Favorite "sad" music?

music you listen to when you're sad/music that's just plain sad/depressing

i really don't think i've listened to anything more sad, and I think it'd be pretty hard to find something more depessing than this guys music.

I think classical is really the only kind of music that can truly make me feel sad (in a good way...).

Nimrod is definitely what I would consider to be one of the sadder pieces I've heard.

A couple of other notable pieces would be To The Stars, and The Breaking of the Fellowship

I like the band "Hurt."

1.Erik Satie Gymnopedie No.1

2. Two Steps from Hell - Memories

Mourn by sentenced , one of the most beautiful and sad instrumentals . Also , here's my cover of it .

Wow, nice dude. Frozen is a great album.

It depends, I can listen to something that has some sort of sentimental value or something that is melancholy. I don't really have any "sad" songs that I listen to.

The Smiths "Back to the old house" and "asleep" (Ugh, after moving away from my childhood home, I can no longer listen to Back to the Old house, ever again)

Bloc Party "signs"

Beethoven "Pathetique- 2nd movement"

Radiohead "fake plastic trees"

And several Chopin pieces.

There are so many... I dont know, some music from videogames makes me really sad, like nostolgic-melancholy.

Martha My Dear sounds like it's trying to be upbeat, but it makes me depressed.

Same with the Spice and WOlf ending.

Ben Folds - Fred Jones, Pt. 2.

If you want a real downer, this is probably what you're looking for:

The best sadcore has to offer

Bushwick Bill is always reliable when you feel really pissed off with the world. Still not so sure about his new gospel angle but the old bushwick was the king of pissed off depressed songs.

Wow, nice dude. Frozen is a great album.

Black - Wonderful Life

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Somewhere over the Rainbow

Stan by Eminem

and

Katy Song by Red House Painters

and

If You Want Blood by Mark Kozelek (one of my favorite songs ever)

DeVotchKa - How it Ends.metroidprime55

In before someone mentions that pandering, terrible cover of Tears for Fears Madworld. Off the top of my head mine would probably be Madea's Dance of VengeanceNuck81

Anyway

Adagio For Strings

Devotchka- How It Ends

Brian Eno- An EndingI don't know about sad but it certainly is atmospheric thinking music. (Ambient)

Henry Gross- Shannon for the more conventional music

Ludovico Einaudi - Nuvole Bianche

The Beatles- Yesterday

I don't know I guess not all of them are typically "sad" but still.

Elliott Smith Not all of his music is 'sad,' but I have the tendency to listen to him more when I'm sad.t3hrubikscube

Does that mean you're sad all the time :(

Earl Thomas Conley - What I'd Say, That Was a Close One.

George Jones - He Stopped Loving Her Today, The Grand Tour.

Jamey Johnson - Even The Skies Are Blue.

Joe Nichols - Farewell Party(also Alan Jackson), My Old Friend the Blues.

Daryle Singletary - Old Violin, Long Black Veil, I Never Go Around Mirrors(also Keith Whitley, and Lefty Frizzell).

Conway Twitty - (Lost Her Love) On Our Last Date.

Keith Whitley - I'm Losing You All Over Again, Dance With Me Molly, It's All Coming Back To Me Now, Living Like Theres No Tomorrow, If A Broken Heart Could Kill.

Marty Robbins - Lord You Gave Me A Mountain.

Vince Gill - When I Call Your Name, Go Rest High On That Mountain.

and many more

Don't have one at the moment.

Read the lyrics

Turning Point

The Carrier

Killing The Dream

Counterparts

Oh boy, here we go lol

Johnny Cash - Hurt

or

SNSD- baby steps (not really 'sad',but the mood of the song makes it feel as if it is)

Looking at my playlist.......not many. In fact I have only two songs I can consider "sad."

Train

Natalie Merchant

Make that three.....

Goo Goo Dolls

no mention of Joy Division yet? :o:shock:

Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, No. 2- Chopin
Étude Op. 10, No. 3-Chopin
"Moonlight Sonata"- Beethoven
The Great Gig in the Sky- Pink Floyd

A few off the top of my head. Forgive me if the names of the classical pieces are off. Also, though I included Pink Floyd in there, 99% of the music that has managed to envoke a feeling of sadness for me is classical.

DeVotchKa - How it Ends.metroidprime55

1000x this.

damnation album by opeth
