I actually found that Aphex Twin song more beautiful than sad.=o
But then again, I have a lot of sad and beautiful songs.^^
But depressing?

Well, I looked through my files and arranged them by theme/language...


[b]My Dying Bride[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKKA-CyE0Q4"]For my Fallen Angel[/url]
It's your tearful violin ballad made by a Doom Metal band and with emotional as hell lyrics.

[b]VNV Nation[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ftP6N-b1d0"]Further[/url]
Song means a lot to me.o.o The lyrics describe almost everything I feel. I like sitting back and drifting into the atmosphere of the song. Which is damn well-done, by the way. It's not the tear-jerking sort of sad song, but...it has its own atmosphere.^^

[b]ZUN/Touhou[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbtoDu9egjk"]The Tank Girl's Dream (MIDI version)[/url]
Not really sad, but more...melancholic in a cute way. If only they had kept this version as the official one.xD
[b]ZUN/Touhou[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xdlv9ypFbs"]Vanishing Dream ~ Lost Dream[/url]

[b]X-Japan[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztvMwmPaByg"]Endless Rain[/url]
[b]X-Japan[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2EgeY3Dcns"]Tears[/url]
May look up translations, but every slow thing these guys did is pretty intense. 'Tears' was written for the drummer's father who committed suicide.

[b]Utada Hikaru[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11_iltqXIGA"]Kremlin Dusk[/url]
[b]Gummy[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zK13JK654ak"]As I look into the Mirror[/url]


Love-related:
[b]DBSK[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxBoZbX155A"]Love in the Ice[/url]
[b]T-Ara feat. Davichi[/b] - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x7wqJTwPgg"]We were in Love[/url]
Dunno, they're not really sad and not even slow, but just very beautiful. Actually, I think the fact that they're not slow or flat throughout the song is probably what makes me listen to those.


Oh well, long post lol. Keep the crying coming.=o

Yeah I found it more beautiful but a little bit sad at the same time
Also I said sad/depressing/slow songs could be posted so it counts as a slow song

Sad music is often the most beautiful. Here is a lsit of the some of the most beautiful and saddest music I have heard

My Immortal - Evanescence
Lost in The Echo - Linkin Park
Perfect Day - Miriam Stockley I suppose it isn't technically a sad song but it is very emotional and really gets to me
[Insert Adele Song Here]
Skinny Love - Bon Iver/Birdy I love both versions
Two Beds and a Coffee Machine - Savage Garden
The Crow and the Butetrfly - Shinedown
I Don't Believe You - Pink
Some Nirvana but they are mostly angry
Earth Song - Michael Jackson
Don't Cry/November Rain/Civil War
May - James Durbin
Boulevard of Broken Dreams - Greenday
Pour Me - Hollywood Undead
Paper Heart - David Cook
Diamantina Drover/Cydi/True Blue/Several Others - John Williamson
Welcome to The Black Parade - My Chemcal Romance
Ain't No Sunshine - Soooo many people (Especially David Garrets Violin version)

and many, many more. The most beautiful music comes from our saddest and our happiest moments. Because those are the times that make us who we are.

Well sorry to go on and on like that XD I tried to include links but it wouldn't let me

Gonna agree with Summit. It's a good song; Ellie Goulding is also generally one of the most depressing pop writers (see the entirety of [i]Halcyon[/i]).

[/quote]

Yeah I really like Ellie, she's so unique compared to all of the other pop writers out there
But anyways this song most likely makes anyone cry:

Can't believe I forgot about Imogen Heap. Possibly my favourite singer-songwriter of all time really.

Meh, it's alright she does often get forgotten about in this day and time, she did another great song with Deadmau5 on his newest album that I really like. I haven't heard anything else from her other than Hide and Seek, and Telemiscommunications.

Most of her stuff is in a similar vein. Try not to listen to her unless you're in the mood to be depressed.

Sorry, I am unable to take that song seriously because of Phelous.
Also, an obvious one:

Glad you approve :D I'm curious as to which songs you were referring to though.

For those of you who are rap lovers I'd also say that quite a lot of Eminems work (Especially When I'm Gone) certainly qualify. As do Cursed From Birth and Only 19 by The Hilltop Hoods.

A few more I'd personally recommend are
Everybody Hurts - R,E.M.
Wild Eyed Boy - Birds of Tokyo
Tears Don't Fall - Bullet for my Valentine
Khe Sanh - Cold Chisel
I Will Not Say Goodbye - Danny Gokey
Dust In The Wind - Far too many people
Soaked - Muse and Adam Lambert have both done it
[Insert Ed Sheeran Song Here]
Here We Divide - Dead Letter Circus
Better Than Me/Without You - Hinder
Cry/Goodbye My Lover - James Blunt
Use Somebody - Kings of Leon
The Truth - Kris Allen
What Hurts the Most - Rascal Flatts

And here's one that will get me shot

I will probably have even more for you all later haha

I personally don't like Eminem but some of his slower songs are kinda nice to hear, ones like Mockingbird and Beautiful.

The ones I was referring to were
My Immortal
I Don't Believe You
Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Welcome to the Black Parade

Fair enough, I'm not a huge rap fan either (love rap-rock though). I love Beautiful my favourite of his songs
[/quote]

Same here

Yeah but anyway here's a nice one:

It's just simply beautiful in a depressing way

Despite the heavy use of autotune that still is a very good song, I'd just rather have someone else sing it

Personally, for me sad songs are songs that I can relate too. Maybe the songs I'm about to list you wouldn't really consider "sad" or whatever, but I do because I can relate to them. Also, not all of these songs are songs I can relate too (some songs are just songs I really think are sad), but most of them are.

That's all I can think of right now.

Yeah, I guess people do. I might post some songs later that are "sad" sad songs, but I don't feel like going through my iTunes right now.

Tell me about it. I remember the first time I heard it, I nearly cried. And I can't really relate to the lyrics either. It is just a beautiful song.
