Can we start a thread of songs where the vocalist begins crying, sobs, or is audibly on the verge of tears, presumably without original intent? Not live performances, and preferably not instances where it's the style of singing (i.e., Bright Eyes), although those could be acceptable too.
The only one that I can think of right now is Runaway and I remember being blown away that he kept it on the record, but I feel like there have to be more examples than that.

The song 'In A Gadda Da Vida' by Iron Butterfly was allegedly originally called 'In The Garden of Eden' but their singer was so fucked up he slurred the whole song out.

He has trouble keeping it together during the part about Buddy Holly, and his voice breaks around 2:20. The two were friends.

2:15, since I know a lot of people here can't sit through ska. One of my favorite moments in a song ever, there's so much emotion in that.

OP here: correct, Runaway - Kanye West
That one Korn song where Jonathan Davis breaks down. I think it was Daddy? I forget, it's been 10 fucking years since I've heard that album.
