Day Sixteen~A song that makes you cry

What?! Seriously? A song that makes me cry. I typically don't cry at songs. Never. really. Once or twice in my life time, but I can't remember them right now.  So not never, but hardly ever. In my family I am probably the last to cry in my family. Typically I do not cry at things that a straight sad, or straight happy either. I am the type of person who only cries when the situation is poignant and bitter sweet, and when I am in the right mood. I find I better enjoy movies or books with the type of ending I just described. When it comes to songs there are the ones that make me feel sad, but as much as I love music, I tend not to get emotionally attached to it. If you told me to pick a song that inspired me, I would be hard pressed to find one like that as well. Or one that made me happy, once again, I would be hard pressed.

There are songs though, that are soooooooo bad they make me want to cry. This includes Whisky Lullaby, (sorry KatySue, but I simply find this song stupid,) Don't Take the Girl, Trap Doors in the Floor of Heaven, (all these songs are suppose to be poignant but I just find them funny,) and Before He Cheats, (honestly, were they going for ridicules and tacky in the music video?)Then pretty much any Lady Gaga song, (the name of the artist makes me want to cry,) or Katy Perry.

Oh, and You are my Sunshine. I bet you are thinking, that song makes you cry? Look it up. Make sure it is the Johnny Cash version. Once again, suppose to be sad, but I don't find it as such.
