The saddest song..
Tessie:
Tom Waits, as sung my Megan Mullally- Take it With me
--- Quote ---In a land there's a town
And in that town, there's a house
And in that house there's a woman
And in that woman there's a heart I love
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
--- End quote ---
Then, the biggest loser is me....

Someone already mentioned Elliott Smith's "Between the Bars." Which I always thought was about alcoholism, and always made me want to develop a drinking problem just a little bit. I want to add "Needle in the Hay" but that may only affect me because I love The Royal Tenenbaums so much.
The Radiohead song that I'm surprised no one has mentioned is "Pyramid Song." And the Nine Inch Nails song I'm less surprised no one has mentioned is "The Downward Spiral".
And now I get my indie moment, because no one has mentioned the Microphones' song "The Moon," which is absolutely wonderful and devastating at the same time.
StrikeThePostman:
Definitely add "Needle in the Hay". Elliott Smith's whole self-titled album is just flat-out depressing.

--- Quote from: heretic ---it's too thrash to be sad... it's more angsty and angry

Ever get depressed and break something? Sometimes the raw anger is pretty sad, anyway. It's all a matter of perspective on life.
Oh, any opinions can't be wrong but they sure can be misguided (to whomever said that).
Sad songs:
Arrogant Sons of Bitches - Last on my List
Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution - It's a Wonderful Life
Bomb the Music Industry - Big Plans of Sleeping In
Catch 22 - As the Footsteps Die Out Forever
Edna's Goldfish - Sunrise to Sunset
Gimp - Supernothing
One Cool Guy - Best Intentions
Razbari Sumthing - I Feel Fine
Stray Bullets - Thrift Store
Subb - Me and My Maxwell House

I'm gonna go for Okkervil River here.
They're an awesome band - mostly acoustic, kind of folky stuff. Some of the saddest songs I've ever heard. Try "Red", "Kansas City", "For Real" or "It Ends With a Fall". "For Real" is more sad just due to the delivery - Will Sheff really sounds like he's putting everything in to it. Actually, the whole album "Down The River of Golden Dreams" fits the description. "For The Enemy" gets me every time.
