I'm a man...and I've cried over music. (albums, solo)

I definitely have, by numerous songs actually. Sometimes it's when I'm a tad stoned, and it's just so profound and moving that it just comes out.

I wouldn't have expected it to be Poles Apart, though I'm curious, why'd you cut the Floyd?

Maybe just a dfferent time in my life. I smoked ALOT more at that point and then a few years ago we started playing more surf acoustic style and I emmersed myself in that genre (Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, etc.)

Now that we are pretty solid at playing that type o music, I listen to alot of brit-rock, alt rock, and actually some rap.

Wierd how taste in music changes over the years.

The best song to probably cry to is Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

Not anymore. I find it hard to imagine any music would have that kind of effect on me now but to say it never has would be a lie. In the past (during school years mostly) music has proven quite theraputic for me in a way that I could use it to deal with things going on around me. I could use it to make me feel an absolute million times worse to come through the other side feeling better, if that makes any sense.

In a way I have never understood that because not even my grandad's funeral got that reaction from me around the same time but music for some reason could.

I havent been able to do that, or maybe just havent had any need to do that for a long time now. Music doesnt seem to hit me that way anymore.

I can't cry.
Correction: I don't cry. It's not my choice, but I don't. I've tried forcing myself to cry and my eyes get wet and my face gets red but nothing flows down.

I'm not meant for the movies.

Also, I heard that crying is for pussies, and this thread deals with crying so I thought there would be pussies... but there are non. Where are the pussies?
