Alabama, John Coltrane. Any song about little girls getting blown up by racists is sure to make you a little weepy.

For starters:

Billy Bragg's "The Great Leap Forwards."
The Pogues' version of "Waltzing Matilda" (well, any version, really, but theirs especially).
Seize the Day, "United States."

I lurve this song.

The Pogues' version of "Waltzing Matilda" (well, any version, really, but theirs especially).

Even the Tom Waits version?
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Listening to Stockhausen's Kontakte made me sad today.
