Saddest Good Song?

<< < (8/21) > >>

Johnny C:
If "Left And Leaving" by the Weakerthans was a person, it would suffer from depression, I think.

Also: Okkervil River's "Song Of Our So-Called Friend," from Black Sheep Boy, is such a devestating culmination of the rest of the record that I can't quote from it without ruining some of its impact. Suffice to say, great album, sad songs, and that one's probably the saddest.

Skibas_clavicle:

--- Quote from: mberan42 ---Radiohead - Exit Music for a Film and Talk Show Host
Sigur Ros - Pretty much their entire catalogue
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism (the song from album of same name)
--- End quote ---


--- Quote from: Mikendher ---Elliott Smith - Twilight
--- End quote ---

AGREED! Twilight might just be the most soul crushing song ever.

On my personal list of sad songs:
Alkaline Trio - Sorry About That, Radio
Death Cab For Cutie - Styrofoam Plates, Tiny Vessels
The Spill  Canvas - The Tide
My Bloody Valentine gets me depressed
Mogwai - Take Me Somewhere Nice
Martha Wainwright (in general)
The Dears (in general)
Jets To Brazil - Further Noth (If you want to feel lonely, listen to Perfecting Loneliness. It's a brilliant a powerful record, just horribley depressing and heartbreaking).
Hayden - Bad As They Seem
The Cure - the Blood Flowers cd (once again, terrific but hella sulky)

EDIT: Johnny C, Left & Leaving: AMAZING. It get's me everytime too.

MusicSim8:
Oh yeah, She's Leaving Home by the Beatles.  

and for some reason a purely instrumental song that always brings a tear to my eye, Captive Delusions by Bela Fleck and the Flecktones

killerstarfish:
Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
Bryan Adams - Heaven
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here and Hey You
Beatles - Golden Slumbers (this one has some memories...)

Soidanae:
The entirety of the Tori Amos Crucify ep.
