The saddest song..
likeadocentslisp:
songs that manage to destroy every ounce of happiness in a room:
dead flag blues - gy!be (soul-crushing.)
support our troops (black angels oh!) - xiu xiu (instills a sense of bitter sadness/anger so well you will poo on yourself)
ancient delay/black vomit - wolf eyes (wolf eyes do things to people. strange and terrible things)
songs for when you are sad
asleep - the smiths (mmm...to be fifteen and brokenhearted. or seventeen. woo.)
to forgive - the smashing pumpkins
boards of canada - an eagle in your mind (psuedo-ambient techno to brood to)
a billion others. lots of elliott smith. good times.

Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out)
My favorite Radiohead song. It's one of the greatest musical displays of hopelessness ever written.
mechorg:
Street Spirit (Fade Out) and Exit Music would have to be my two choices for the saddest sounding Radiohead songs.
I listened to those many times in my depressed youth.
Inlander:
Man, all this talk of Radiohead and nobody's mentioned "Creep" yet? The song that bummed out a generation!
mechorg:
Thats because the generation never bought the album and just listened to the radio.
It is a good and sad song, but I'd rate it with High n Dry and Karma Police. All very good sad and depressing songs.
Radiohead made a market on the sad and depressing songs.
...and so did many other bands.
