which singer/song really makes you emote?

The snivelling shits' version of "If you don't want to f**k me baby, baby f**k off" always bought a lump to my throat.

Heirloom by Björk.

that's a goodie. i find almost anything key she does can have me emoting... headphones, hyperballard, all the tracks starting with 'h'...

have you heard her new album is purely vocal? assisted by a few choice vocalists (inuit choir, mike patton...)

Oh yeah, how did I forget: Nick Drake.

unbeatable. if you happen to be in southern UK then look out for a guy called Keith James (http:\\www.keith-james.com) He's been doing this show for a while covering Drake songs. Tours it a lot, mainly playing small art-centre type places.

He's really very good, not an exact mimic like a lot of 'tribute' bands, he really puts a lot of himself into the songs. And a phenomenal guitarist, has most of the tunes down perfectly (no mean feat)

Sounds interesting.
It seems a logical choise, Vespertime is already very focused on vocals.

Almost anything by Current 93 (and the related Nature and Organisation) - with a few rare exceptions, pretty much their entire back catalogue makes me all weepy. Live the effect seems to be even stronger... I saw them in Toronto on the 19th of June and there weren't too many dry eyes in the house at the end.

Scott Walker's 'Farmer in the City' tends to get to me too.

I'd also have to say Keiji Haino, particularly 'Tenshi No Gijinka' and the Nijiumu recordings.
