The Saddest song

thirdeyeblindislit · 05-07-2005, 12:56 AM

I'm sure this has problibly been done before, but I want to know, what you all consider to be the saddest song that you have ever heard. Or any songs that may have made you think. Or the most depressing. I would like them to be songs that I could find.

thanks for your help. Please I really need some kind of list.

My saddest song would be:
The Funeral Party by The Cure

And my most depressing song would be:
The Eternal by Joy Division

Porcupine Tree - A Heartattack In A Layby

Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

Second verse is one of the saddest ever, it describes what happend right after a car wreak:
"When I woke up the rain was pourin down, there were people standin all around.
Something warm flowing through my eyes, but somehow I found my baby that night.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said: 'hold me darling, just a little
While'. I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that I
Knew I had missed.

Well now she’s gone. even though I hold her tight. I lost my love, my life,
That night."

*tear*

Other sad ones:
Iced Earth - Watching Over Me (a power metal song about a best friend that dies?)
Eric Clapton - Tears In Heaven (ofcourse)
Evanescence - My Imortal (it's pretty mainstream but still sad)
The Used - It's Hard To Say, On My Own
Opeth - In My Time Of Need

Just look for some random Joy Division songs.

One Life by The Last Emperor and Poetic is sad, too. Poetic had cancer at the time and rapped about how he had "three months left". Which he had. Sadly. He was great in The Gravediggaz.
