Saddest song I've ever heard.........
Saturday, June 12, 2004 by Old_Crab | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
What's the saddest of one of the saddest songs you've heard. You can go way back if you want. I chucked out the CD player and pulled out my 8 track player and listened to a bunch of old tapes (still playable). One was by Cat Stevens and I got weepy back then a now. Lady D'Arbanville was the song.

'Patches' always makes me cry 
So does 'To Sir, With Love'
I like 'Daniel' by Elton John too

The most famous version is by the Hollies, but versions by Neil Diamond and Olivia Newton-John also made the top 40... It's been covered by quite a few others too, including Cher and The Osmond Bros...

Good One IPlural....
Some Time in our lives
we all feel pain
we all feel sorrow
but
if we are wise
we know that there
is always tomorrow
Lean on Me
when you're not strong
and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for
it won't be long
till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on
You just call lonely brother
when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem
that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load
that you have to bear
that you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
if you just call me
Al Green?

C'Est la Vie Emerson, Lake & Palmer
C'est la vie
Have your leaves all turned to brown
Will you scatter them around you
C'est la vie.
Do you love
And then how am I to know
If you don't let your love show for me
C'est la vie.
(Chorus) Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Who knows, who cares for me...
C'est la vie.
In the night
Do you light a lover's fire
Do the ashes of desire for you remain.
Like the sea
There's a love too deep to show
Took a storm before my love flowed for you
C'est la vie
(Chorus) Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Who knows, who cares for me...
C'est la vie.
Like a song
Out of tune and out of time
All I needed was a rhyme for you
C'est la vie.
Do you give
Do you live from day to day
Is there no song I can play for you
C'est la vie.
(Chorus) Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Who knows, who cares for me...
C'est la vie.
Song from the album Works Vol.1 with an incredible sad music
C'est la vie
Have your leaves all turned to brown
Will you scatter them around you
C'est la vie.
Do you love
And then how am I to know
If you don't let your love show for me
C'est la vie.
(Chorus) Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Who knows, who cares for me...

I can be very sentimental about the ones that I have read here, so I will add two more, by Queen
Who Wants to Live Forever
and
One Year of Love
Who Wants To Live Forever
Words and music by Brian May
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
from us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love forever?
When love must die
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway?
One Year Of Love
Words and music by John Deacon
Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you -
I'm falling apart all around you - yeah
My heart cries out to your heart
I'm lonely but you can save me
My hand reaches for to your hand
I'm cold but you light the fire in me
My lips search for your lips
I'm hungry for your touch
There's so much left unspoken
And all I can do is surrender
To the moment just surrender
And no one ever told me that love would hurt so much
Oooh yes it hurts
And pain is so close to pleasure
And all I can do is surrender to your love
Just surrender to your love
Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you
I'm falling apart all around you
And all I can do is surrender
