    Not that the lyrics are sad, it just has a sad sound to me.

    I can't make you love me/bonnie raitt
    . . . good call, matador.

    bookends/simon and garfunkel
    . . . good call, gascon.

    here are some others I'll throw in:

    I don't know if many of you will know about this group, but anything by Pedro the Lion would work here.

    eye on the finish line/pedro the lion
    welcome to the cruel world/ben harper
    pleasure and pain/ben harper

    I'll leave you all with a heartbreaking lyric:

    and if you get up to heaven before I do
    I'm gonna tell ya. . .
    it's gonna be cruel there, too
    cruel there, too
    welcome to the cruel world. . .

    When you're really sad, one song is not long enough, you need a whole album:

    Low - The Curtain Hits the Cast

    The Cure - Disintegration

    Try listening to ‘The Beginning of an End’ by Clint Mansell on the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack. It beautifully encapsulates all the loss, horror, and sadness each of the characters in RFAD encountered towards the end of the film.

    Joy Division - New Dawn Fades is pretty sad.

    Speaking of Morrissey, I was at FYE a couple of weeks ago when I passed by The Smiths concert DVD.

    The Smiths? Yet, Warner Reprise won't release a New Order concert on DVD in the states.

    For some odd reason, when I broke up with my ex-girlfriend (all those years ago before meeting my fiancee), I was instantly sad upon hearing "Don't Speak" by No Doubt. I guess the song just summed up how I felt at the time.

    More New Order:

    "I'm not kind that needs to tell you just you want me to."

    Age Of Consent - I've never heard so much emotion squeezed from a synthesizer.
