Eric Clapton- Tears in Heaven It makes me cry everytime I listen to it, but it is beautiful. Most of the songs I have looked at on the forum at the moment, really arent sad to me, but are good songs. |

"Lover, You Should've Come Over" ~Jeff Buckley "Delicate" ~Damien Rice (that song makes me sad and angry at the same time [img]smileys/smiley6.gif[/img]) "Hallelujah" ~Jeff Buckley (especially with the added lyrics on the end: "...Hallelujah, baby, until you're nothing") the part of the Smiths' "I Know It's Over" that starts with "If you're so funny then why are youon your own tonight?..." [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img] "Don't Speak" ~No Doubt (I know that doesn't fit in with the others, but oh well...[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]) more to come later...I'm having a brain fart now! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] ~LeeAnn |

I'd have to say either Famous Blue Raincoat by Leonard Cohen or maybe Bulletproof... I Wish I Was by Radiohead, Fake Plastic Trees was written a few hours after Thom Yorke went to a Jeff Buckley concert, which is kind of strange.

One of the saddest songs I know is Mary. Sung by Terry Roche on Exposure by Robert Fripp.

I still think the saddest Ben Folds song is "Evaporated"... but"Fred Jones" is Top 3 for sure.

Dark things were going on during the making of that album. Here is an excerpt from an interview: "(...) during the process of writing their debut album, the singer's girlfriend of six years dumped him because she felt he was more committed to the band than to her. Soon after, Turner's father almost died of meningitis. "The doctor said he wouldn't make the weekend, and I was watching Pete and his family fall to pieces," Garvey recalled. "All of that stuff found its way onto the record somehow."" |

Re Elbow. As dark as some of the lyrics are I find there is something deeply moving in the actual music alone.

What about "stop me June (little ego)", by Kent?
It took me over 2 years to understand why it moved me so much... I was in my car, playing it to a very good friend I hadn't seen for years - meanwhile she had tried to kill herself several times... And she listened to the song entirely, without a word. At the end, she was crying -so was I, but for the first time, I knew why: I had always thought this song was about the end of a love story, when in fact it is about suicide... PSoes anyone know Kent?

Leslie Keye/Wilde Oscars - Parade
about a guy who's legs get blown off in a war and he's in a parade after the war with everyone cheering but all the time he's just thinking to himself. "Who is gonna push my chair after the parade is over?" I've been looking for any version of this song for the last five years but no joy...[img]smileys/smiley6.gif[/img] Other than that Last Kiss, and Raining in Baltimore-CCs

Tears from heaven is pretty depressing. But I honestly think that The Blowers Daughter is one of the saddest, well it makes me cry.

I know most folk ain't into classical but I can't believe no one has mentioned Adagio for strings by Samuel Barber, easily one of the saddest pieces of music ever, used to great effect in The Elephant Man when he goes to sleep for the last time, and in Platoon when Elias dies. But for non classical I would have to say Gary Jules version of Mad World, you hear it at the end of Donnie Darko. |

I always find The Scientist by Coldplay really sad. When I heard it after breaking up with my girlfriend there's so many lines that just kill you. The bit where he says 'Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me' or:
Nobody said it was easy Oh it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard Maybe it's just me but that song always makes me sad

What about " Black" By "Pearl Jam" I love it so much but it is very sad.. That would be a cool song for Damien to cover to
