emotionally moving songs

What songs do you find motivating and some times emotionally moving, I would like to know because I would like to compile a list of those types of songs and hopefully listen to it, so far I have two:

Bob Dylan - Masters Of War
Amazing Grace on the bagpipes

I would be interested in the list that you generate, if you care to share it.

My songs are more "motivating" or "mood changing" than they are emotional, spirtual, etc. I'll list a few if that is what you are looking for.

Any songs I have that are "emotionally moving" tend to have personal reasons behind it...

Tchaivovsky's 6th Symphony is quite moving emotionally. It's rather depressing actually, but I love listening to it.

Also if you can include a site to sample the song(s) would be really great

When I say "mood changing"... some of these have actually put me in a bad mood, full of anger and rage... but maybe that's because of my mindset or my thoughts at the time

I loop this one more than the others:
Future Leaders of The World - Let Me Out

My favorite "mood changing" classical is Claudio Monteverdi's L'Orfeo (tu se morta):
(note: this OGG doesn't do it justice)
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...27s_Lament.ogg


Just a few of them:
Underworld - Cowgirl
Shinedown - 45
System of a Down - Aerials
Ying Yang Twins - By Myself
Crossfade - Cold
Puddle of Mudd - Drift and Die
Nickelback - Feelin' Way too Damn Good
Filter - Nice Shot
Seether - Fine Again
Prodigy - Fire Starter
Godsmack - I Stand Alone
Silverchair - Israel's Son
Future Leaders of The World - Let Me Out
White Zombie - More Human Than Human
The Crystal Method - PHD
System of a Down - Prison Song
Silverchair - Pure Massacre
Saliva - Click CLick Boom
P.O.D. - Set It Off
The White Stripes - Seven Nation Army
Shinedown - Burning Bright
Shinedown - Simple Man
Metallica - Shoot Me Again
Tracy Chapman - Gimme One Reason
Papa Roach - Last Resort
Van Halen - Running with the Devil
Three Doors Down - Whem I'm Gone
Voodoo Temple - Whore
The White Stripes - Why Can't You Be Nicer To Me?
