It is awesome to see some Weakerthans up on here. The Saddest Song by Streetlight Manifesto www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUDndFKTA0sA Better time and a Better place by Streetlight Manifesto www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2yeNzL7rTUGuernica by Brand New www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2yeNzL7rTUThat one hits home hardcore. I knew the singer around the time this was happening. Not well, but we shot the breeze when they came to town, and I booked them the first time they ever toured. The song is about losing his grandfather to lung cancer, and not being able to get home to be with him. My dad died of lung cancer, but I was here. |

Hurt - Nine Inch Nails
Always gives me a lump in my throat. One of my favourite songs ever too.

This song instantly reduces me to tears. I can't listen to it.

The original version of "Hurt" by NIN was pretty damn sad, but the Johnny Cash version just multiplies that feeling. I love both songs.
This song just gets to me every time.

I will say I adore George Jones' "He Stopped Loving Her Today".
Willie Nelson's "You Were Always on my Mind" ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes. Always.

The NIN version with the powerful build really kills me when I ear it. Cash definitely has the somber tone to bring that feeling through as well. |

Anything off Frank Sinatra's "Watertown" and most of Lou Reed's "Berlin."

Sarah McLachlan's "Arms of the angels"....especially when it's combined with that ASPCA ad. Just turns the floodgates on every time.
Also, Garth Brooks' "Till You Come Back to Me Again" from FREQUENCY always gets me misty eyed.
And this thread would not be complete without mention of Jeff Buckley's soul wrenching version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah".

Nutshell by Alice In Chains. One of the saddest songs I've ever heard and one of my favorite AIC songs.
