That's what I am, a crybaby.

And today, I shall prove it by showing you a list of the fifteen songs that move me the most, be it in a happy, sad, or simply... magical way. A couple of these have made me cry. Guess which!

1. Transatlanticism - Death Cab for Cutie
This one is, very simply, the one song that I could listen to for hours without getting bored, and still, after years, I get the chills when it gets to the chorus.



2. Hey There Delilah - Plain White T's
'Nuff said.



3. The Green Fields of France - Dropkick Murphys
Yes, I'm aware it's not originally by them - I don't care. This song has two powers. One, the power to make me sleep. Two, the power to make me weep. Slweep.



4. Europa - Globus
That... well. Chills. All the time. It should be our European anthem, not that freaking stupid Ode to Joy. (See Poll of the Week.)



5. Isengard Unleashed - Howard Shore
I don't care if it's not a song. And hell, it is. It's still... it's still one of the most beautiful tracks I know.



6. One - Metallica
Just... mythical?



7. If Today Was Your Last Day - Nickelback
Given by my uncle. The first line is true. "My best friend gave me the best advice..." I'll try to live up to it. It comforts me during the rough times.



8. Mad World - Gary Jules
Another that is... itself. Will forever be associated to Donnie Darko for me, which is still one of the best movies ever made in my opinion.




9. Heiemo Og Nykkjen - Helene Bøksle
That voice... no, if there is ONE song in that list you have to listen, it is this one. She is wonderful.



10.The Scientist - Coldplay
Because... the video made me cry. Because I can sing that song loudly without fear of being heard.



11. Heaven Runs On Oil - Nightmare of You
Old one... and yet, still one of my tear inducers.



12. Now We Are Free - Lisa Gerrard and Hans Zimmer
Another movie track...and who can listen to it and not shiver?



13. I Will Follow You Into the Dark - Death Cab for Cutie
I've seen this one live. I've sung it with the crowd, and the singer of Death Cab for Cutie. It was magical, and it still is.



14. The Sound of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel
This song has the power to comfort me on dark days, when I'm walking alone.



15. Lambé an Dro - Matmatah
And this one is my regenerative potion.



There we go... that's one thing done.
