What's your favourite emotionally manipulative song?

Johnny Cash - Hurt

Black by Pearl Jam, the MTV unplugged version. Never really had a relationship but Vedder's vocals make me cry like a bitch every time I listen to it.

Also Bronte by Gotye - reminds me of my dead dog. Unlike Black, I stay the fuck away from this song because I have a nervous breakdown everytime I hear it.

I honestly didn't know emotionally manipulative songs were a thing.

Of course they are. Songs that use the right chords and right lyrics to make you feel something. It's been around since classical music.

What's manipulative about them though?

Yeah but then there are also songs that by themselves are not really anything special but you get attatched to them because of someone/something in your life that happened or was happening at the time you discovered the song.

They're manipulating you into feeling something against your will.
