For me it's "We won't be a alone" by Feint feat. Laura Brehm. I just have nostalgia attached to it and it brings back some nice summer memories.

This post is also for song recommendations since I listen to the same songs for years and I guess I wanna hear something new.

Edit: grammar mistake corrections

Almost Blue Elvis Costello

Almost blue
Almost doing things we used to do
There's a girl here and she's almost you
Almost
All the things that your eyes once promised
I see in hers too
Now your eyes are red from crying
Almost blue

Flirting with this disaster became me
It named me as the fool who only aimed to be

Almost blue
It's almost touching, it will almost do
There is part of me that's always true
Always
Not all good things come to an end
Now it is only a chosen few
I have seen such an unhappy couple
Almost me
Almost you
Almost blue

All of the Virtute The Cat songs by The Weakerthans, but Virtute The Cat Explains Her Departure in particular will make me tear up any time I hear it.

I used to do Renaissance Faires.

"Wild Mountain Thyme" was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.

It hits me like a truck every time.

Touch Starved by BB Bean.
I don't think I need to explain why...

Also whenever I listen to I'm Not Crazy by Kevin Walkman, I always tear up at "No way, I've watched that TV show you've loved since like sixth grade. I wish that we grew up together, is it too late?"

Right in the fucking heart.

For me it's Answers from FFXIV

Such a heartfelt moment that I tear up as soon as I hear the melody

Jim Croce - Time in a bottle

Rum & bass by boom kitty

Not quite the same vibe as the rest here but this song makes me feel like I could walk through a cement wall and fist fight an army

Great on a rowing machine at the gym if you really want to set a PR

Witch by TotalDeadCenter hits similarly
