OP, do i have a story for you. I got the original Xbox in 2002. I found that one could copy music from CDs to the hard drive, and so i threw some Enya on there so i could listen to calming music while I studied. Later I put some Linkin Park, Incubus, The Offspring, and some other stuff on, and forgot about the Enya music.
Later I bought the X-Men Official Game, and while playing it, found out one could set the game music to stuff stored on the Xbox. So I’m running around, killing stuff with my big ole wolverine claws, and jamming out to Somewhere I Belong. Imagine my surprise as my killing spree continues and I hear “Who can say where the rain goes…”
NGL, it was pretty funny, but my roommate would not let it slide.
He called me Enya for the rest of the year. Or say “I’m Enya Mom”, or “I’m gonna be Enya sister tonight”.
Good times
Get Better by Alt-J is one of the saddest songs I’ve ever heard, and it hits in just the way you’re talking about. Hurts so good.
alt-J - Get Better (Official Video)
Wake … from your sleep.
The drying of your teeeeeaaaaars.
Today … we escape.
We escaaaaaape.
nice.
While I don’t think that one is there but they did a psychedelic game experience on Playstation (maybe others) and the way they did some of those songs like pyramid song and how to disappear completely were remarkable.
Pack… and get dressed
Befooooore your father heeeeaaars us
Before… all hell
Breaks loose
No better band to go to for truly heart wrenching songs.
Although I would have to say a better selection:
Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get where I belong
If you guys haven’t seen the movie I Origins, you should watch it. That song plays as the outro and it’s amazing. Don’t watch any trailers though, it completely ruins the film
the squealing tires, the busting glass…
the painful screams that I…heard last
Last Kiss. Old school choice there!

tacosanonymousSometimes it really does have to get worse before it gets better.
This but watching Scrubs for me, some of those episodes just hit you like a ton of bricks. It’s cathartic…
“Where do you think we are right now?”
Weapons grade sad song: Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel.
The saddest song is 2 Legit 2 Quit of you think about it because Hammer did quit, and if he wasn’t legit enough what chance do we have
other_catMy favorite go to sad song nuke is, strangely enough, “Alone Again (Naturally)” by Gilbert O’Sullivan
Loreena McKennitt is not in competition with Enya. Them ladies be chill.
Fair. She would never. She’s not that guy.
But I am that guy, and I have a favorite ethereal new-agey soprano. 😂

SENTENCED - No One There (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
For me it’s Of Countless Stars, the final dungeon theme of Endwalker.
For me it is:
“I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life
I hope you’ll be a star
In somebody else’s sky
But why
Why
Why can’t it be
Why can’t it be mine”
Man. My friend was a huge Pearl Jam fan back in the day. He would sing this song every time we went out to any place doing karaoke. I got my heart absolutely torn apart once, and he really helped me through it. When I just didn’t want to be alone he was down for me to come by every night and we’d sit in his garage and drink beers and smoke and talk, and he played me this song—now, I grew up on Pearl Jam in the 90s. Loved them. But I hadn’t kept listening to them.
But one night when I was avoiding being alone with my thoughts and he was there for me, he told me I needed to listen to that song again. He played it and Jesus Christ, man. I never felt so personally seen by a song I’d known my whole life.
I would recommend you Chris Cornell’s album “Songbook”.
You probably know all the main Grunge bands but Mother Love Bone is not that well known. I totally would recommend!
Mine was Mazzy Star, look on down from the bridge. It was mine long before Rick and Morty existed.
Look on down from the bridge There’s still fountains down there Look on down from the bridge It’s still raining up here Everybody seems so far away from me Everybody just wants to be free
Red Dirt Girl, Emmylou Harris
“He told her - little sister, gonna ride the wind, up around the moon and back again. Well, he never got farther than Vietnam, I was standing there with her when the telegram come for Lillian.”
And “nobody tells you 'bout the blues when you got 'em, you just keep falling cause there ain’t no bottom, there ain’t no end, least not for Lillian.”
AND
“Nobody knows when she started her skid, she was only 27 and she had 5 kids. Might have been the whiskey, might have been the pulls, might have been the dream she was trying to kill.”
Such a tearjerker, a very cathartic song when you need to cry. Boulder to Birmingham too.
Don’t forget Angel From Montgomery. John Prine sure didn’t sound like Emmylou, but he somehow wrote just as poignant a song about being a woman, even if its tragedy was smaller.
Yeah I have a “sad” list for when I need to cry. These and Sweet Old World by Lucinda Williams and Road by Nick Drake, because he didn’t find a road to take him home, and the stories about how he was so depressed he’d go into the studio and lay flat on the floor to record the songs.
John Prine also has that Sam Stone song, that is less poignant and more aggressively sad but so real sounding too.
MatomboAnd when the laaaaast eegal fliiies, Over the lasst crumbling montaaain!
dorumonMe with komm susser todd because it personally relates to me heavily and how I feel about myself.
Build a Little World with Me - Laura Shigihara still hits me like a ton of bricks sometimes, but I’m also a total crybaby who has songs that I can literally break down crying just by reading the name of.
That’s the singer for the ending song for Plants vs. Zombies, and the theme song for To the Moon.

The guitar is beautifully excellent
Espelho - João Nogueira!
Poor old Jim’s white as a ghost
He’s found the answer that we lost
We’re all weeping now, weeping because
There ain’t nothing we can do to protect you
