I can play it and "Changes" pretty well. The complex piano accompaniment on "Life on Mars?" makes it tough to sing at the same time, though.

Recorded music has never given me an intense emotional reaction--when I'm playing it, different story--with the exception of a couple songs, but I'm assuming that will come with age/life experience.

Really? Not even the beach boys 'Don't talk'?

that song is beautiful, it feels like 1 on 1 love confession.

Only five pieces of recorded music have produced tears for me:

Beach Boys - the whole childhood suite in the middle of SMiLE, but especially "Surf's Up".
Beatles - "The Long and Winding Road"
Gordon Lightfoot - "If You Could Read My Mind"
Billy Joel - "Everybody Has a Dream"
and Pachelbel's Canon.

"If You Could Read My Mind" is the only guaranteed tear jerker.

However, it's notable that I cried with sheer delight when I heard the first few notes of "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" in Billy's live show.

OK, this is weird, that was exactly a year ago today pretty much to the minute.

The only time music has driven me to tears was when I listened to TMR right after Beefheart died. I was thinking that nobody would reach that level of great music ever again (even though he was inactive for thirty years leading up to his death).

"long winding road" and "How?" sound really similar. i tried listening to "If you could read my mind" but couldn't cause YT is being a bitch atm..

Though it doesn't make me cry i find Kurt Vile "Baby's arms" to be very emotionally powerful. especially if you just had a breakup or miss your gf.

the studio version though doesn't move me though, it's his is solo acoustic rendition that does it for me

Yes, you will only become more emotionally open and expressive as you get older.

You'd know nothing about that, though.
