I can't say a song has ever made me cry, or even close to it. However, whenever I listen to The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die's Getting Sodas, it does have an emotional impact on me. The line "And when our voices fail us we will find new ways to sing. When our bodies fail we'll find joy in the peace that it brings" is particularly affecting because the band's singer lost his ability to sing shortly before the band recorded this song. So his bandmates have to sing for him on a song he had a hand in writing. The first time I heard those lines it hit me like a ton of bricks.
