And on a related note, what other music videos affect you far more than the song by itself? I know that's kinda the point of music videos, but they rarely have a desired effect.

Yes, I am moved to tears both by the song and the video. Irony free tears.

CAN you cry ironically? I didn't the brane was wired like that.

Sure you can cry ironically! Fake, bitter, cynical, postmodern tears.

I remember the video to Pipes of Peace by Paul McCartney having this effect at the time, not so sure it would now. I guess I would've been about 11 or 12.

What is there to cry about? It's not as if robots are being harmed or anything. I'm baffled.

I always liked the Dru Hill video where there's a building on fire, and Cisqo saves someone, but it's too late :(

C'mon jel - he love her! She loves him! They can't seem to stay in the same dimension together! It doesn't make me blubber, but it does give me goosebumps...

And lest not forget that really amazingly COOL shot where the camera pans from one side of the mirror to the other and we see them in real -life and animated. So cool!

If by "cry like a baby" you mean "laugh like a drain for a few minutes and then bemusedly scan the channels for Golden Girls reruns" then yes.
