Heartattack in a Lay By is the only correct answer.

Collapse the Light into Earth, I'd say.

I don't understand why there is so much opinion that this is such a sad song. It seems almost bright.

It seems to have been kinda overlooked, so if you're into sad songs, I can definitely again recommend these two...

Quote from: Liberation on October 10, 2011, 03:08:51 PM

The Pineapple Thief - Who Will Light Up Your Eyes? and November.

Also, how could I forget: Pain of Salvation - Enter Rain.

Lipstick Sunset by John Hiatt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzwm_y0sqKc

There's a lipstick sunset
Smeared across the August sky
There's a bitter sweet perfume
Hanging in the fields
The creek is running high

And I left my lover waiting
In the dawn somewhere to wonder why
By the end of the day
All her sweet dreams would fade
To a lipstick sunset

Saddest piece of music: Anton Bruckner - Symphony No. 7 - ii. Adagio

Saddest song: Dream Theater - Disappear

Both those pieces have had the greatest emotional impact on me.

fadetoblackdude7 · « **Reply #99 on:** October 19, 2011, 01:14:34 AM »

Idk if it's the saddest song I've EVER heard but November Rain from GN'R comes to mind.

Buddyhunter1 · « **Reply #100 on:** October 19, 2011, 08:47:23 PM »

Pretty much anything by Porcupine Tree

It's pretty hard to decide between Stop Swimming, Heartattack In A Layby, and Sentimental. All three are extremely depressing in their own way lyrically, and they all very sad musically. Stop Swimming is extremely bleak, Heartattack is just stupidly sad (Okay, so theres this man dying in his car... and he doesn't know he's dying... and his family is waiting for him... and he thinks things are about to start getting better...) and Sentimental (along with the rest of the FoaBP album) is the most relatable for me.

Honorable mention: Isolation Years and Ending Credits by Opeth

SeventhSon · « **Reply #101 on:** October 19, 2011, 09:53:14 PM »

John Lennon's 'Mother' gets to me every damn time. It's right when he was going through the primal scream therapy and this song is very representative of it. The end where he's howling "Mama don't go...Daddy come home" is heart-wrenching, dealing with the death of his mom and his dad abandoning the family when he was little. It's a very emotionally strong song, and I never come out of listening to it in a better mood than when I started listening to it.

Resurrecting this thread to say

Particularly: Dreaming neon black, and the blue marble and the new soul comes to mind.
