what is the most sad song you ever heard?

Everybody Hurts by R.E.M, but it's one great sad song among many. This song all in all reminds you of the pain that is so great that you think life cant go on, but at the same time you hear it and now it's not only you going through pain, depression, loss, abuse, neglect, etc... (the song can apply to many situations).

My condolences by the way to you.

When the day is long and the nigh

the night is yours alone

When you're sure you've had enough of this life

well hang on

Don't let yourself go

everybody cries and everybody hurts

sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong

now its time to sing along

When your day is night alone

(hold on, hold on)

If you feel like letting go

(hold on)

When you think you've had too much of this life

well hang on

cause everybody hurts

take comfort in your friends

Everybody hurts

don't throw your hand

oh no

dont throw your hand

If you feel like youre alone

no, no, no, you are not alone

If youre on your own in this the days and nights are long,

When you think youve had too much of this life

to hang on

Everybody hurts, hang on.....hold on.

"One More Day" by Diamond Rio

I have let myself get lost in that moment of , "just one more day I could have with them, it would get me through this hell", then realize that means the goodbye, so it leaves you wishing, still, for one more day. I had such tears in my eyes the first day I heard these guys sing this song. I think all I heard were the voices, barely any music.

Last night I had a crazy dream

A wish was granted just for me

It could be for anything

I didn't ask for money

Or a mansion in malibu

I simply wished, for one more day with you

Chorus

One more day

One more time

One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied

But then again

I know what it would do

Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl

Then I'd unplug the telephone

And keep the tv off

I'd hold you every second

Say a million I love yous

That's what I'd do, with one more day with you

Chorus

Leave me wishing still, for one more day

Leave me wishing still, for one more day

Tears In Heaven - Eric Clapton

When You're Gone - Avril Lavine

The saddest Song - The Ataris

Concrete Angel: Martina Mcbride

Alyssa Lies: Jason Michael Carroll

They are sad to me because they are both about child abuse. If you watch the concrete angel music video it is even more sad.

Ohmygosh i so was gonna say hurt by christina aguilera before i clicked on this question.

"Self Conclusion" by The Spill Canvas.

I've kinda been there myself. Suicide and all... it's not fun. The song is more of a comfort than a sadness.

possibly "interior the palms of an angel" however I never teared up on it... that is, although, unhappy to take heed to while you're reminiscing on a lost relatives member or the suffering of others. EDIT: "Mr Fletcher's music" "dropping You" - Randy Newman

Superstar by Karen Carpenter. It's such a sad song, and it's sad that she died so young

listen to her beautiful voice:
