And now ... a Yuletide weepy ...

Nat King Cole sings "The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot" ...

boohoo

"This empty room it fills my mind
Freedom it leaves me so confined
Every single bone has cracked
But in this life, you can't turn back

I don't want to live
I don't want to live here alone, alone, alone, alone

As these words part with my tongue
I question why they're even sung
I promise but I lie
I don't even know myself inside

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be here alone, alone, alone, alone

Today and tomorrow have become one
Every single thing has become none
Human nature is a beast
What ive done the most, to show i have the least

Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Don't you leave me alone, alone, alone"

"Send me your position
It's getting lonely down here
Things I've been up to lately
Have kept me from seeing clear

Why do you keep on running
This love is fading way to fast
All the stars are burning (for you)
But none of them is going to last
So stop chasing the past

As soon as the storm is over
And all the fog is clear
As soon as the storm is over
I've promised to send out for you"

Try listening to this one without crying...




choked up as typing this...


I miss you Momma.

I'm in tears as i write this... Having just lost my best friend.

RIP David

Elliot Smith - say yes
What can I say? It's Elliot Smith.


Nine Inch Nails - Right where it belongs
For me personally one of the saddest songs I know, about coming to a sad realization and having to re-evaluate with world around you.


Red House Painters - have you forgotten?
Awesome slowcore bad, very heartfelt stuff about hurting for someone else.


American football - Honestly?
Very retrospective song from an incredibly under rated band.


Knapsack - courage was confused
About someone that never took a chance or chances they were given and regretting it.

Hi soldier8828, I hope I am not mistaken here, but I always experienced listening to this beautiful and touching song as being a sad song.

It’s from the marvelous tenor Enrico Caruso.

Enrico Caruso - Vesti la giubba 1907

Smashmouth - Waste


Tracy Chapman - Fast Car


Luciano Pavarotti - Puccini's Nessun Dorma from Turandot


Third Eye Blind - How's It Going To Be

LOL Raven, that was the first song that crossed my mind.


How can you not find that song sad Poster?

My contribution is Everybody Hurts by REM.
