    'This Time the Dream's on Me' written by Johnny Mercer. This has got to be one of the most gut wrenching songs, ever. I love the Alison Krauss version which is on the Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil soundtrack.

    'I'm Gonna Love You Through It' by Martina McBride. I just recently found out that my husband of 32 years has a terminal lung disease. That song makes me cry when I hear it but it says how I feel.

    Another Lonely Day- Ben Harper

    This.

    And "Walk Away" by him.

    The Ballad of Love and Hate (not really sad) - Avett Brothers ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S08RS2xMhgU

    This guy isn't famous (outside of my local music scene), but pretty much all his stuff is heart wrenchingly sad....

    Alan Cormier - his one of his tunes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILryuh75m6A

    He passed away a couple of years ago in a house fire....the band he was in is still performing and is getting ready to finish their next album (Folk Soul Revival). He is truly missed!

    for me there are very few songs that make me want to actually cry:

    Cats in the Cradle by Cat Stevens - reminds me of me and my fathers relationship

    Sullivan by Caroline's Spine - personal reasons

    Hurt - Johnny Cash's version - His wife show's up in the video, she came down the stair's by accident during the shoot and wasn't suppose to be in it.

    Spill Canvas "The Tide".
    Makes me cry every time :sad:

    Really? "So Much" is my favorite song from them.. Nice and sad. http://youtu.be/HRke0V8rQEg


    But I've got some good ones..

    One of my TOP favorites: I LOVE The Transister's "Flow" http://youtu.be/N4oqNNGn5sk
    Perfect when played loudly on a lonely drive home at night..

    The Early November's "Ever So Sweet" http://youtu.be/23mX891OvDA

    The Dreaming's "Fly Away" -- Singer from Stabbing Westward. Love this. http://youtu.be/Sr8KHMPpbAo
