Sad songs

corosto · 09-13-2007, 04:51 AM

Heey.
Well, my boyfriend went off to college and I miss him a lot. I only see him like two days a week and so I've been looking for kind of like "I miss you" songs. I don't like country at all but one of the best songs I've found it "The Dance" by Garth Brooks. I listen mostly to indie music but whatever's good, I'll listen to. I'm mostly looking for good lyrics though. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thank you so so much.

Oh boy, want to be careful with the sad songs and you'll just end up making yourself really depressed.

Most depressing album I ever listened to was Dead Can Dance's "Beyond the realms of a dying sun". Not very uplifting.

Haha, depressing music? Check out Shining. But they suck mostly, and their "I want to die, I cut myself on stage" attitude is not that cool :P

not really depressing but sad: azure ray or maria taylor! their songs are kinda romantic I guess. I copied some lyrics by them for a birthday card to my boyfriend and he liked it...

check out most stuff off broken social scene's 'you forgot it in people', although there's a fair chunk of light-hearted music that's almost filled with hope, i find the album fairly great when i'm in a sad mood. stars, too. that's a band that'll make you miss someone.

also, check out cursive ('domestica', and t'he ugly organ' primarily). tim kasher has talent.

Sorry, But i listen to the hip-hop most of time and just know a single Sad Song and that is "my heart is beating".

Most songs by The Smiths are quite depressing. I still love them though.

Opeth's Damnation. For some reason that whole CD makes me feel gloomy.

Zombeels · 01-24-2008, 08:58 PM

The song used at the end of Donnie Darko

Gary Jules - Mad World

Also:
John Lennon - Mother
Wilco - Misunderstood

i know not many people like them, but mcr's "demolition lovers" is an excellent sad song.

Dashboard Confessional - A Plain Morning

If you like R&B, I know a lot, particularly--
Aaliyah - I Miss You (which perfectly fits your situation).
