I'm not feeling very sad right now, but I certainly have in the past. And there's nothing like a sad song when you're feeling sad to make you feel good/worse. Let's share! Turns out all of mine sound the same, so it's good I'm making this thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9Jr-yPloRw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2qJ7S11J84 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyM7vLyQ9XQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQxrHqKFFqc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3SjPVAY6MM

Radiohead's How To Disappear Completely, which doesn't make me feel better, but it does make me feel absent and elsewhere.

Beneath the Surface by Dream Theater. A song about the timing never working out between two romantically-interested people, until all the good stuff fades away and all that's left is hurt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOYjhbG_c2k

Sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXMtClc844s Empty Chairs at Empty Tables is a bit of a tearjerker. But Les Mis has a lot of Tearjecker songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSzHAOkCDNU thrakkorzog has a new favorite as of 11:09 on Jul 5, 2014 |

Little Motel by Modest Mouse really got me, mostly because out-and-out sad songs aren't something they do often (black-comedy existential dread tends to be more their thing). The video might push it a little too far, but it still doesn't help/hurt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6GiYGaVEpg
