Janelle Monae - Cold War, and the video too is very touching.
Sam Sparro - I Wish I Never Met You, apart from that one line in the song.
Coldplay - Warning Sign
Adele - Don't You Remember
Lana Del Rey - Dark Paradise
Rihanna - The Last Song
"My Immortal" by Evanescene...also add "Hello"
"Run" by Snow Patrol not the disney-esque Leona version
Emeli Sande "My Kind of Love" (forget "Beneath You're Beautiful" and "Read All About It"...THIS is more touching and personal)
George Michael. Jesus To A Child. Now THAT is heartfelt.
I know they're not from the last 13 years, but both this and 'You Have Been Loved' immediately came to mind. Songs like these show exactly how talented a songwriter George Michael is.
I Think It's Time We Sat Down Here And Talked A While
Yeah There's Something I Wanna Say
Yeah I Know Our Love's Known Better Times
But It Don't Make It Right
To Turn And Walk Away
Did We Forget What Love Was Like?
Or Did The Colours Just Fade Away?
Along The Way Our Blue Skies Became Grey
And I Don't Know When
And I Don't Know How
You Used To Make Me Smile
You Used To Move Me
You Used To Take Your Time
To Get To Know Me
You Used To Ease My Mind
You Used To Move Me
Things Used To Be Just Fine
Why, Why Don't We Stay?
Autumn Time, Late Night Talking, Making Plans
Well The Stars Will Never Change
They Will Never Change
All I Wanna Do Is
Make My Life With You My Baby
But You Gotta
You Know You Gotta Feel The Same
You Used To Make Me Smile
You Used To Move Me
You Used To Take Your Time
To Get To Know Me
You Used To Ease My Mind
You Used To Move Me
Things Used To Be Just Fine
Why Don't We, Why Don't We Stay?

Couldn't choose one.
Dance with my father by Luther Vandross makes me tear up every time!
Johnny Cash's version of hurt is probably one of the most emotional songs I've heard, especially the version he did before he died!
And also...

Not sure why, but that just makes me want to cry every time I hear it. Beautiful.
Britney - Everytime
Can't think of any more right now, I'm not really a sad song type of guy.
Incredibly emotive.
Hauntingly beautiful and sad
Which is? I never listen to words so cant recognise it
