    vtd288 needs to know that the late Pete Ham & late Tom Evans of wrote & recorded "Without You".  It 1st appeared on Badfinger's 1970 album "No Dice."  Harry Nilsson did his version about a year later.  Both Ham & Evans were later suicides by 

    hanging.   

    For songs, I nominate

    "For No One" - Beatles, 1966

    "If You Could Read My Mind" - Gordon Lightfoot, 1971

    "It's Over" - Roy Orbison, 1960   

    "Only The Lonely - Roy Orbison, 1960 

    "Crying" - Roy Orbison, 1961

    Sorry to overload on Orbison, but he really owned this genre through much of his career.
