Pearl jam I love, Black is very emotive. I like a song by Allanis Morrisette called "Thankyou", it's very melancholy.
Emotive music: There are so many great emotive guitar solos but interms of all round emotive tracks here are some - Prelude one by a little known Australian group called Sentience; it's got these gorgeous minor 9 arpeggios with some volume swell guitar over the top and a beautiful bass line. Terje Rypdal's QED movement 4 is utterly tragic - more volume swell guitar but with lots of strings and some beautiful melodies.
If I couldn't laugh at myself how could I laugh at someone less ridiculous?
