    Some of these you'll probably know. Others maybe you won't. They range the gauntlet as far as style and artist.

    Sad Songs (Say So Much)-Elton John

    I'm Alive-Jackson Browne (This one got me through a really tough time. It's about a breakup, but it's both sad and looking up. Chorus is "Yeaaaaaaaah/Now I'm rolling down this canyon drive/with your laughter in my head/gonna have to block it out somehow/to survive/cuz those dreams are dead/and I'm alive")

    Hurt-Johnny Cash (truly great song)

    He Stopped Loving Her Today-George Jones

    Back To December-Taylor Swift

    What Hurts The Most-Rascall Flats

    The River-Bruce Springsteen

    Goodbye My Lover-James Blunt

    I Will Always Love You-Whitney Houston

    That's My Job-Conway Twitty (this is my favorite song of the bunch. About a man and his relationship with his father throughout his life.)

    Gone Too Song-Michael Jackson (saddest song on here. Pure sadness, no looking up at all. About Ryan White, a kid who, through no fault of his own, contracted AIDS due to a blood transfusion while being treated for his hemophilia, and died very young)

    All Good Things-Jackson Browne

    Every Breath You Take-The Police

    Last Kiss-Several Versions, including J. Frank Wilson and Pearl Jam (Wilson's is better)

    Whiskey Lullaby-Brad Paisley, Alison Krauss

    In The Ghetto-Elvis Presley

    Teen Angel-Mark Dinning

    I Will Remember You-Sarah McLachlan

    Keep Me In Your Heart-Warren Zevon

    Behind Blue Eyes-The Who

    Elenor Rigby- The Beatles

    Yesterday-The Beatles

    I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry-Hank Williams

    Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word-Several versions, original is Elton John, but I prefer the Joe Cocker version

    Always On My Mind-Several, but the best is hands down Willie Nelson

    Cat's In The Cradle-Harry Chapin
