Well it’s good to let it out sometimes. Being a guy, the difficulties of my life don’t usually make me cry-unless I’ve hit some breaking point/too much to bear. But I’ll confess when I hear a beautiful song, I do tear up and can’t control it. I mean if it’s great music, not like the meaningless, terrible filth we hear today on the radio/net.
it actually was caused by a beautiful song that wasn’t new to me, nor old, but never got me to tear. i think i’ve reached a certain level of depression my body had to ‘bleed’ to survive.
Precisely, death bunny. We all need to vomit up the poison of life sometimes. Crying is the vomiting of the soul. Be thankful that you can, brave lad. That music can raise feelings in you of the tender kind means you have a heart, something more should have these days.
Personally, I love Chopin and the Stones. But the Stones don’t make me cry.
Yes, she was Mick’s girlfriend for a time. I was in my 20s during the 60s. So it all happened as I was growing and unfolding. A confusing and painful time, Vietnam and all. My brother was in the Marines and I was a suicidal flower child. He later kicked me out of his life. But the music, the changes . . . I feel it all starting again with the ‘Black lives matter’ movement.

thank you. you should try listening to marianne faithfull’s ‘as tears go by’ covering the stones. i think her version can actually make “tears go by”.
