Ahh i forgot about Spiritualized last year at John Peel when they played Shine A Light it just hit me like a ton of bricks especially the line

"when i'm lonesome, as can be, lord shine a light, on me"

Probably a few but one that springs to mind was watching Edwyn Collins determined struggle to walk onto the Park Stage with his walking stick a couple of year ago. He delivered a fantastic set. Would have brought a tear to a glass eye.

Joan Armatrading a few years back on the Jazz Stage. During Love and Affection I came over all ttired and emotional. So good.

Only cried once at a gig, Spiritualized performing Accoustic Mainlines at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall and that was after a particularly hard break-up with the mother of my child who I'd been with for over twelve years. J Spaceman singing I Think I'm In Love was just too much to bear, made me feel like death.

What did cheer me up was hearing someone with a thick Black Country accent say "I cor believe I spent fifteen pound ter yav me sole tor aport"

When Damon broke down after 'To The End' at Blur last year, had a tear in my eye as well. Perfect night.

i can think of plenty just listening at home, but none at glastonbury oddly.

if i have, it was maybe at regina, like chaz.

Blazin' Fiddles Avalon tent 2 years ago. Something about a well constructed piece for multiple violins somewhow makes all the dust fly into my eye.

[Harrow Strongbow Ciderman!]

I get the feeling once I've put my tent up and I sit down with a drink watching other people arrive, watching it all develop around me, watching my friends laughing and joking.

I get it during an act, randomly, when it suddenly hits me how beautiful it all is.

I get it when sat up at the stones looking out over the site.

I get it on the Monday when driving off site.

Joan Baez singing 'There But For Fortune' in the Acoustic Tent had me in floods of tears. A big bloke next to me put his arm round my shoulder and asked "Are you OK mate?" I thanked him for asking and blubbered: "It's just beautiful."

I love music that moves me and touches emotions, either of great happiness or sadness.

For me its got to be Pete doherty during albion in 2008 at the park stage. Yes I was off my face on all sorts but everything came together and it was just soooo beautiful..

[jollynolly]

The Verve "The Drugs don't work", a sniveling wreck crying in the dirt, I had to be helped up by 2 coppers who cuddled me looking very bemused as I sobbed "It's beautiful"

The two 'moments' that stick in my mind are watching Elbow, with a big bunch of eFesters but without Rabid (he wasn't at G that year). The moment Guy Garvey started singing I just dissolved. I was so incredibly happy being where I was, surrounded by friends, but the one person I really wanted to be with right there & then was hundreds of miles away.

The other 'moment' was Rolf singing "Two Little Boys". I can never hear that song without getting very teary. (I even burst into tears when we were chatting about Sir Rolf's songs at !) There's just something about that song.

blimey, you "Get IT" regular dontcha!??!

Bon Iver the wolves at the park last year.
