listen to this song because somehow it always makes me so so sad. I am a metal guy, I love heavy shit, from Kill'Em All to Watch The World Burn; but an old friend passed me this song once and it broke me into pieces.

It's the saddest lullaby ever.

I recommend this fan-made lyric video specially for those who don't have English as first language. I find it funny that it doubles on views the original song.

Terrible Things, by Mayday Parade.

Cats in the Cradle - Harry Chapin

I'm doing my best to not let my life be like the song, but that's tough...

Last Kiss by Pearl Jam

Pink Floyd - High Hopes

I have so many, but today I was listening to the radio and was really getting into Elton John's "I'm Still Standing", Heart's "Crazy On You", and Peter Schilling's "Major Tom". It was truly a good day on the radio.

Ghost - Badflower

99 Red Balloons - Nena

Linkin Park - One More Light

Bob Dylan - Dirge

For me, I've gotta say "Machine Messiah", by Yes. It's one of the longest, and most interesting songs I've heard. Most songs have just one "mood" explored in them, but this one shifts from joyous to melancholy and back multiple times, and does so perfectly. Plus, I'm very nostalgic about it since it was one of my favorite songs as a child. Drama was the one of the first two albums I bought as a kid, almost entirely because that one song was on it. (Also--is that a Sonic pfp, op? A person of culture, I see 😉)

Bones in the Water by Battle of Mice. I've never heard that level of unhinged screaming in my life. Plus it's creepy as fuck

Charles Bradley’s cover of Changes by Black Sabbath.

He sings it dedicated to his mom and that gets me every time.

Toy Soldiers by Martika

Everclear - Everything to Everyone

It has one of my favorite lines in a song ever: "I think you are blind to the fact that the hand you hold is the hand that holds you down."

Great post idea! My list is based mostly on nostalgia for a certain period of time in my life:

Fog (again) - Live - Radiohead

Pyramid Song - Radiohead

Fake Empire - The National

Hurt - Johnny Cash

Headlong - The Frames

Scattered Black and Whites - Elbow

Grace Under Pressure - Elbow

Starálfur - Sigur Rós

Hoppípolla - Sigur Rós

October - U2

Bôa - Duvet (Acoustic Version), it's an alternate version of the opening song to the fantastic show Serial Experiments Lain. I don't have any particularly impactful memories associated with it, but for some reason it just gets me feelin. Night walks with this song just hit different.

Holy diver man

Also do the evolution and hellraiser

Pink Floyd - marooned.

Kill 'em All era Metallica, or the MTV acoustic Alice in Chains.

Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen

Ocean Lab - Breaking Ties (https://youtu.be/g13nsQaCxbg )

Great breakup song if you want to just let it out

John Farnham - Help (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dv54giOSRKs )

This is a cover of the Beatles song. Very different vibe to the original

Realising now my music tastes are a bit weird...

Wake me up when September ends

Lay low. Tiesto.

Summer beach when I was young. Carefree. Good looking. Partying. Ahhhh the good ol days. 😀

I always hail back to Marmalade and "Reflections of My Life."

The Other Side by Public Service Broadcasting really drew me in the first time I listened to it.

Also Open Your Eyes by Snow Patrol gives me the feels for some reason.

The Taxpayers - Go Fetch a Priest

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=3NAbXIGkUhg

Love Bomb - fromis_9

Self Destruct - kublai khan tx

Libet's delay - the caretaker

No children - mountain goats

yukikosan - midori (NSFW ALBUM COVER)

All songs that hit hard for different reasons... for me

Ambrosia - Holdin' on to Yesterday

All three "parts" of Metallica - The Unforgiven God, those lyrics...
