Subject: »Saddest songs

Nah, emos wouldn't call it "Saddest songs", but just "songs" :P

Just one for now:

Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold - (only Eva's version sounds very sad)

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Ten Sharp - You

Patrick Watson - The Great Escape (really great lyrics)


And a lot of classic songs like these:
Yann Tiersen - Sur le fil

Beethoven - Moonlight sonata

Bach´s Cello Suite No. 1

Rotfl! Nice timing! I discovered this song today at about 18:00 when I was going back from my French lesson, listening to the Scrubs soundtrack!

This topic is depressing

Good topic!

In my opinion, this is a sad song.

+ Oasis´s songs
for example...

Nick motherf**king Drake! :D Awesome, I should have thought of him sooner. You could also add Fruit Tree and Black Eyed Dog

maybe.... goodbye by air supply?

My ex-girlfriend learn to play this song with piano and sing it to me when I left her. At that point it really got me. I learned all the words and later we both sit on the piano and singed this in an early morning when we we're drunk. This song made me sad afterwards and it took couple of years till it pass and I can listen to this without getting something in my eye:




Back in the days some people in Finland accused that Sentenced have influence for so many young people to end their lives by their own hand. But they just made music for people who just love that bittersweet feeling what this kind of music will give...This is their last gig, last song, ever:




There was already Pearl Jam - Black, but I must say that I like this version better. Aaron Lewis just brings that extra something here:




Last but not least; this is the best song ever written and of course I know all the words...Rest in peace Paul:

the lyrics definietly isn't sad, but the "spirit" of the song is.
