Rivers of tears over here.
In response to the original question: all the time. Sometimes
thinking about a particular piece of music makes me cry. It's by far the medium that connects with me more than anything. Sometimes it's nostalgia, sometimes it's a connection with a picture that impacted me, sometimes it's the perfect conduit for a particular life experience, sometimes the music simply conjures feelings. Music seems to colour my world and experiences in extremely significant ways -- I sometimes don't feel like I
really feel the depth of a particular event or experience unless it's put into music. It's not that I don't feel the events or emotions accompanying them, it's just that I feel an almost overwhelming depth to them when abstracted into music in some way or another. And it can be for any reason -- joyful, sorrowful, grateful, at peace, anxious, etc. I've had multiple standalone albums legitimately change my life -- there was one in particular where upon listening to it I cried like I've never cried about anything before and it healed me in a deeply significant way. I was never the same after that.
I cry rather infrequently otherwise.
