Most depressing song...

Terry Jacks "Seasons in the Sun"

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend.
We've known each other since we're nine or ten.
Together we climbed hills or trees.
Learned of love and ABC's,
skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die,
when all the birds are singing in the sky,
Now that the spring is in the air.
Pretty girls are everywhere.
When you see them I'll be there.
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.
But the hills that we climbed
were just seasons out of time.
Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me,
I was the black sheep of the family.
You tried to teach me right from wrong.
Too much wine and too much song,
wonder how I get along.
Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die
when all the birds are singing in the sky,
Now that the spring is in the air.
Little children everywhere.
When you see them I'll be there.
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.
But the wine and the song,
like the seasons, all have gone.
Goodbye, Michelle, my little one.
You gave me love and helped me find the sun.
And every time that I was down
you would always come around
and get my feet back on the ground.
Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die
when all the bird are singing in the sky,
Now that the spring is in the air.
With the flowers ev'rywhere.
I whish that we could both be there.
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.
But the stars we could reach
were just starfishs on the beach

Which song has you reaching for the Jack Daniels and paracetomol, or that unused pack of razor blades...

I'd never heard of this guy (group) before... but OMG....my wife just had to pull me back from the window ledge

The entire BladeRunner soundtrack and the movie quite frankly are a must call for a side of booze, darkness and solitude.

I actually loved Blade Runner and the music by Vangelis, (he of "Chariots of Fire" fame). See we have the same taste in films fireman.

For all you Americans: Watch any "Eurovision Song Contest" if you need something to send you straight to the bathroom for the razor blades

ohh and that "we had seasons in the sun" song always made me puke! To think that the perpetrator of that abomination is probably living on some Golf-Condo in Florida off of the royalties of that song!

I listened to the Wall just the other day. I fucking love it. It's so relevant to me.

The ghetto by Elvis? Pleeease, not even worth mentioning on here.

Same goes for children of men IMO...

I also have to add to my list of sad songs the crow soundtrack...awesome movie awesome cd.

The Living Years . Mike & The Mechanics

Fields of Gold by Sting. I used it as the "First Dance" song at my wedding. I was/am so in love with Miss H.
Needless to say the relationship went off the rails due to a childhood abuse issue(hers not mine).
It was her landmine, but I set it off , so its a mixture of grief and guilt that I feel.

Anyway, I still love the song but it fills my eyes with tears.

Anything by Morrissey...



Which would also include The Smiths.

Honey by Bobby Goldsboro

Seriously, go DL it so you can see why it's such a beautiful and at the same time, tragic song.

Not even close. I was going to say this but you beat me to it.
