Some good ones there bsmix esp. Mad World and Tears in Heaven. One of my own — Billie Holiday — Gloomy Sunday. The saddest song I have ever heard personally.

Diamanda Galas does a great Gloomy Sunday. I don't care for the standard adaptation of the lyrics ("Dreaming, I was only dreaming" - cop-out).

Pink Floyd's When the Tigers Broke Free gave me those chills you get when something is really deep. Its not so much a sad song as it is...emotional.

Gary Jules-Mad World
The tone of it is just incredibly sad, and depressing.....
although I love it

Sarah McLaughlin-Angel
I always think it's a meditation on death,
and when she sings, 'may you find some comfort here',
it's so sad, because I think there are so many people out there who wonder if death is more comforting than life.
I'm not really suicidal, but sometimes I do wonder that myself.

I have a pretty hard heart, but Richard Thompson's 1952 Vincent Black Lightning makes me cry every time. Townes Van Zandt's Tecumseh Valley is another one.
