* John Martyn dedicated the song (and album) "Solid Air" to his friend Nick Drake, who was suffering from depression (and would, tragically, end up committing suicide a year later).
-->''I know you, I love you\\
I'll be your friend\\
I could follow you, anywhere\\
Even through solid air.''
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQs6MvsPCXA "May You Never"]] also qualifies:
-->''And may you never lay your head down\\
Without a hand to hold\\
May you never make your bed out in the cold.\\
\\
You're just like a great strong brother of mine\\
You know that I love you true\\
And you never talk dirty behind my back\\
And I know that there's those that do.''

** A good number of John's have the same effect, to be honest. Especially ''I Am What I Am''.

** The 12-minutes version of Bad in the 1985 Live Aid concert. Why so long, you ask? Halfway through the song, Bono noticed a teenage girl being pinned against the railings, and is in danger of getting crushed. He notified the audience and the security, who pulled her out and into the front of the whole audience, where he hugged the young lady and danced along to the song with her for a while. The way this matches up with the music makes it an incredibly beautifully surreal moment that helped define the concert and powered their rise to superstardom.

* ''Home By Now/No Matter What'' by MeatLoaf. What starts out as downright depressing music, suddenly becomes uplifting, telling of how the woman he's singing to, despite all odds, has saved him. It hits its peak here:
---> No matter who they follow
---> No matter where they lead
---> No matter how they judge us
---> I'll be everyone you need
---> No matter if the sun don't shine
---> Or if the skies are blue
---> No matter what the ending

* "Don't Come The Cowboy With Me, Sonny Jim", by Kirsty [=MacColl=]. It starts off with the singer's [[TheSnarkKnight cynical]], [[{{Kuudere}} jaded]] lament about the way guys have [[StoicWoobie used her]] and [[BrokenBird treated her like dirt]]. The heartwarming part comes as we find out she's addressing the latest man in her life - and finding [[DefrostingIceQueen she can finally let her feelings show]] when she realises she's not the only one trying to hide them.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XXfqPRG4TQ The song "After Hours" by We Are Scientists]]. The combination of the upbeat guitar and the lovely string pieces is impeccable, and makes a song about always wanting to be with someone near perfect. There's a violin swell near the middle that simply steals the breath.

** Or the lesser-known "Work," especially with the video of all the college students getting interviewed.



***This troper literally BURST INTO TEARS when he heard "To The Sky," the theme song he did from Legend of the Guardians. There are Beach Boys songs that aren't that happy!



***{{YMMV}} This troper already had negative feeling about guitar-driven power ballads, but after working a summer job at an amusement park where they played them nonstop, that song is a particular pet peeve of mine.

*As a native New Yorker, this toper gets very emotional during both "New York State of Mind" by Billy Joel and "Empire State Of Mind" by Jay-Z, easily the two best songs about the greatest damn city on earth (and don't get me started on that stupid Frank Sinatra song).
*We can all agree that most [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ptitleaq93ou7hn02v?from=Main.Spongebobsquarepants Spongebob Squarepants]] episodes haven't been that good post-movie, but the song during "Where's Gary?" is quite moving, especially to those of us who may have lost a pet in real life.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP-t87yIhOE "Still"]], Alanis Morissette's theme song from Dogma. Maybe a little touchy for those not to fond of the g-word, but the lyrics are great at depicting a forgiving G-d who loves his/her children in spite of all the horrible things they do.
--->I see you altering history
--->I see you abusing the land
--->I see you and your selective amnesia

*[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvbCV6E0Wro "Perpetuum Mobile" by Penguin Cafe Orchestra]], even if it does sound like music for a life insurance commercial. Even more {{WAFF}} when played in the movie "Mary & Max."
*[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-fyNgHdmLI "My Sacrifice" by Creed]], this troper's introduction to one of his favorite bands and one of the few power ballads he truly loves (which is saying something, since they reunited to do power ballads he can't stand).
*"A Little More Homework," from the obscure broadway show "13." A charming song about growing up that gets this troper even now that he's in collage.
