This thread also helps me reach my 2 topics every year quota, so that's exciting.

EDIT: Apparently the code box does syntax highlighting? Kind of cool I suppose.

Love Hurts - Nazuras

Lonesome Town - Ricky Nelson

Cold Cold Heart - Hank Williams

Johnny Cash - Hurt
RHCP - Under the Bridge

I don't know many sad songs

Bayside - Dont call me peanut.

Easily the greatest sad song out there.

The Division Bell - Pink Floyd on The Division Bell

Gary Jules - Mad World/thread

Anything with Rainy Mood.

This is true.

...and I've been beaten.

Wait... Mad World + Rainy Mood/thread

Yeah, I like that one. Also, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZFiTRIWaK0 by My Dying Bride. Extremely bad idea to listen to that when you're depressed.

I thought http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2b632ubAVs was a rather melancholic tune as I was playing through Shadow Hearts 2.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32l9go1e1HU from The Green Mile. Again, makes depression much worse.

Oh yeah, and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGtN3lpI2f4 from Shutter Island. Works great with Rainy Mood.

Aaaand last one, I swear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dtx3vQI1Rk4 from Shawshank Redemption. One of the most heartbreaking movie scenes of all time, IMO, and the song accompanying it is intensely sad.

*leaps on and hugs tightly*

As for the topic, I can't listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0Z3SoRPbS4 anymore, it's connected to many sad memories, although it's an amazing song.

Michael Jackson - Dangerous

Too many sad songs out there but a couple pop in mind at the moment:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibb2xBD2hLY by Hector Lavoe which translates into "What a mess" in english
-Hurt (the johnny cash cover version)
-Wish you were here by Pink floyd and See you on the other side by Ozzy are sad after you lose a loved one
-Mad World (the gary jules cover version)
-Tears in heaven by Eric clapton (any parent feels his pain on that one)

I could go on and on

Mad World+RainyMood, but it seems that was mentioned already, hah!

To add my own input, uhh, how about El Paso by Marty something. My brain is too muddled to think atm(its not really sad inducing, but just sad for the main guyhs perspective)

Such a great movie. I always get teary by the end of it.

Twin Peaks - title
U2 - Kite
Keane - Somewhere only we know
Depeche Mode - Higher love

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbuto9wfEHE

Yes it's a Final Fantasy song. It's also one of the most deeply emotional songs I've ever heard.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jtpf8N5IDE and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDUmT3wm-0A are two really sad songs.
Then we have http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpCfYDu0980&feature=plcp. A real good song by a swedish band.
And of course http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7zz1nma2TI.
Finally there's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGFvlnCq-ts.
