The saddest song..
Valrus:
I'm going to have to offer some dissent on the Street Spirit (Fade Out) matter. This line just kills it for me:
--- Quote ---Cracked eggs, dead birds / Scream as they fight for life / I can feel death / Can see its beady eyes
--- End quote ---
Usually I like Mr. Yorke's lyrics, but these are just so melodramatic and high school poetry-ish. It's a good song, but IMO this line makes it hard to take completely seriously.
Exit Music's a good one.
KharBevNor:
The only type of sadness Radiohead instill in me is a sadness that I am not listening to some better music.
A few more:
Of The Wand And The Moon - In a Robe of Fire
Agalloch - ...And the Great Cold Death of the Earth
Ulver - Hymn VIII: Of Wolf and the Night

We know you don't like Radiohead. We know there are other who don't like Radiohead. Does somebody really have to make a comment like that every time the band is brought up?
I don't dis metal in every thread you post in.
Valrus:
I'm sayin' bro!

Kilkelly is one of the saddest songs ever. It's hard to find a good recording, though. It's a folk song about the potato famine, originally written from old letters found in someone's attic. Atwater-Donnelly, a husband-wife folk duo out of Foster, RI do a phenomenal version with a dulcimer and flute. Blackthorne also does a version.
Also, "Most of the Time" by Bob Dylan is really sad. It's brilliant songwriting.
