I know way too many sad songs

[razgriz]

Change in The House of Flies - Deftones

Zombie - The Cranberries

The Scientist - Coldplay

Fade To Black - Metallica

[joshlove]

I Think About You - Bryan Adams

[TheHatchChild334]

9 Crimes - Damien Rice My favorite song. It's so depressing. Damien and Lisa sing it so well live, too. :(

Untitled - Simple Plan The music video nearly made me cry.

March On - Good Charlotte I love this song. More of an inspirational song, with a sad undertone to it.

Wounded - Good Charlotte Such a depressing, sad song, but it's so beautiful. Very different than most of the loud music they do nowadays. Not many instuments, guitar, violins, a bit of drums, etc.

Mad World - Gary Jules This has more of an eerie, depressing feeling, rather than a sad tone. But I still like it a lot.

Nobody's Home - Avril Lavigne Very sad, but not in a self-pity kind of way. It's about someone else, really.

Run - Snow Patrol More of a don't-feel-sorry-for-yourself kind of song. It was a favorite of mine for a long time.

24 - Jem I wouldn't really call this a sad song...more of a coming-to-terms with death.

My Immortal - Evanesence One of my favorite Amy Lee song.

Wasted Years - Cold It is by Cold, right? Anyway, it's a great song. Song saying that life doesn't always go the way you want.

Let Go - Frou Frou Again, this is more of a insperational song, but in a quit-feeling-sorry-for-yourself kind of way.

Slipped Away - Avril Lavigne I think this song is about remembering a death.

Resurection - Moist - More of a dark tone to this song. It has a faster beat than most sad songs.

All She Wrote - Ross Copperman It's a lot like Avril Lavigne's Nobody's Home. About a girl who can't find her way. Very beautiful song. I'd reccommend it. :nod:

Write You A Song - Plain White T's Actually, not really a sad song. It's a love song about a couple who doesn't have much. More of a feel good song, but I love it. :love:

Well, that's my list. Haha, it took me a half hour, but I remembered a lot of songs that I loved. I'm probably going to remember more later. :rolleyes:

Ahem...800th post! :w00t: (Ha, sorry I had to.)

[Pedjella-Haaia]

songs which were polupar between may - octobre 1998

and diana ross- do you know

[Vashner]

I just saw Foreigner the other day "Cold as Ice" is a good one.:D
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_5DqFc9OOg

They didn't sing "I want to know what love is".. which i was bummed out. I guess that's a sad type of song.

Also Nazarath - love hurts. Ok all old school but ..

[Fantasysci5]

I can't link them, but I've always thought that the Evanescence songs were sad and depressing.

[Disaster]

Here's some songs that I've always found sad:

Fields of Gold - Eva Cassidy
Always on my mind - Elvis Presley
Bright eyes - ?? ...Yeah the song from Watership Down. :giggle:
Winter - Joshua Radin
Hallelujah - John Cale (And various others..)
I'll be missing you - Puff Daddy & Faith (I think..is that right?)
If tomorrow never comes - Garth Brooks/Ronan Keating
Always - Bon Jovi
Over the rainbow - Eva Cassidy
Sometimes you can't make it on your own - U2
What if you - Joshua Radin
You had time - Ani Difranco
Magic Castle - DBSK/TVXQ (Korean)
Find the way - Bada/Mika Nakashima (Korean/Japanese)
Fix You - Coldplay
Goodbye - Jang pil soon (Korean)
Noon eh ggot - Park hyo shin/Yuki no Hana - Mika Nakashima (Snow flower..Korean/Japanese versions)
Andrometamorphose - Plastic Tree (Japanese, amazing)

But these are without a doubt the saddest songs I've ever heard:
Unnamed Song - Yoshiki/Violet UK (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj8TMhue5FQ)
Sung completely in English, written in memory of Yoshiki's friend and ex-bandmate hide.
(Note: I actually can't bring myself to watch that video right now and I never can without bursting into tears. RIP hide.)
Without You - Yoshiki (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EvQtBb23l0)
Same meaning as above, but it's just a piano piece. Lyrics were written but, as of yet, not recorded.
Forever Love - X Japan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL-wk-yw76I)
Japanese with some English. Really very sad, especially when sung at the funeral (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF2EPftV_eo) for X' guitarist hide (who I mentioned before).
(The PV version is better than the one I linked to, but this one has lyrics so if anyones interested..)
Tears - X Japan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3qtT858uvI)
About half sung in English. Written by pianist Yoshiki (yeah Yoshiki writes lots of very sad songs..) after the death of his dad.

...Every X Japan song is amazingly sad, and just amazing. Other ones I'd recommend are Crucify my love and Endless Rain.

[NikitaZ]

For me, the saddest song is One by U2. It still makes me cry every time I hear it. I also think Nothingman by Pearl Jam is a real weeper. Pearl Jam has a ton of sad songs, come to think of it! Counting Crows' Goodnight Elisabeth is another one.

Gary Jules' version of Mad World is sad in itself, and coupled with the scenes from Donnie Darko its almost too much to take.

[Bilbos Dragons]

"What hurts the most"--Rascal Flatts ...I'm not a country music fan and for sure I never will be after that tear jerker. I split up with my wife when that song was all over the radio and to this day when I hear it my day is ruined-no joke. And I'll leave it on to torture myself, perhaps as punishment. I've reconciled with my past but the song still affects me bigtime.

[0HeartsAndMinds0]

I have far too many but my favourite one is Far Away by Nickelback, always makes me cry!

[Iselin89]

I Know Him By Heart

Am I living in an illusion?
Wanting something I can't see
If I compromise, I'd be living lies
Pretending love's not meant to be
'Cause I know my heart's worth saving
And I know that he'll be waiting
So I'll hold on and I'll stay strong 'till then

'Cause I know he's out there somewhere
Just beyond my reach
Though I've never really touched him
Or ever heard him speak
Though we've never been together
We've never been apart


Baby Mine

Little one when you play,
don't you mind what they say.
Let those eyes sparkle and shine,
never a tear,
baby of mine.


The Other Side

I know it would be outrageous
To come on all courageous
And offer you my hand
To pull you up on to dry land
When all I got is sinking sand
The trick aint worth the time it buys
Im sick of hearing my own lies
And loves a raven when it flies

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
Ill see you on the other side

Honey now if Im honest
I still dont know what love is

[Rosie xx]

Baby Mine

Little one when you play,
don't you mind what they say.
Let those eyes sparkle and shine,
never a tear,
baby of mine.

Velvet Underground is one of the best bands in the world, BTW. Check out their debut album, it's an absolute work of art.
