Not an Eddie Vedder fan generally, but he channels Leonard Cohen well here.
he walks some weird ass dogs by my place sometimes; always a trip to pass him on the sidewalk.
:fmicon:
Sad in so many ways. A dying man singing his swan song:

I bet a lot of you guys can relate to this song about a son and his father trying to work out their differences:

Unfortunately I lived these lyrics:
I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
This is getting heavy.... I need to find something to make me laugh!
Weed, whiskey, and Warren Zevon. - Hank Moody
Surprised no one has Cats in the Cradle'd us yet.
Yeah but that Dad got what he deserved. So maybe not so sad?
If we're going to get old like that how about a song by Gordon Lightfoot:

Whoa, whoa, whoa.....
So bad Irul!
Oh.... Love Jim Croce. Always have to laugh at these old songs that mention things that don't really exist anymore like using the operator for numbers or a phone call that cost a dime.

Irul going straight for the jugular!
Streisand The Way We Were ?
There has to be some Manilow and Carpenters for sure.
The Cure had a few good ones.
Take this....

Love the story behind this song (she wrote it for her partner and mentor Porter Wagner who didn't want her to go out on her own). The original singer/songwriter of the song -

There's a lot of music posted here that isn't sad at all, some a bit melancholy and others actually uplifting. It turned into another "one up" thread.
The flip side to the "repulsively attractive" thread would more accurately be titled "attractively ugly" or "beautifully repulsive", but where would we go from there?
JP can write some sad songs.
I just learned this one.
The world's saddest song. I am dedicating this to OldLarry.
"Saw your other man today
He was wearing my brand new shoes"

Beautifully melancholic.
(Joan Armatrading doesn't get nearly the recognition she deserves.. IMHO)
I think Joan's great, personally.
Always found this song pretty but sad:

Eleanor Rigby fits the bill too.
If I'm going Beatles, it's this one
