Xhua Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 "Psycho" Original song of Leon Payne in 1969, but the cover version by Teddy Thompson(Son of Richard&Linda Thompson) became soooo unuttered depressive and sad, massive sould attack! Appeared in the soundtrack of movie [Psycho] in 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 As sammy said, "Wild Horses" and now that is Christmas "Happy Xmas(war is over)", John Lennon. And knowing what happened then, "Just like starting over", John Lennon. "For no one", Beatles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 "Annie" Vanessa Carlton, but like "Bright Eyes" it's not a Rock song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to Songfacts Xhua, The Original (scroll down to song review) by Etta James is also a dynamite rendition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 A tie , for me : " If You Could Read My Mind" and "The Ballad of The Edmond Fitzgerald" both by Gordon Lightfoot -- ok, and no Dylanesque rock/folk debates, please ! :: "when you reach the part where the heartache comes the hero would be me But heros often fail And you won't read that book again Because the ending's just too hard to take" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy1104 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 In my opinion it is Love Hurts by Nazareth which is both a sad song and also one of rock's better pieces of music. Take a listen sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Wild Horses - Rolling Stones Nan, agree totally... All the "Berlin" album by Lou Reed... he´s even got a "sad song"... "Sortly like a soap opera", Steve Forbert, is very sad. "Drive", by The cars, is so sad and so beautifull... I love it... "The Famous final scene", Bob seger... I wonder if I didn´t post this already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzie Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 of course I would pick Tears in Heaven?Eric Clapton (it was my lullaby when I was little) and most of you don't think of Avril as rock but she has some sad songs, like Slipped Away (this song was dedicated to her grandfather. They had a very strong bond and when he died, she wrote this song about her sadness) or Nobody's Home (don't know much about this one) ~Lizzie ( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaitingForMyRocketToCome Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 I'm going to have to say "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton. If you think the lyrics are sad, the story behind it is totally devastating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
