Re: Songs that will make you cry...
Samuel Barber's 'Adagio For Strings' (not some crappy remix)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV3SHBFyDZM
in my mind, the most beautiful and heartfelt piece of music ever written. You simply cannot imagine a movement like this without it coming from the heart. the saddest piece of music. this video does it no justice. you really need to hear it live to feel the pain and heartbreak in there.

Works better with shots from Platoon imo.
On a 'positive' note: I'll contribute two polar extremes:
My 'best song ever' for a couple of decades: New Dawn Fades by Joy Division.
And a wonderful love song by Leonard Cohen through the lovely voices of the Webb Sisters. This sent shivers down my spine when I had the privilege of seeing it performed live.

I couldn't comment - never seen Platoon. I find the piece one of those 'shut-your-eyes-and-listen' ones. it doesn't need imagery imo. it detracts I feel, which is why I mentioned listening to it live.
