Tim Minchin’s “White Wine in the Sun” hits me so hard I can’t listen to it when I’m driving. I bawl every time.

Almost Blue Elvis Costello
Almost blue
Almost doing things we used to do
There's a girl here and she's almost you
Almost
All the things that your eyes once promised
I see in hers too
Now your eyes are red from crying
Almost blue
Flirting with this disaster became me
It named me as the fool who only aimed to be
Almost blue
It's almost touching, it will almost do
There is part of me that's always true
Always
Not all good things come to an end
Now it is only a chosen few
I have seen such an unhappy couple
Almost me
Almost you
Almost blue
All of the Virtute The Cat songs by The Weakerthans, but Virtute The Cat Explains Her Departure in particular will make me tear up any time I hear it.

I used to do Renaissance Faires.
"Wild Mountain Thyme" was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.
It hits me like a truck every time.
Touch Starved by BB Bean.
I don't think I need to explain why...
Also whenever I listen to I'm Not Crazy by Kevin Walkman, I always tear up at "No way, I've watched that TV show you've loved since like sixth grade. I wish that we grew up together, is it too late?"
Right in the fucking heart.

Not quite the same vibe as the rest here but this song makes me feel like I could walk through a cement wall and fist fight an army
