OT: Songs that make you sad...for whatever reason

This is a melancholy song from Jimmy Buffet, who is better known for his good time party songs.

 


This song is about lying in bed next to a partner that you're about to break up with. It is beautifully sung by Bonnie Raitt. Full of both affection and sadness, she ultimately accepts that "I can't make you love me, if you won't." Probably her favorite performance to me.

I was just going to name this song. I never cared for Bonnie Raitt, except for this song.
 
Some other songs that for me have a sad feel are "The Heart of the Matter" by Don Henley, "The Freshman" by The Verve Pipe,
and though it's from an animated movie, I think Sarah McLachlan's "When She Loved Me" from Toy Story 2 is extremely saddening.

Is this song on the list yet? The number one break up song. Believe it or not, this song is supposed to cheer you up. Personally, I find this song depressing.

 
Jim's been gone 53 years. RIP Jim. You know the song, but this video will really bring it, and the sadness, home.

 
One more. The title kind of fits with the mood after last Friday's game.
