I never really cried but there's this incredible feeling of sadness in the pit of my stomach when I first heard these songs:
Nobody Needs To Know (Last Five Years)
I Know The Truth (Aida)
A Little Fall of Rain (Les Miserables)
I'll Cover You (Rent)
Will I Lose My Dignity (Rent)
Memory (Cats)
For Good (Wicked)
Everyone cries during "I'll Cover You: Reprise"! I don't blame them. It is such an amazing and emotional song.

Grow Old Along with Me from LENNON (OMG, between the song and the narration in the middle, I lost it every time I heard it; and I heard it many times. Julie Danao was perfect and so was the song.

Also, if it is well-acted, "Defying Gravity" can be a bit of a tear-jerker, from the point when Elphaba flies. Jenna Leigh Green's portrayal was so spot-on that my eyes welled up with tears of joy and sympathy for Elphaba. It's a bit cheesy, but she made me really care about the character. Kudos to Jenna.

If i really sit and listen to Last 5 years "still hurting" gets to me and the end of "Goodbye until tomorrow/i could never rescue you" makes me get a bit teary eyed every time when he sings about how much he loved her and they both say goodbye. Both songs are written so beautifully and are very sad as well.

I get really sad when I listen to Goodbye love and I'll Cover you reprise...but I don't cry.
I can't liten to Without you (RENT) without crying. I like the song but I usually just skip over it because I can't handle it.
