YES. to Joanna Newsom.

Cat Power and NMH also do it for me, but more with these songs:


(at the "I could stay here, become someone different..." part)

and


(at "And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying...")

Others that leap to mind:


[edit: well the last one won't work, but it's "Walking on a Wire" by Richard & Linda Thompson]

A lot more. I kind of get teary-eyed more than I'd like to cop to.
