How Long Ago Since You Cried Listening To Music?


For me is was last weekend, The group "Sugarland" singing "Stay".

I feel sorry for those who have never been brought to tears. I feel those that are brought to tears experience the music on a much higher level, are more involved with what the artist is trying to convey. Feeling more than just hearing. Those that get involved enough to tear up are hearing in color. Those that don't are hearing in black and white. Girlie-man? Sounds like a mannish-boy.
Ever get a rush that starts as just a tingle, then increases, and envelopes your whole body until you can barely stand it? My first flight did that. Once I moved, the rush subsided. Since then, music has done it a few times. I've learned to sit still and enjoy.
Never cried while listening, but I'll bet the op was referring to music bringing tears. If it doesn't happen to you it's one of those things you'll just never know. Are you missing anything? Who knows?
Why would anyone make fun of somebody for crying? I don't understand. I guess if someone you loved dearly passed on and you cried, people would accept this as being OK. But if you were brought to tears while listening to music, your friends might think you were a sissy? Sounds shallow.
