I'm not real crazy about sad songs, but here are a few off the top of my head...

Breaking Benjamin - Rain


System of a Down - Lonely Day


Seven Mary Three - Lucky


Stone Sour - Bother (disclaimer: don't kill yourself)


Shinedown - 45


They make me sad at least...

Oh here's an oldie that I think is pretty sad.

The Shangri-las - Leader of the Pack

Not sad so much as emotional but it is one of my favorites.

Okay, so after that submission it's unofficially official - this thread needs to come with a warning tag!!! And a box of Kleenex.



That's the best version I've heard of that song.

It really is right?

So beautiful, so sad.

Glad you liked it anyway.


Their version of "Knocking on heaven's door" from the "I'm not there" movie soundtrack is great too.

Enjoy (ok, maybe the wrong word for this thread....er.... endure )

How about a sad sounding album?

Savatage's "Streets: A Rock Opera" is pretty sad sounding. Good album though. I especially like track 16, called "Believe".

Also, Luther Vandros's "Dance with my Father". That song makes me cry whenever I hear it, I think it's incredibly sad.


If I can think of any others I will post them.

Here's a trifecta from the same band. Heavier than most, but I feel the point is universal. I apologize in advanced in that no matter what I've tried, I am unable to link a direct youtube video. Any any rate, You're still one click away from the video.

Iced Earth-Melancholy (Holy Martyr)

www.youtube.com...

A song about jesus that isn't all sunshine and rainbows.


Iced Earth-I Died for You

www.youtube.com...

Sang from the wrong corner of a love triangle.


Iced Earth-Dracula

www.youtube.com...

Its based on bram stroker's dracula where he declares war on God for damning the person he loved to hell.

Enjoy.

Some that have personal reasons for me. These songs bring tears to my eyes every time I hear them. All for different reasons.

Matthew Good Band - Strange Days


The Black Crowes-She Talks To Angels


Cindy Lauper-Time after Time

I think I have a few for you I love sappy songs, dont know why but I do.

Sade "By your side"




The Pretenders "I'll Stand By You"



Matchbox Twenty "Hang" its a live version since there was no real video for it. It was the last song on their first album and its one of my favorites!



Matchbox Twenty "If You're Gone"




There are some of my favorites. I also think anything by mariah carey in the earlier days would qualify for sad songs too..

"Time After Time" is a great song! Have you ever heard MB20's cover of it? They only did it at concerts, unfortunately out of the 10+ I attended they never sang it. I saw it on their Australian concert video and loved it!!

Don't know how to imbed videos so I will just name them, if anyone one wants to post them for me or give me instructions I would appreciat it.

Saddest songs.

Hurt- Johnny Cash

In This River- Black Label Soceity

Another Spoke in The Wheel- Black Label Society

Torn and Tattered - Pride and Glory

Changes - Ozzy and Kelly (don't make fun of me)
