So, list them, and why.
The only songs that have ever made me cry are-
Everybody Hurts- REM. I was in a drama production a while ago, and the climax was this totally depressing mass suicide (I know, it sounds lame. The way I describe it always is.) scene to that song. My grandfather died a day before one of our rehearsals, and I was waiting backstage for my musical cue to go to my place, climb the bridge rails, and get into jumping position like everyone else, and I just burst into tears. Also, the main guy in that scene was a good friend of mine who was being seriously harassed, and I'd seen him break down just a few days before, and I couldn't stand to see him like that everyday even just as an act. Listening to that song can make my cry at any given point, and it can do it with the whole cast of the play, and a number of people who watched it. Wow this was long.
Trouble-Cat Stevens. This is purely because of an emotional scene of Harold and Maude, which also made me cry. Plus it's a depressing song. =P
Adam's Song- Blink 182. Lame, yes. I've only heard it once, a few years ago. I'd recently been an angsty suicidal young teen, so I guess that affected me. *shrugs*
Runners up are: Losing my Religion- REM Under the Bridge- Red Hot Chili Peppers
If I think of any more, I'll post them. I've been easily triggered to crying lately, =P, so it shouldn't be hard.

Oh god...there's SO many. Music tends to make me really emotional, in one way or another. The ones I can currently think of off the top of my head, I'll post. But I swear, there's probably 50 songs, so I'll be editing every time I think of something else.
Angel - Sarah McLachlan; This song makes me think of James sooo much...for somewhat obvious reasons. He was abused...which led him to his suicide...so the whole "Spend all your time waiting/For that second chance/For a break that would make it okay" thing just...fits, I guess. I listened to that song tonight.
Tear - Smashing Pumpkins; And this song makes me think of Nikky...she died in a car crash. It's actually about a car crash...and, she loved the Smashing Pumpkins almost as much as me. And that song was played at her funeral.
Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers; Definately makes me think of old friends, brings back lots of fun memories, makes me miss people...those kinds of things. =P
Black Balloon - Goo Goo Dolls; Reminds me again of afternoons with James. He was a big Goo Goo Dolls fan. We would spend hours sitting around and singing to this song on replay, or having it low-volume on replay, while we talked, because he could never be in silent rooms without it driving him crazy.
There's a whole bunch of songs that remind me of good days with my dad, when he wasn't an abusive junkie, year and years back, but there's too many of those to post right now.
EDIT: I can not spell "replay".

one song that kills me... "Friends are friends forever" oooh gosh that kills me.
another one... it's country... "Tough Little Boys"
and this one may seem stupid... but one thing that makes me cry is a symphonic song called An American Elegy... it was written for the columbine (sp?) shooting. it's soo pretty

I've noticed that I'm beginning to lose all emotion. It's sort of freaking me out.

I'm told I have all the wrong emotions. My Destiny refers to me as a "sadistic little knob".
Meh.

I realized that I was about to cry while listening to The Perfect Drug. I don't know why I want to cry when I hear that song, but I do.
And just to go along with the whole NIN thing. I currently have 70 pictures of Trent Reznor on my computer. Do you think this is becoming a serious problem? I feel like some crazed stalker-ish fan.

I think that's pretty common with Trent Reznor fans.

No Me Ames by Jennifer Lopez and Mark Antony. It's just so mournful...<3
I Love the Way You Love Me by John Michael Montgomery. I want someone to sing that to me someday.
Unbreak my Heart by Toni Braxton. Not the song, the video. I have issues with death and people's soulmates dying. If that ever happened to me, hoo boy.

I also found that The Great Divide by Scott Stapp and As Lovers Go by Dashboard Confessional have both made me cry.
