I love sad music. These two songs are tied for my favorite:

1. What Hurts the Most, covered by Aaron Lewis of Staind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KItw0KA_Rkg (I think the steel guitar in this one does it for me)

2. I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You by Colin Hay: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u-8bGtAVpA

    Seven Years by Window View. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w4kRHwv6FY Great song about a true story.

    Relative Ease by Write This Down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0B7KnuckSo Saw them perform it live. Made a friendship plate with their bassist. Good show.

    The Tide by The Spill Canvas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAt1ejlO_7Q

    And of course, Snuff by Slipknot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXEKuttVRIo&ob=av2n

    I always bawl my eyes out to:

    Broken- Seether
    Brick- Ben Folds
    Hurt- Whether NIN or Johnny Cash
    and
    I loved her first- I forgot the artist but I bawled like a baby to it when I danced to it with my father at my wedding.

    The ones that immediately come to mind are...
    Corey Hart's rendition of "Can't Help Falling In Love With You."
    Queen's "Who wants to live forever?"
    and REM's Everybody Hurts" (I know it's a positive message, but as a sufferer of depression, it stirs up a lot of emotion)


    I get a lump in my throat every time I hear them. :flowerforyou:
