    Meet on the Ledge: Fairport Convention. They finish off their festival every year with this one. I'm in tears every year.

    Another Mans War: The Levellers. One of their early ones & proof that nothing ever changes.

    Hurt: Johnny Cash. Just heartbreaking.

    "Pardaic My Prince" - Bright Eyes

    In fact most Bright Eyes is severely depressing, but Pardaic My Prince is about a baby drowning in a bathtub, so that one takes the cake.

    Someone Like You by Adele
    Remember me this Way by someone whose name I can't remember

    It is the tone of this song, or other Adele songs that make me cry. Weird, but I cannot turn the station:ohwell:

    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.

    All of the songs in my iTunes, haha. I love a good depressing song. The Antler's album Hospice is my favorite right now.

    The saddest song for me is definitely Dream On by Aerosmith. My father passed away at the end of the first chorus.
