There is absolutely nothing wrong with being a grown man who cries. If you don't believe us, ask Rosie Grier and he'll set you straight. We believe crying while listening to music is a holy experience and a healthy one, whatever your state of mind or reason for why a song gets you to shed a tear or two. Music is magic, as we all know. ATTT is excited to welcome back award-winning writer and author David Wild, who has his own tales of getting a bit weepy thanks to a moment with a great song.
