The Weeping Song - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Full On - Samiam
The Boys of Summer - The Ataris
Bleed Black and Girls not Grey by A.F.I.

Hey Alyssa,

My guy-friends don't know this, but I can freely admit, I'm a sucker for a good love song. Here are a few sad/break-up ones that I can remember off the top of my head:

Mariah Carey - Vanishing
Alicia Keys - Never See Me Again
Sara Bareilles - Gravity
Carrie Underwood - I Know You Won't
Quincy Jones - Just Once
Chante Moore - One More Time
Toni Braxton - Un-break My Heart

I know I'm forgetting a few more. I can't tell you how many times I've played that Tamia/Brandy/GK/CK song...love that one.

Hmm...just thinking about these songs is getting me depressed. Thanks!

Ugh...maybe I'll drown my sorrow into some chocolate or start a "happy happy joy joy" song thread...

[Angel17TS]

For an English song I get too sad with My All by Mariah Carey

But here is a sad song, its Arabic so heres the translation cuz I know nobody heard it before, but its very sad....

I swear to God
It's not worth living in this world without you
Nor is my life worth anything in this universe

You've gone
And how will I bear the distance between us
And how will I scatter these roses on the distance between us

You didn't promise to share with me in love
You remain for me love and a guide for my way

But death was closer and more merciful for me
God alone was a good agent for me

Go I'm satisfied with your absence my life
This is my lot and this is my destiny

You were a candle lighting and brightening my life
You went out and disappeared when you left

[Alyssa87]

"Since I fell for you" by Lenny Welch is by definition the very song Alyssa talks about. Please Alyssa, give it a listen if you have not.

Seriously.......I recomend you all download it, go to a quiet place......and feel the song as the man sings. One of my favorite songs.........EVER

Thanks for the opportunity to state my (strong) opinion. lol.


Close seconds........."Good morning heartache" by Dianna Ross and by Billie Holiday


and even (don't laugh) the slow ballad version of breaking up is hard to do by neil sedaka. (not the fast one from the 50's or 60's, that one sux.

James Taylor, "Fire and Rain"

Seems mostly to be about lost friendship, maybe not romance, but a beautiful song nonetheless.

If Ever You're In My Arms Again
by Peabo Bryson

It all came so easy
All the loving you gave me
The feelings we shared
And I still can remember
How your touch was so tender
It told me you cared
We had a once in a lifetime
But I just couldn't see
Until it was gone
A second once in a lifetime
May be too much to ask
But I swear from now on

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Now I'm seen clearly
How I still need you near me
I still love you so
There's something between us
That won't ever leave us
There's no letting go
(No letting go)
We had a once in a lifetime
But I just didn't know it
'Til my life fell apart
A second once in a lifetime
Isn't too much to ask
'Cause I swear from the heart

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Never end

The best of romances
Deserve second chances
I'll get to you somehow
'Cause I promise now

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end...

a killer:

A Waits fan.....Is it only us Manhattan folks who can see his brilliance?

[systematic_chaos42]

Well, I feel like I don't have much to offer besides something cliche and obvious, but I guess I'll say it anyways.

Johnny Cash- Hurt

Yeah yeah yeah, I know. That one sure was pulled out of the depths of obscurity. And yes, I know it was originally by Nine Inch Nails. But hearing that song, especially when he was as close to death as he was really floored me.

Also Escape Club's I'll Be There really touched me.

[transmaven]

Probably too obscure but - "That's Entertainment" by The JAM

Yes!! one of the greatest rock bands ever -- thank you for bringing them up:

PatrickfromNYC,

Ah, man, Waits is it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvZK8Wl7RQ8

--this is my favorite Waits song, it's almost unbearable. That melody!

Johnny Cash- Hurt


Excellent song

Ryuichi Sakamoto's Forbidden Colors from the film 'Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence' with Sakamoto and David Bowie. David Sylvian sings well. The song is heartbreaking even if you don't know the story.

Timi Yuro - "Hurt"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPy-Memj0vE

[JerseyMike]

One thing that rips my heart out and then stamps upon it are the songs from The Last Five Years. Its a musical that are mainly solos except for two songs and its about a couple and their relationship over the last five years as the title implies. The thing that is innovative about it is the first song is sung by Cathy at the end of the 5 years so its a sad song about how she is hurting from the relationship. The second song jumps to Jamie where he's singing about he just met this amazing girl and is quite in love with her. And then it just progresses backward and forward through time respectively. All of the videos of it are of poor quality video recordings but the actual sound track is way better than any actual performance.

I thought I'd go necromantic on this thread since it's been an annoying day and I've been listening to a lot of Nick Cave, the king of rip your heart out who I was horribly remiss in omitting in my first post.
