As someone who has experienced a tough loss, Release, Light Years, Come Back, Man of the Hour, Long Road will all do it for me. Last year in Leeds, Eddie dedicated the song to 'John,' which was my late father's name, and that was probably as hard as I've ever cried to a song. Hit me incredibly hard.
Hard to Imagine and Other Side get me emotional, too. And after the ESPN piece on Gleason featuring Sirens, I've looked at that song in a whole different light, and it'll make me tear up a bit when I hear it live.

Long Road... almost every time I've heard it since my Grandpa died. This song is what it sounds like when a family loses a rock. Still haven't seen it live since it happened.
"Well, I think this band is incapable of sucking."
-my dad after hearing Not for You for the first time on SNL .
Sirens...I can't believe my favorite band released a song this bad (cries).
Bad in which way?!
See what I'm talking about?

I am pretty sure, this will always be a very special song to me. I remember stumbling across the video while watching Jimmy Fallon/Hootie and the Blowfish/AIC. I watched it like 8 times and after that, there was no going back!

First time posting - okay, I have a confession to make! Although I'm old enough to remember when Pearl Jam first emerged, I only got into them after hearing Sirens on the radio and didn't realise that they were still around! Since then I have been listening to everything - still have a few albums to go, but so far I think Come Back can be emotional depending on mood.

^Congrats on your first post! Release, Garden, Nothingman, Off He Goes, Man Of the Hour, Bee Girl, Long Road, Come Back, Yellow Ledbetter... Maybe it would have been quicker to list the ones that don't make me cry?
I cry every time I hear Rearviewmirror. Cuts me deep. It's a catharsis for me. "I gather speed from you fucking with me. Once and for all I'm far away.. Hardly believe finally the shades are raised!!!" Every time I hear it all my anger turns to joy.
I think for myself it is Low Light. Im 36 yrs old and still dont know who i am as a person. Its the struggle of finding my center that evades my peace. That song just tugs on my soul.
