   goodmusiconly says My vote goes to Eels, given the depressing nature of everything E does. But I love that song anyway. The one that comes to my mind is Elliott's "True Love" ... so sad I'm not even going post it! Just makes you want to cry for the poor guy. Now go listen to something happy!

   dangerpilot says I have to remember to listen to these when I get home. my vote is for Ben Folds Five's "Brick". I burst into tears everytime I hear it, without fail.

   scotfree says I got The Eels bug a few years back from a guy I worked with...not only does E pen some of the saddest songs I know of, he also put out some ofthe most joyful.Songs like "Fresh Feeling" and "Things The Grandchildren Should Know" give great counterbalance to his sad stuff. My vote for some of the saddest goes to Lou Reed's Berlin. By the time you get to "The Kids", and listen to the little voices crying over Lou's chant of "they're taking the children away..." - it's hard for your soul to not feel really jarred

   mellowman says Yeah, you can tell this one comes from the depths of E's being. How can one be more emotionally raw? Great song, and the edited version, "It's a Mother(Trucker) is hilarious. If you don't know E's history, check it out. Unique and hard-luck are words that come to mind.
