"Hole In The World" - The Eagles

This was one of my favorite songs when I was in junior high.

Go wikipedia the song "Gloomy Sunday", aka the "Hungarian suicide song". Supposedly this song caused dozens of people to kill themselves when it was first played over the radio.

It's gotta be:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6iUBd2D38E

Massive Attack - Teardrop

I don't listen to it much, especially with the video, 'cause it reminds me of abortion. It's all really sad.

I was going to post "Mad World" as well but it's been posted twice already so let's go with Lou Reed's "Perfect Day"

here it is!

and one more- "Rabbit in Your Headlights" (awesome video too!):

here

and maybe one more- Aqualung's "Strange & Beautiful":

What? What? Nobody has brought up Hurt by Johnny Cash? I'd think that to be an instant shoe in.

Personal favorite of mine though is Pink Floyd's High Hopes

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ioavsW0tgI


Both, while sounding so beautiful, hold their own sentimentality, appearing to be the final goodbyes of each artist after their long careers.

I like a lot of the songs here.
I don't know my song, I have a variety.
Numb - Linkin Park

But here is one song that I might consider my sad song:

Dreaming - System of A Down
