Posted: 8/16/05 at 1:54amI was really sick a few weeks ago, and was on lots of drugs, so I was watching the Rosie O'Donnel Bio on E (I think) and when she won the Emmy award, everyone was crying and I was like why am I crying at this...This happend 10 years ago.

I cry every time I hear "I Want to Save You" by Something Corporate.
I also cry to "Baby" by Lost and Found
In the past, I have cried to "I'm Not That Girl" from Wicked.
Do not mock me.

I guess it's normal to cry during extreme makeover: home edition, I also do every sunday. I guess they're doing something right.
Sadly, I cried during "the sisterhood of the travelling pants" movie.

"i saw philidelphia at school, and i cried, but the part that made me cry more was after he died when they showed clips form when he was little, growing up and stuff. that made the charecter real to me, showing that."
I know exactly what you mean. I thought it was weird that I didn't cry at all when he was sick or when he died, but when they showed the home movies, I just lost it. I once stupidly downloaded Neil Young's "Philadelphia" and every time it comes up on my computer, I dive to change it before it gets me started.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 4:27amI cried during "Shrek". Every single time. At the end of the movie, when Fiona is "transformed" and is all, "But...but...I was supposed to be beautiful." and Shrek replies, "But you are beautiful." In fact, I'm almost teary-eyed just recalling it.

Cried during the curtain call of opening night for the production of Ragtime I just finished up... my first standing ovation
Also, the only book I've ever cried reading... "Dancing Naked" *sniff* Why couldn't she keep the baby and raise it with her gay best friend!

Posted: 8/16/05 at 10:16amI'm bawling now just reading this thread.

I burst into tears crying at the movie theatre the other evening during a preview-- a PREVIEW-- for this documentary about these kids entering in a ballroom dance competition. *shakes head* It was so embarrassing.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 3:44pmI honestly don't cry for anything, not even Extreme Makeover: Home Edition... but some strange reason I cried for the movie Honey [with Jessica Alba in it].

the Seussical OBC made me teary.
I was sobbing during "Superstar" - yes, the goofy Molly Shannon movie - where *spoiler* you think she's picking the Will Ferrel character as opposed to the other one. I yelled at my screen "No! The other guy really likes you!" I felt ridiculous.
Stepmom made me cry when I first saw it.
I'll have to second choral music - it can be just so indredibly touching.

Posted: 8/17/05 at 11:16pm"Hello. My name is John Merrick." - The Elephant Man. Has anyone else seen this beautiful movie?! It makes me cry everytime I watch it.

Posted: 8/17/05 at 11:19pmThe day Clinton was impeached by the House, I cried. I knew that our Constitution was turned on its head on that day.

I don't know why but I am listening to the Fantasticks and I just started to cry because of Jerry Orbach...it's weird because I have listened to it plenty of times since he passed away but I've never cried over it.
I cried a couple of months ago when my son went on a carnival ride all by himself...

I was watching "Beauty and the Beast" the other day with my dad. After Gaston stabs the Beast, Belle is crying over is body and she closes her eyes and utters, "I love you."
.... I. Started. Bawling!!!!
It was awful... I couldn't control it.
If my father hasn't figured out I'm gay after that display....

Posted: 8/18/05 at 1:53amIn addition to several scenes from The Elephant Man, the dinner scene in Signs also comes to mind. Very nicely done.

weird crying moments for me...hmmmm...
the first time I saw Phantom in Toronto I cried like a baby, starting 15minutes before it started, when I sat down in my chair, until it was over. I'm not really all that into Phantom but I was just so excited to be there and seeing it b/c my cousins went EVERY summer to see it and would talk about it...
I cried my face off watching Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants...again, pretty much through the entire film...
I think my number one "Why the F$ck am I crying over this?" moment was when Donna and David got married on the last episode of 90210...

My first standing ovation with the Michigan State Camp chorus (my choir doesn't get standing ov's)
You can't stop the beat, but that's for personal reasons.
I bawl every time I'm at POTO. Just because Gary Mauer is so ****ing amazing, and he pulls off the brilliant hurt genius so well. Oh God, I'm tearing up just thinking about it.
And I cried when I drove by myself for the first time, but again because of personal reasons.
