What are some sad songs you enjoy?

Please Remember Me - Tim McGraw

Here Comes Goodbye - Rascal Flatts

Dear Agony - Breaking Benjamin

So Far Away - Avenged Sevenfold

Coming Down - Five Finger Death Punch

The one that hit me hardest was:

One In The Chamber & The End Of The Beginning - Famous Last Words

(I highly recommend watching the video)

Its actually two different songs but its a video about suicide prevention
The first part is heavy metal/screamo and the second part is a 'in loving memory" with a bunch of people who committed suicide
It can make a grown man cry.


Also, these are just a few. I have a lot more but these are the main ones.

Some people are incapable of regularly listening to music which expresses any emotion other than joy/elation/happiness. This is a slightly depressing thread for a Friday night.

Music is a form of catharsis for me and I therefore make use of songs delving in melancholy, anger, hatred, pain, loss, suffering, pleasure, joy, celebration, reflection, redemption, and everything in between.

"10,000 Days (Wings Pt. 2)" by Tool is extremely powerful and saddening. The song is Maynard James Keenan's eulogy for his recently departed mother, who was wheelchair-bound for the majority of her adult life while oddly enough being a very devout Christian. Maynard comes to term with his relationship with God while simultaneously declaring his mother's due admission to Heaven and her eventual relief of all earthly suffering.

Pearl Jam... Black

The way he sang it in the early 90's. A woman fricked him over or he fricked it up and it sounded like singing it ate a little piece of him (Vedder).

Fade to Black.... Metallica.

Fade to Black is almost cliche' in its sadness now, but years ago it was and still is awesome. With a great ending solo that just adds to it somehow. Strange because it ends the song at a very fast "metal" pace.

10,000 days is a good choice. That's s very emotional song. I actually just got done listening to it.

"10,000 days in the fire is long enough. You're coming home." Tough lyric, especially coming from someone like Maynard who has a hardass and mysterious persona; hearing him be sentimental about his mother is pretty profound IMO.
