| Blackbird by Alter Bridge. The song was written as a tribute to a friend who died of cancer. You can feel the pain and the sadness. The guitar actually sounds like it's crying. Reply • Back to Top |

| Konstantine - Something Corporate Sort of had a stairway to heaven vibe in that its about a 9 min song that starts low and just keeps building and building This post was edited on 1/31 at 7:14 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| Tears in heaven or Hurt-cash version Although I love Layla, I never heard it as an emotional song. Imo opinion, there are more emotional song on that album, like bell bottom blues. Reply • Back to Top |

| Most sad, emotional songs tend to have at least some bittersweet moments, where the lyrics or music have a moment of hope, strength or dignity. Tears in Heaven by Clapton is a great, sad song, but there's a tender sweetness to it. Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me is great, too, but she sings with strength. In that context, I'm not sure if I've heard a sadder song than Katy Song by the Red House Painters. It's less an artistic outpouring of emotion than the feeling of being intimately close to someone experiencing pure heartache. They nail that empty emotional space after a painful breakup when your heart, soul and mind feel painfully stripped of everything and you numbly grasp for some sort of meaning in the broken shards of memories you're left with. And from that void of despair, you feel the song move towards giving up on life and annihilation, like the final moments before death. It's a well made, lovely little song-- really!
