Guest bugbread Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Ok, is it just me, or do other people here get moved to tears by really good music? I don't mean sad or languid tears, I mean smile so big it almost touches your ears, tears dropping down your face pure joy tears. It's especially embarrassing when I end up crying on the train. So is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bomble Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 yeah - I have been moved to tears by quite a few pieces of music. Generally I am not talking about floods of tears, but more a watering like when you are suddenly overwhelmed by the beauty of the world or have a mystical experience. A lot of really well crafted and emotional chill stuff does it to me - Shpongle of course, but more things like Drift's Arc en ciel, FSOL's my kingdom, MOTY, Subsurfing's frozen ants etc etc. Some really awesome dancefloor stuff has taken me there too, as well as classical and modern classical music (Steve Reich's music for 18 musicians etc.) It is a really wonderful experience that a bunch of air molecules oscillating could transmit such spiritual power. bomble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vasyachkin Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 sometimes, but never on the train )) last time it happened when i was tweaking my equalizer settings to make the synthlines come out better (NO I DON'T MAKE MUSIC, I HAVE EQUALIZER ON PLAYBACK) after i have finally managed to get the sound i was trying to get and i listened one more time i was crying )) it wasn't really the music, it was the sound.

khogg Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 Yeah, Mai Mai love it. Shpongle did this to me today while I was watching it rain outside. Or the other day, it was sunny. I was reclining on the deck with a cold beer, listening to Green House Effect on headphones, watching a bee fly around. Suddenly, I was overwhelmed by all of (in a good way)! That time a tear actually rolled down my cheek. It seems to be a combination of the music and everything else in that particular moment.

Guest vasyachkin Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 when the sound is right, and it actually starts to separate from the speakers and walk around the room by itself - it can bring me to tears of joy )) doesn't happen often though, well-produced record is a must.

Guest bugbread Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 Glad it isn't just me I love a lot of types of music, but for some reason it seems, for the most part, psy and epic are the only ones that do that to me. Probably because it's not serene tears of beauty but tears from extreme joy, excitement, and energy. And, yeah, like Bomble said, it's not a gushing fountain or anything, it's a few tears per eye. Usually accompanied (if I'm at home) by shouting "Yes!!" or some other similar happy nonsense. I'm starting to think this is why people at parties ALWAYS think I'm on something, even if I'm not. By the way, I try to refrain from shouting at parties, unless everyone around me is as well (don't want to spoil other people's moods). But it's a wonderful feeling when some tune is so upper and excited that everyone around is shouting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spectral Collapse Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 I was in bed one night falling alseep. You know that moment when you are still conscious but you are about to drift off.... that moment was upon me. I had The future sound of london cd Lifeforms (disk 1) in my cd player. It was the first time I had listened to it but i wasn't really paying attention because i was tired. Right when i was about to fall asleep... the song dead skin cells came on (track 5). I thought i was in a dream. I sat up and opened my eyes.. everything around me seemed almost surreal... like I was floating through some distant etheral plane of existence. It is the most beautiful song i've ever heard in my entire life... and although i didn't cry... it was one of the defining moments of my life that i will remember until i die. Everyone should hear that song.... so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest psywarrior Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 I have been brought to tears by music quite a few times. It is somewhat rare but when it happens I know I am listening to a masterpiece of music. Some songs that have brought me to tears are: Infected Mushroom - Symphonatic, Future Prophecy - Indra Remix, Oforia - Special Ofer, X-dream - Do You Believe, Hallucinogen - LSD, Shpongle - Divine Moments of Truth, Quirk - Mystic Linguistic, Pleiadians - Maia. To name a few..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bugbread Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 Psywarrior: score! The reason I wrote this post when I did is that I had just listened to Symphonatic and had to wipe saltwater off my glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
