Music that makes you cry?

It's not lyrics in music that makes me cry, it's simply music that I find inspirational. Instrumental/electronic music is what's done it for me. It doesn't make me sad or anything and there honestly no way for me to explain it; it just happens. And I kind of like it.

Any specific examples? I love music that just does something to your soul, regardless of lyrics.

Still the most emotionally compelling, intrinsically powerful, utterly eargasmic piece of music I've ever heard - despite being entirely instrumental. This just brings the feels like no other for me.
 
Turn off the lights, put on your favourite set of speakers/cans/IEMs - & immerse yourself in the sheer inexplicable beauty that this song invokes so perfectly. Don't think - just listen.

  Sting - Why Should I Cry For You. I'm not even a particularly big Sting fan but this one just kills me.

The Mahler mentions made me think of the Adagietto from his 5th symphony. Doesn't necessarily make me cry but I think it might have when I first heard it about 35 years ago. Brilliant and profound piece of music.

Brian Eno's "An Ending (Ascent)" got to me the first several times I heard it. It's been used in a fair number of films now. Even Top Gear has used it on their show.

I remember I watched that Top Gear episode with the Aston Martin v12 vantage. I got tears in my eyes.
