I was looking in my list of mp3s when I saw the song Photographs and Memories by Jim Croce. For me, this is the saddest song I've heard in my life. The lyrics just say it all -- the guy is just reminiscing good times with his partner through the photographs, saying that he loved her then and that the photos are the only ones left of their good memories. The lyrics just pierce my heart every time I play that song.

How about you, what can you say is the saddest song for you?

It's got to be a toss up as to what the Saddest Song is that I have ever heard. First has to be Seasons in the Sun. Lyric originally by Terry Jacks.
The song reminisces about fun times friends had before the passing of one.

Seasons In The Sun by Terry Jacks
This song just makes me think.

Secondly would have to be Amazing Grace. I'm not sure if the artist who wrote the original lyrics is John Newton or not.

I agree with you. Amazing grace was played in my brothers memorial too. This song is one of the saddest songs i have ever heard. I just hope this song is never played, it may bring back the tearful moment spent at my brothers memorial.

I think the saddest song of all time is "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton, because once you know what the song is about, it is about his actual son who died at a very young age sad. So when you listen to the song, and the lyrics

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

and then,,,
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Even just reading the lyrics makes me sad, it really is the saddest song ever.

Yeah, what makes it sadder is the fact that the song is based on an actual person. I like this one, too.

I think the saddest song for me is 25 MINUTES by Michael Learns To Rock. Can you imagine that. This guy finally realizes that he wants to marry this girl that he loves. Thus he looks for her. Only to find her, right after her wedding. THat's not all, the girl said he's 25 minutes too late. Meaning, the girl was waiting for her all along, it's just that, it came to a point things were just too late. She moved on and got married.

I always imagine a scene that is something like that and I am greatly saddened.

Prayer for Time is a song so sad too. It tells about the truth of the world we have today. It puts life through melody how people fight over fellow people to get on top. How insensitive we are to the needs of other people. There are a lot of selfish people who dominate the world by power and influence leaving those who are helpless crawling even in getting something to eat. It's just sad. Very sad. But the song on a positive note calls for us all to pray.

Is this the one sung by Carrie Underwood? Yeah, it's a sad song as well. It shows what's happening in our world today and how bad it has become.

I agree with photographs and memories, that is a sad song. for me, I think one of the saddest songs I have ever heard is Can't Cry Hard Enough. everytime I hear it, it really just makes me sad. sad


myLot reputation of 93/100. moonchild117 (676)   ranked 764 out of 8,288 in listening to music  2 years ago

Con il tuo nome, no words for grief in English, is the saddest song I've ever heard. I don't know a word of Italian at all, but this song expresses itself through sorrowful melody and Ivana Spagna's heart-wrenching vocals. Besides, the lyrics tell a sad story. It's so sad that every time I hear it, I can feel so much pain in my heart. It really hurts...

the song (and the movie with the same name) called the red shoes. its about a little boy who wants to buy shoes for his dying mom so she will look good for her trip to heaven. i am sure you could hear it on youtube.

I guess it's also because of the lyrics that makes it a sad song.
