What's the most saddest song you have ever heard?

Tears for Fears original is sadder for me because you hear the frustration in the voices of the people that wrote it.

I knew it from the start
You would break my heart
But you still I had to play this painful part
You wrapped me 'round your itty-bitty finger
With your magic smile
You kept me hangin' on a lovers cross a while
You put your spell on me
Took my breath away
But there was nothin' I could do to make you stay
I'm gonna miss you

All the love I feel for you
Nothing could make me change my point of view
Oh girl
I'm gonna miss you baby

(CHORUS
Giving all the love I feel for you
Couldn't make you change your point of view
You're leavin'
Now I'm sittin' here, Wastin' my time
I just don't know what I should do

It's a tragedy for me
To see the dream is over
And I never will forget the day we met
Girl I'm gonna miss you

Like a honey bee
You took the best of me
Now I can't erase those memories
Like a fairy tale
You are so unreal
You left a scar that's so hard to heal
When you had a taste of paradise
Back on earth can't feel
As cold as ice
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I miss you

(CHORUS
Giving all the love I feel for you
Couldn't make you change your point of view
You're leavin'
Now I'm sittin' here, Wastin' my time
I just don't know what I should do

It's a tragedy for me
To see the dream is over
And I never will forget the day we met
Girl I'm gonna miss you

It's a tragedy for me
To see the dream is over
And I never will forget the day we met
Girl I'm gonna miss you


haha milli vanilli was pretty sad

London Quireboys - I Don't Love You Anymore

Went To See Her Just This Mourning
To See How The Child Might Be
She Sat There Smokin All My Cigarette's
At A Table Set For Three
I Could Of Cried
I Could Of Cried...When She Said
Chorus
I Don't Love You Any More
I Was Slain And Shown The Door
Ain't No Room Here Anymore
Please Don't Look To Me For Help
All The Pain Is With Yourself
All The Blame Is With Yourself

So I Went And Seen My Friend's
I Tried To Turn To Them For Help
And All That Any Of Them Said
You Gotta Look Out For Yourself
I Could Of Cried
I Could Of Cried...And She Said
Repet Chorus
Ohhhh
Your All I Ever Wanted
All I Ever Needed
Every Time I See Your Face
Remind's Me Baby Of What We Had
I Get So Lonly Ooooh Ya Ya Ya

All Our Lives I've Been down
Always Seemed An Absence
I See My Friend's Every Night
But Even God Don't Care Any Less
I Could Have Cried
I Could Have Cried...When She Said

Hey you - Pink Floyd

Played at my friends funeral

I would have to go with this one:

How Come, How Long /Babyface Feat. Stevie Wonder [From Album : The Day]

There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she's not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
He abused her love and treated her so bad
There was not enough education in her world
That could save the life of this little girl

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
But no, it wasn't that way
So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
And she paid with her life
For loving that man
So we cannot ignore,
We must look for the signs
And maybe next time we could save somebody's life

heh, my father think the same.
He is a big fun of Shostakovich and even met him once...

mardigras, I have to agree that Seasons in Sun quite sad. It was the first one that popped in my head and I remember it when I was quite young (maybe 5-6 years old) listening to it and having someone explaining the words to me.

Anything by Céline Dion ... makes me while I remember that she is Canadian.

oh yah, and please add Bryan Adams.

Queen is a good one, there are a couple I can remember from when I was young that my dad used to play. Here are two from back in the day;

Ray Peterson - Tell Laura I Love Her
Wayne Cochran (and Pearl Jam does a cover) - Last Kiss
Blink 182 - Adams Song

There ya have it, those are def up there!

Tell Laura I Love Her
( Ray Peterson )

Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, presents,
But most of all, a wedding ring

He saw a sign for a stock car race
A thousand dollar prize it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
So to her mother, Tommy said

Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late
I've something to do, that cannot wait

He drove his car to the racing grounds
He was the youngest driver there
The crowed roared as they started the race
Around the track they drove at a deadly pace

No one knows what happened that day
Or how his car overturned in flames
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
With his dying breath, they heard him say

Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die

Now in the chapel where Laura prays
For her poor Tommy, who passed away
It was just for Laura he lived and died
Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry

Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die

Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die


Blink 182
Adams Song

I never thought, I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'dve known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didnt think enough
Im too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when Im gone...

I never conquered, When you came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldnt wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, Id survived
I couldn't wait til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months Ill be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never set foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, When you came
Tomorrow held such better days
Days when I can still felt alive
When I cant wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I cant wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone.....



Last Kiss

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screaming tires, the busting glass
The painful scream that I heard last

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

When I woke up the rain as pouring down
There were people standing all around
Somthing warm flowing through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
Hold me darling just a little while
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I had missed
Well, now she's gone even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life, that night

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

Woh woh woh woh woh
Ohhh oh ohhhh
Woh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh
Ohhh oh oh oh oh
Woh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh
Ohhh oh oh oh oh

Gone For Good - Morphine (and the singer Mark Sandman died a couple of years ago on stage)
-------------------------------------------------
I'm never going back never going back to you

I'm never going to see you again

I'm never going to dig out your picture

I'm never going to look you up someday

Life is very short

You don't love me anymore

So I'm never going to see you again

I'm never going to write you a letter

Never going to call you on the phone

I'm never going to drive by your house

I'm never going to catch you coming outside

Never going to walk up your walk

And ring your bell

And feel you fall into my arms

I'm never going to see you (x2)

I'm never going to see you again

Your gone for good
