What's your favorite sad song?
Grey Street - Dave Matthews Band
Re: What's your favorite sad song?
Right now, it's Damini by USS. It doesn't sound sad, but it is sad.
Run by Snow Patrol is my ultimate sad song.
Its generally a toss up between:
Grace is Gone - DMB
Break Down Here - Julie Roberts
There is No Arizona - Also Julie Roberts
and lately:
Over You - Miranda Lambert.
Evaporated by Ben Folds Five
Shades of Grey by the Monkees
Hurt - Johnny Cash
Happy Ending - Mika
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
Click me, click me!
Nothing Compares 2 U - Sinead O'Connor













Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton
Mad World- Red House Paintings version
Lonesome Day- Bruce Springsteen - I must have listened to this song a thousand times when we were trying to get pregnant and I still cry when listen to it.
Daycare is SO exhausting!
Blog
Don't Walk Away - Michael Jackson
Oh, hell, and The Wrestler by Bruce Springsteen.
Sinead, good call.
OMG, I just heard that song the other day for the first time in years and I just about lost it.
There are so many good ones. My mind automatically goes to:
I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt
Tried to listen to this one on YouTube just now and couldn't make it all the way through without tearing up
Oh, man. Yep.
I love Brandi Carlile's version of this song.
Daycare is SO exhausting!
Blog
Give My Love to Rose - Johnny Cash
People Ain't No Good - Nick Cave
Song of Joy - Nick Cave
Radiohead - Just
Top one is probably River by Joni Mitchell
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
This, for me. Seriously, saddest song ever, and I love Natalie Merchant.
Oh Joni Mitchell... how could I forget her!
"Down to You" by Ms. Mitchell
Matter of fact, the whole Court and Spark album is fabulous.
Redemption Song or No Woman No Cry- Bob Marley
End of the Road - Boyz 2 Men (shut up)
Breathe Me- Sia
Needle in the hay - Elliot smith.
Love will tear us apart, mad world and hallelujah are also on my "want to watch myself cry in the bathroom mirror" list.
Mostly sountrack songs from movies. I have an awesome playlist on youtube of them.
But a non-orchestral song is probably "I Grieve" by Peter Gabriel off the City of Angels soundtrack.
I love me a good sad song.
Tears in Heaven is a great one, for sure.
My all-time favorite would probably be something by Counting Crows because they got me through my angsty teenage years. Anna Begins, Time and Time Again, A Long December, Colorblind...
More recently:
The Luckiest by Ben Folds.
Lullaby by Dixie Chicks.
If I Die Young by The Band Perry. It hits close to home.
"Here Comes the Flood," Peter Gabriel; or "Untitled" by the Cure.
Updated September 2012.
World on Fire by Sarah McLachlan.
The video is amazing.
