Saddest Good Song?

<< < (18/21) > >>

ImRonBurgundy?:
i'm on the Jets to Brazil boat, too.  after a particularly rough break-up, i must have listened to "In the Summer's When You Really Know" and "Perfecting Loneliness" about a thousand times each.

The Weakerthans- "Left and Leaving" (again)
The Weakerthans- "Exiles Among You"
Sage Francis- "Runaways"
A Radio With Guts- "Math and the Mocking Moon" (another song i listened to a lot after that break-up)
Weezer- "The World Has Turned and Left Me Here" (not actually as emotionally affecting as some of these other songs, but the songwriting is just dead-on)
Chris Murray- "Home"
Jawbreaker- "Ashtray Monument"

Eels - Electro-shock Blues
Eels - Railroad Man*
Eels - Flower
Eels - Things the Grandchildren Should Know*

*I think there's a chance one of these might be a cover, I'm not sure though. I would check the liner notes but my headphone cable won't reach my room.

Nope. These are all original EElS songs.

Also, Dirty Girl? Huh?

EElS - Manchild is also sad.

Thrillho:

--- Quote from: Jedit ---
--- Quote from: Tearon ---Pink Floyd- Comfortably Dumb

The Decemberists- The Bus Mall

Sigur Ros- Saglpur

That last one was probabaly a ridiculous mispelling.

The first one was a ridiculous misspelling.  Not sure why you'd find it sad, either.

It's not sad, but the music in it is so, so powerful.

Injektilo:
"Bloodstain" - U.N.K.L.E.
"Madeleine Mary" - Bonnie "Prince" Billy
"Try Not to Breathe" - REM

"I will try not to burden you
I can hold these inside
I will hold my breathe until all these shivers subside"

Chesire Cat:

--- Quote from: E. Spaceman ---Stop Your Crying - Spiritualized
It's odd, because it's a plea to someone loved to stop crying, but it's so sad itself. I love the line "I feel so broke inside but I'll devote my life to loving you"
--- End quote ---


Broken Heart > Stop Your Crying.

And as for saddest good songs;
The Weatherthans - Everything but Aside off of Left and Leaving
Deathcab for Cutie - Styrofoam Plates
R.E.M. - Everybody Hurts
Our Lady Peace - 4am
Yoko Kano - Space Lion(off of Cowboy Bebop soundtracks), and pretty much every flashback/Julia music from the series.
Blink 182 - Adams Song, I regret nothing!
Bright Eyes and Badly Drawn Boy - Cant name an specific songs but im sure theres a few sad songs, but all the songs are great.
Hayden - Most of his shit is really heartfelt and awesome
Hollies - He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother, makes me cry everytime, if only on the inside.  If your Canadian and had the pleasure of the anti-drug commercial scored by it, then you would understand.
Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees


I am sure theres like tonnes more in my playlist but I'll leave those for you atm.

*edit*

I didnt read any previous posts until after my post.  Anyway, I stand by Adam's Song.  And Skibas Clavicle rose like 30 points in the hot awesome meter for listing Hayden.
