Where are we now - David Bowie
Waiting for the Miracle - Leonard Cohen
Case of You - Joni Mitchell
Sitting - Cat Stevens
You Don't Miss Your Water (Untill Your Well Runs Dry) - Taj Mahal
Another of my favorite sad/soulful songs is the Lefty Frizzell song.....Long Black Veil..........LONG BLACK VEIL by LEFTY FRIZZELL - YouTube
Can't beat the Johnny Cash version imvho
Sad songs are a Romanian speciality but you don't know them, on the other hand I don't understand English lyrics. Let's try anyway:
Dust in the wind - Kansas
39 - Queen
Sacrifice - Elton John
Layla - Eric Clapton
In the death car - Goran Bregovic
Desenchantee - Mylene Farmer
Loan Me a Dime - Boz Scaggs
Try listening to the original by Lefty Frizzell....I think it is pretty darn hard to beat....it makes the hair on my arms stand on end. ;)Quote:

C'est la vie - Emerson, Lake& Palmer
Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground - Willie Nelson
It's interesting to note that there have been more replies to this thread than to the "Happy Songs" thread!
I'd recommend any song by Evanescence, but "Lost In Paradise" has become my favourite.
I like the version of "Can't You See" Hank Williams Jr. I play it each time I have a disagreement with missus.

Beautiful. Just beautiful.
The Band played Waltzing Matilda - Pogues version
Another soulful song that is one of the best.....Old Man River sung by Paul Robeson.......Paul Robeson - Ol' Man River (Showboat - 1936) J.Kern O. Hammerstein II - YouTube
Doesn't she react by playing Supergirl - Reamonn? :pQuote:

Ragazzo solo, Ragazza sola - David Bowie
( the Italian version of Space Oddity)
:p
:s mash: Bowie has disowned Ragazzo solo, Ragazza sola. Apparently did it phonetically and had no idea what he was singing.
Time in a bottle - Jim Croce

Anyway, the song is great. Or I see it as great because of the movie.... :confused:
The First Cut Is the Deepest - Cat Stevens
Everybody hurts - R.E.M.
What Becomes of the Brokenhearted - Jimmy Ruffin
How can you mend a broken heart - Bee Gees
He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones
It must have been love - Roxette
This is a great song. It saved the life of one of my friends when we were in high school :)Quote:
