I'm sorry, Swoly... You're one of the people I like best at this site... ... but I have to say.... BWAHAHAHAHAHAH !!!!!
sad songs, uhmmm, say so much... 'J' for Jules- 'Til Tuesday (Amiee Mann), song about breaking up with Jules Shear
Konstantine - Something Corporate I don't know why but that song always mesmerizes me, makes me think back to a time when I felt that way about a stupid girl. actually these are pretty much songs that aren't sad in general, but they make me indulge in self pity when I'm down. Hootie - Let Her Cry Jet - Look what you've done Evanescence - My Immortal Red hot Chili Peppers - Under the Bridge Avenged Sevenfold - I Won't see you tonight part 1 Jurassic 5 - Thin Line
You want sad? Lou Reed's Berlin. Brilliant, and very, very sad. It even has a song called, appropriately, Sad Song. Jeff Buckley is another with many sad songs. Excellent stuff, and he left us too soon. Grace is a good LP. Forget Her always grabs me. So many sad songs... from so many artists. This thread could go for several pages.
droxford, thanks, man. But don't get me wrong. I friggin' change the station (I think ONLY 99.1 plays that anymore) when I hear it, just because I hate MIDLER. Like Manny said, and by golly, that sounds SAD to me. I dig the "bwahahaha" GIF. I dig it.
One of my personal favorite sad songs is "Why Does It Always Rain on Me?" by Travis. Heck, the whole album "The Man Who" is relatively depressing.
gmao. you posted something about travis in a manny thread. i remember bringing up the band and then them being called "just not good" or something to that effect. but... i definitely agree. that particular cd kicks major arse. from what i remember, there was only one upbeat song on that whole cd... something about "and i love you so. let's watch the flowers grow" or something like that (i think it's number 4, 5, or 6). [drunk post... sorry]. one of my fav bands. i phocked up that cd (just like the rest of my collection) by throwing them in the back seat of my car. you just reminded me to rebuy the album. thanks. anyway... sad songs... not a big fan of blink, but "adam's song" is so darn depressing. seether's "fine again", and... not sure who originally sang this song, but whatever version i hear... well... it always kicks arse.... "Change your heart Look around you Change your heart It will astound you I need your lovin' Like the sunshine Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Change your heart Look around you Change your heart Will astound you I need your lovin' Like the sunshine Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime I need your lovin' Like the sunshine Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime Everybody's gotta learn sometime" last minute google search... some guy named korgis? hmmmm... first version i heard was on the "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" soundtrack.
Aaron Hall - Miss You I was told this was about a girlfriend or wife that he lost in real life. Aaliyah - Miss You is a good one too.
Really? It did have that upbeat chorus..maybe I wasn't listening to the lyrics closely just the scissor cutting ..
Man on the Moon, by R.E.M., always strikes me as a very sad song., one I keep listening to. Teardrop, by Massive Attack, is another good one.
Oh here's some moody songs: Cranberries - I miss you when you're Gone Boyz II Men - Hard to say Goodbye Boyz II Men - Water runs Dry 112 - Your letter Bush - Glycerine Coldplay - The Scientist Escape Club - I'll be there Most of The Cure songs (kinda ironic with name)
Bonnie Raitt- I can't make you love me. Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me, tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me. Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't Cause I can't make you love me if you don't. I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holdin me Mornin will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight. Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't Cause I can't make you love me if you don't. An ex-girlfriend told me she couldn't listen to Bonnie Raitt anymore after we broke up because of this song. When I listened to it closely it made me so sad. It gives me chills now to read the lyrics.
God, the one song that comes to mind, because it reminds me of my recent break up, and downfall, was The Killers- Everything Will Be Allright I believe in you and me I'm coming to find you If it takes me all night Wrong until you make it And I won't forget you At least I'll try And run, and run tonight Everything will be alright Everything will be alright Everything will be alright Everything will be alright I was out shopping for a doll To say the least, I thought I've seen them all But then you took me by surprise I'm dreaming bout those dreamy eyes I never knew, I never knew So take your suitcase, cause I don't mind And baby doll, I meant it ever time You don't need to compromise I'm dreaming bout those dreamy eyes I never knew, I never knew But it's alright... Everything will be alright Everything will be alright Everything will be alright Everything will be alright ****, its making me think of the way she looked when I would watch her sleep.....
