songs that make you sad :(

[BlurOfSerenity]

and not just sad in an uplifting, theraeapeutic way.

i mean songs that make you want to slit your wrists, or cry and scream, etc.

mine are "cross out the eyes" by thursday, and "jesus or a gun" by fuel.

i've cried uncontrollably during both.

 

[ris]

coldplay's scientist [too close to the bone], goldfrapp's deerstop.

 

[ris]

and radiohead's how to disappear completely

 

[Luis G]

I can't stand Amor Eterno, either sang by Juan Gabriel or by Vicente Fernandez.

 

[Dave]

the entire Norah Jones CD.
the sound, mood and tempo makes me think of a cold, damp and dreary day in the fall.
no one at work wants to hear it anymore. too depressing.

Cold - Bleed

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

radiohead's "how to dissapear completely", and cold's "bleed" are two songs i am very, very, familiar with, but i find them to be uplifting, somehow.

 

[AlladinSane]

I can't stand "Tente Outra Vez" (Try again) from Raul Seixas. It has a rather positive message, but he sang it like he was trying hard to believe in it. In fact he almost shout the whole song and I could swear he was crying while. I can't help myself but cry too when I sing it...

 

[ris]

for me ash, at the time, i really did wish that i wasn't there and it wasn't happening.

 

[Leslie]

lots of David Foster's stuff... For Just a Moment is one...

and the theme from Love Story...

 

[chcr]

The Theme from Love Story does it for me too Les.Another one that really gets to me, for personal reasons, is MacArthur Park by Richard Harris (yes, the actor). Forever Autumn is another really good sad song, but I love to sing it so it doesn't make me sad.

 

[Squiggy]

Jude Cole- Heaven's Last Attempt

 

[Leslie]

yeah, that one too, now that I've sat and listened to it

 

[Luis G]

I can't stand "Tente Outra Vez" (Try again) from Raul Seixas. It has a rather positive message, but he sang it like he was trying hard to believe in it. In fact he almost shout the whole song and I could swear he was crying while. I can't help myself but cry too when I sing it...

i know what you mean, you can feel the tears in the voice.

 

[Professur]

Butterfly Kisses. Heard that while on the road and had to pull over to pull myself together. Damn near turned around and headed home right there and then.

 

[Leslie]

ohhhhhh ack isn't that one awful/great/gutwrenching too?

and Beth, of course...

 

[chcr]

and Beth, of course...

Forgot that one. Those circumstances are why I quit playing in bands when I asked Dara to marry me.

 

[Leslie]

hubby used to sing that to me when he was pretending he missed me while on the road

 

[Professur]

I used to win bets from people who didn't believe that a sweet song like Beth was played by Kiss.

 

[Leslie]

it's really one of the prettiest songs I've heard.
