What to you is the saddest song you have heard? I nominate - Luther Vandross; Dance with my Father. Maybe not the saddest I've ever heard but tugs at the old heart if you have ever lost a parent

Not necessarily sad, but definitely melancolic; anything by Anthony and the Johnsons.

Something Corporate - Konstantine.
Not the saddest, but pretty sad.

Not a song, I realise, and perhaps slightly clichéd, but Barber's "Adagio for Strings" gets me every time. After 9/11, the BBC proms changed the "Last Night" programme, and Adagio for Strings was on of the pieces played. The conductor was an American guy, Leonard Slatkin. If you want to see barely restrained emotion, have a look at his face at the end of the piece, from about 9'45" in the YouTube clip.

Listen to Lisa Gerard, especially "Sacrifice". My kids call her the "whale woman" but I love a miserable song.

Cock Womble 7 said: "Everybody Hurts" by R.E.M. Agreed. I seem to have some sort of bizarre masochistic obsession with listening to songs that make me feel sad!
