This song, LEGIT triggers me hardcore. Idk why. Please help me.

Even commercials make me want to cry sometimes. Usually it's not even sad either. It's just that the music fits so well with the story and it reminds me of something, usually nostalgic.

The Little Drummer Boy Christmas carol always makes me wanna cry too. I don't know, I just really like it. Gotta hold it together in the shopping centers though! xD

I don't think there's anything wrong with crying at songs or crying in general. I love crying! I love sad books, movies and songs! It's just nice to feel so affected by something sometimes. And the fact that sound can do that is really quite beautiful. :)

I've been there. The feels train beckons, but you know what kind of ride it's going to be like!

Yeah, I know of a few sad movies that get to me, also. The ending of Big Fish really burns hard on the feels, and so does Children of Men. I also know there's a bunch of movies out there that I have yet to see that I've heard cause serious emotional pings.

Some people feel it and others don't, but I think it all depends on what you think about while you're watching/listening to it and how it affects you on a personal level.

Same here, I've found time and repeated listening often numb the melancholy feelings, but traces are often still there. The songs I listed above don't cause nearly as much of an emotional burn as they used to, but at one point they did. Usually it's the lyrics, sound, and what I'm currently going through in life that tugs an emotional cord. Some of the songs I mentioned above, such as 9 Crimes and I've Changed touch on suicide while Jealous of the Angels, Where'd You Go, the Morrissey Song, and Anthem of the Angels deal with the loss of a loved one, something I was hit brutally hard with when my mom passed away. Heck, when Harry first showed me Jealous of the Angels only a short while it happened and I blogged about it, I was freaking bawling and avoided listening to that song. I couldn't stomach a second round of that.

The stuff from video games is often from the way they sound and the moment in the game where they're played. The Arnhem Knights song doesn't really have the same effect unless you've played Medal of Honor Frontline and went through the level where that song is playing and you're fighting through a village that's been absolutely brutalized by war, struggling your way through pure hell, all while watching your NPC allies get killed. Meanwhile, the whole time, you know in the back of your mind that grizzly stuff like that really did happen in World War II. It makes you choke up and feel sympathetic or angry. Some of the others can cause pings, especially if you can relate to and feel sympathetic with the characters. In Final Fantasy VII, when Aerith/Aeris dies, Cloud's quote of something along the lines of "she'll never laugh, cry, or get angry again" burn hard and deep, especially when that music is going on. You've gone through half the game with her, seeing what makes her personality up and feel like a real person, so you can sympathize with Cloud when he's holding her dead in her arms and has trouble letting her go. The same thing goes for the whole ending of PMD2. The emotions and events those characters go through are things we often see in ourselves, and that's how you connect with them.

There's nothing wrong about having melancholy feelings about stuff like that.

Personally I've never finished or even made it to that part in FFVII. I just know of the scene and that line. I can understand the whole idea on the PMD one far more having played it from start to finish so many times. Still that ending music to PMD2 hits so hard in the end

Well one example I just remembered while going through some old liked videos on Youtube was this one.

For River Back when I first watched this game, yeah even just watching it ;_;
Everything's Alright Though this one is by a fan for a fan video. Still a song from a game "To the Moon"

I've never played FFVII. /shot

But PMD affects me pretty hard. Finished the ending to PSMD the other day and needed to run for the tissue box. 3': It was so sad. Although PMD2 was sadder imo.
