    this song always sticks in my mind as one of the saddest:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JczEyQHBLEw"]Hank Williams Sr - Long Gone Lonesome Blues

    when I'm feeling down I associate with this one, very dystopian:

    following you PR on OMD, I find this one very sad as well for obvious reasons:

    Gaze at the sky
    And picture a memory of days in your life
    You knew what it meant to be happy and free
    With time on your side
    Remember your Daddy
    When no one was wiser, your Ma used to say
    That you would go farther than he ever could
    With time on your side
    Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes
    Longing to reach them but frightened to try
    Sadly you'd say someday, someday
    But day after day
    The show must go on and time slipped away
    Before you could build any castles in Spain
    The chance had gone by
    With nothing to say and no one to say it to
    Nothing has changed, you still got it all to do
    Surely you know the chance has gone by
    Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes
    Longing to reach them but frightened to try
    Sadly you'd say someday, someday
    But day after day
    The show must go on and you gaze at the sky
    And picture a memory of days in your life
    With time on your side
    With time on your side
    (Day after day the show must go on)
    With time on your side
    (Day after day the show must go on)
    With time on your side
    (Day after day the show must go on)
    With time on your side
    (Day after day the show must go on)

    This is exactly the song I thought of.

    My favorite sad song right now is:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80uSeDhQTW0"]The Handsome Family - My Sister's Tiny Hands - YouTube

    I have probably posted it before but I don't know since mostly I am posting while drunk

    My pick is the ending song in Donnie Darko. It sounds like REM, but I found out that it was actually some other artist or band.
