What’s The Saddest Song You Know?

Green Fields of France by the Dropkick Murphys
Keep Me In your Heart A While by Warren Zevon
Taps for the Mil, Amzing Grace at a cops funeral
 
Not THE saddest but Last Kiss by Pearl Jam always punches me in the feels
 
Just wanted to bum this to the top for a member.
 
I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off, I sat and wondered
Started hummin' a song from 1962
Ain't it funny how the night moves?
When you just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closin' in.

Now that I'm older never have these words been more prophetic.
Cause for me autumns closing in


 






**side note:

I always try to post artists doing their songs live. It's my little protest against the computer-generated auto-tuned stuff we're asked to put up with these days.


Love me some Vince and Patty!
 
So, some of you know that Pete lives with us. He is my wife cousin. 42 years old with mental and phyiscal handicaps.

when is dad passed and we were planing his memorial ceremony with the VFW, they needed some songs to play. We came up with some and and asked Pete what he thought were good ones. Only one he picked was "Take me home, country roads" by John Denver.

Now any time it comes on the radio, Pete says "That's my dads song, I miss him.."

F me sideways but it still chokes me up.



I can't sing the 2nd verse without choking up.
 
Sorry I am late to this party, lots of great choices already listed. However, I would be remissed to not add this one:
