i bawled my eyes out during This Is a Low by Blur......so many memories of being 15 and desperately unhappy. It's taken me 13 years to get happy, but I've managed it now, and seeing Blur play that song  was a really special experience.

i swelled up at King Blues (who played a song for Ian Tomlinson), and later at CSN the tears were flowing.  Such beautiful people playing beautiful music.

Cried like a baby pretty much all the way through Neil Young. Cried during Cold War Kids. Cried when it was all over :angry:

I was mostly looking forward to seeing Art Brut again and seeing Nick Cave but it was Blur that got me. Managed to just about hold it but if hadn't been dark, the watery eyes would have been spotted.

It was Blur for me, 4 times! Me and my mate were sobbing on each other's shoulders at To the End, absolutely stunning performance.

One of our group cried at East 17 - it was her first time at Glasto, and she had that "I'm just so f***ing happy" moment where you just realise how bloody fantastic the whole experience is!

thursday night in stone circle, surrounded by my friends, just felt relief of being there (its been a hard year), and bawled my eyes out! hehe
welled up a few more times throughout the fest thru sheer happiness.
then cried again in the car on the way home cus a horrible lady shouted at me in the traffic jam  :lol: even though I had done nothing wrong.
(what an overly emotional cry baby lol)

Specials!
Me and my sister grew up on the stuff - was the soundtracks to the Ardeche summers we had as our parents worked in France (they have since moved here) and as soon as we hear any of it it takes us right back.
It was her first Glastonbury since 2003, we enjoyed the set so so much and as the opening notes of Ghost Town broke through You're Wondering Now I screamed. Then she screamed. Then it came on and we both screamed and I burst into tears and couldn't stop crying and laughing and singing and dancing for the whole song.

Completely unexpected and quite odd, mine was Madness "it must be love", took me by surprise but didn't do any harm. Think Madness would have been bottom of my list for booing predictions.

Bizarrely watching Quo perform In the Army Now. Didn't cry but felt a lump at the back of my throat.

Very weird - not much of a Quo fan at all and I don't even really know anyone in the military!

That's Glasto for you...

Blur's "This Is A Low" brough me pretty damn close!

And most of The King Blues' Avalon set for some reason.

Not just me then. I can not listen to that song without bubbling.

Also Waterloo Sunset  and just various moments when I was overwhelmed with joy.
