Ohhhhh Noooooo. Whatever you do don't let that cat guy, Wylie something? find this thread. You will never get a freaking post in edgewise and it will suddenly ballon from 3 pages to 743. All posts of his. *beep* I hate that guy, ruined the best of Youtube thread.  |
HAHAHA thats funny...That post really made me laugh...The Best of Wyles99 it should be called..
Anyways, my choice for a "sad" song is
The Workhouse- Boxing Day
Its one of two or three songs that actually have words in it. But thesedays I prefer no vocals. I don't really care about what someone has to yap about. |

Yes, Elliott Smith. Loved many of his songs.
The first time was when I watched American Beauty, his voice dropped me into that hopeless darkness. |

To go back to the Goldberg Variations, it's interesting to compare Gould's first and last recording of it, as far as sadness goes. The 1982 recording is not long before he died, and you can HEAR it (in the Aria, especially). The first recording was all technical bluster, but the last one was definitely sad.
Other good sad music -
Gillian Welch - Revelator
Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
Palace Brothers - Days in the Wake
Joanna Newsom - Peach, Plum, Pear |

I guess I've got rather different music tastes.
Songs I listen to when I'm feeling a bit down...
Type O Negative - Burnt Flowers Fallen
Macbeth - Thy Mournful Lover
Others...
But when you need to get out of a melancholic mood...
Metallica - All Within My Hands
Bleeding Through - Love Lost in a Hail of Gunfire
And if you're really, really angry at a member of the opposite sex... I mean *really* angry...
Type O Negative - Pain

sia - breathe me
from the final episode of six feet under
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghPcYqn0p4Y
pretty much any song that's used for depressing scenes in movies:
henry nilsson - without you, elliot smith - needle in the hay, air - playground love.
rosanne cash's album - black cadillac
it's about the death of her dad (johnny cash), mother and stepmother; they all died within a two year period. |

'Running' by 'No Doubt'
Listened to it after I really had given up on a girl and stopped loving her after a 6 year relationship. Still reminds me of that particular kind of sadness every time I hear the song.
'Eleanor Rigby' by 'The Beetles'
Damn that's a depressing scenario.
'The Last Waltz' from the movie 'Old Boy'. (I think it's by 심현정).
One of the most sad and beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. |

Now I'm really eager to hear them both and compare them. |

Embarassing to say, but some of the music to Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI...I guess that's the video game geek in me.
Marle's theme and Celes' theme... |
