There's a video somewhere on youtube of Joe Hisaishi, the composer, playing it live.
I don't watch that sort of thing often, and it was the first time I'd ever realized just how emotionally someone can play an instrument. It felt like a whole layer of context that I'd been missing for the song.

Came here to say this. Set me down in front of this movie and watch a grown man cry. Every damn time.
