Scorpions "Still Loving You" is my favorite sad song. The chords are beautiful and the lead singer's voice is so plaintive.

I can't even listen to "Wish You Were Here" by Mark Wills because it makes me start crying. It's so sad.

Beautiful and gut-wrenching all at the same time.

I read a couple of pages but not the entire thread but I did not see “everybody hurts” from R.E.M.

Didn't realize I needed a good cry, but I had one.


Didn’t realize I did too. Saddest Christmas song ever.

Sobbbbb


SO sad.

Also loved the Keane recommendation.

"When I Was A Boy" by Dar Williams, "I and Love and You" by the Avett Brothers.


I have cried so many times listening to "When I Was a Boy."

Another favorite I don't recall seeing is "Winter" by Tori Amos. I used it for my dance with my father at my wedding.

Right now, "Where are you Christmas" by Faith Hill is making me bawl.

This song right here is unreal amazing in its ability to capture heartbreak. It’s so good

His lyrics really do perfectly capture it.



Totally. And the way he delivers them. Wrecks me


This has been on repeat for a while...sigh. It’s hits all the bells and whistles.
