Due to some personal demons of mine that as of today I still struggle with, some ending/credits themes from the Touhou games end up taking on a sad, downer mood, then when combined with an initial sadness of my part are enough to squeeze tears out of me - sometimes a lot of them. The biggest tear jerkers are: - EoSD: Crimson Belvedere - Eastern Dream
- PCB: Dream of a Spring Breeze and Sakura Sakura - Japanize Dream
- IN: Eternal Dream - Mystic Maple
- MoF: The Gods Give Us Blessed Rain - Sylphid Dream
- SA: The Earth Spirits' Homecoming
- UFO: Youkai Temple and Returning Home from the Sky - Sky Dream
Not sad per se, but Emotional Skyscraper - Cosmic Mind (aka Byakuren's theme) gives me an incredible soaring feeling in my chest. What are yours?

MoF Stage 5's theme sounds rather melancholic, as well as SA Stage 2, but those are the only ones I can think of.

I tend to have times when I cry at hearing the ending themes of various Touhou games. Although themes that really caught me emotionally are: Kanako's theme The Venerable Ancient Battlefield ~ Suwa Foughten Field, Shinki's theme Legendary Illusion ~ Infinite Being (for emotional reasons), Yuuka Kazami's theme Faint Dream ~ Inanimate Dream, Yumemi Okazaki's theme Strawberry Crisis!!, Remilia Scarlet's theme Septette for the Dead Princess, I mainly think that the emotions invoked by those themes date back from the times I was put under pressure when I had my battles with them in the games, after all, once I look back at it, I sometimes feel tears coming from my eyes, it's a rather hard thing to really stop, although that just shows how much love I feel towards them There also are a few different themes I feel emotionally moved by, like Mountain of Faith's stage 3 theme The Gensokyo the Gods Loved, the first few times I heard that, I had to hold the tears when the theme started playing RIGHT away, it's such a nice and well-made theme.. Ahh.. It's really nice for the biggest part to get reminded of this.

Reach for the Moon ~ Immortal smoke gets me excited Fires of Hokkai gives me a feeling as well
I'm not moved to tears by music alone, though. Some kind of tragedy usually has to be involved. I haven't cried since the first time I watched Les Mis, like 5-6 years ago.

I can agree with that soaring feeling thing on Emotional Skyscraper. The song feels like an epic journey through the skys on the Palanquin ship. Satori Maiden~3rd Eye makes me feel extremely happy as well, but that's because it makes me think about Satori, which can always make me feel happy. That and I like that song enough to make it the song I've listened to the most, with an estimated 100-150 hours of repeated play total.

Always get goosebumps on Voyager 1969. It really makes me feel like I'm in SPACE, THE FINAL FRONTIER. Close second being the heartbeats from Fires of Hokkai.

Oh yeah, just remembered another one.
The Eternal Steam Engine (Soku credits) - it averts the usual sadness inherent to ending sequence/credits themes, being the only one to do so in my case so far.

Not that I am biased or anything like that. But I really like the AMV Alice->Dere. It talks about moving past hard times and accepting happiness, even though you will be losing it later. Better be happy for a short while and experience loss, than to never have happiness at all right? ;_; it made me teary eyed too.

It breaks my heart every single time ;__; If you search for the word "bittersweet" there's probably a link to that video.

An overwhelming majority possesses the vibe to emotionally move me, especially Septette for the Dead Princess, which, under unknown circumstances, nearly makes me cry every time I listen to it. As such, EoSD 1CCs are overly complicated when your eyes are obscured by the tears of great music.
