Whats the Saddest Song You Know?

For me it is Trois Vierges from Epica's album Consing to Oblivion

Off topic: Epica is the best band ever (for me of course)

It's hard to narrow it down. it's usually a song by Tom Waits, though.

"Anywhere I lay my head" for the raw emotion in the vocals
"Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis" for the story and delivery.
"Hurt" Johnny Cash. Because it's so truthful coming from him.
"I know it's Over" - The Smiths. "Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head"
"Salty Seas" Devics.
"The Dance" - Garth Brooks.
"Running For Home" - Matthew Good

Yeah,, I listed a lot, but I can't choose one. There's a perfect song for each situation. If I had to lean towards one, it's likely "Christmas Card". That song hurts.

Tears in Heaven is the first song that comes to mind.RHCP87

That's a truly sad song, especially when you're familiar with the inspiration behind it.

A few other sad ones are Concrete Angel - Martina McBride, How To Save A Life - The Fray, Diary - Bread... plenty others I can't think of at the moment.

Real Gangster (now) by SPM will make you sad for the human race.

The Fray - How to Save a Life.

Yeah, I don't listen to alot of sad songs.

"The Dance" - Garth Brooks.Lockedge

Thats a good one

Here without you by 3 doors down and In lovin memory by Alter Bridge

Whatever by Husker Du is pretty depressing due to the subject matter, as is 'Standing By The Sea'

Almost anything by Joy Division, mainly the last couple of songs on 'Closer'
