Saddest songs.

[Alphavillain]

Probably all bar one (the title track) of the songs from "Pink Moon" by Nick Drake.

 

[Bernzz]

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd is one.

Yes, definitely.

Mad World is really depressing.

Everytime I listen to that song it gets me how depressing it is...

And.....

Oh god yes, damn that song gets to me.

My own are:

Snuff and Vermilion Pt. 2 by Slipknot, Road to Nowhere by Bullet for My Valentine and Black Gives Way to Blue by Alice in Chains,

 

[[Kira Must Die]]

This song always tugs a heart string whenever I hear it:

This is probably the first song that made me cry:

This song hit me on a personal level. I especially like this version:

 

[Purple Shrimp]

Dead Flowers and Maybe After He's Gone

edit: also After Hours

 

[Aggressor and Usurper]

My own are:

Snuff and Vermilion Pt. 2 by Slipknot, Road to Nowhere by Bullet for My Valentine and Black Gives Way to Blue by Alice in Chains,

These, except not the Bullet one.

I suppose I'll post the only 2 songs I've ever cried while listening to.

 

[ottenni]

And i think i should put in the original as well.

 

[Samuel Cook]

I'm sure that GreenDay song is called Boulevard of Broken Dreams..

The only sad song I can think of now is 'There Is' by Boxcar Racer, but if it's not acoustic your after then 'Down' by Blink 182. Both fantastic songs.

[TheSquirrelisKing]

"Say Yes" by Elliot Smith
Alternatively
"Landslide" by Fleetwood Mac (Although I prefer the Smashing Pumpkins' cover)
Both these songs get to me every time.

Oh I LOVE sad songs. I'm a country music fan, but suprisingly most of thier songs are just depressed, and not nessecarily sad songs. My two favorites that I can think of right now are "Wiskey Lullabye" by Brad Paisely, and "The Baby" by Blake Shelton.

 

[EeveeElectro]

According to QI, this song causes a lot of suicides.

 

[reg42]

Hmm... Maybe Creep by Radiohead

Spoiler: Linkage!

And I'll have to say Her Ghost in the Fog by Cradle of Filth

Spoiler: Linkage!

 

[MurderousToaster]

[sub]Chose the Jules version because it's slightly more sad than the original[/sub]

But...well... It's hard to still find it depressing after this:
