The World’s Most Saddest Song
[ad]
I was scouring through my 4000+ song vault in search for this tune, and I found it in the form of Luther Vandross’ Dance With My Father. Is there a sadder song that this? And by sad I mean tearjerkers and not the ones that make you wanna commit suicide.
“Sometimes I’d listen outside her door/And I’d hear how my mother cried for him/I’d pray for her even more than me.”






Oh boy!!! Yes yes yes….absolutely heart-wrenching!! Now, where is my CD??? Luther Vandross the ultimate singer of all time. His voice is unmatched till today!
Absolutely~! I can’t listen to this song without ending up with 2 swollen eyes. So I avoid ever listening to it. My friends know me well enough not to play this song when I’m around..
It’s one of my fave songs.
nooo..this song will definately make me cry
Nice song indeed. But…if you’re talking about suicide….
Have you guys heard ‘Gloomy Sunday’? They called it the ‘Hungarian Suicide Song’ that inspired hundreds of suicides :p Read more about it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloomy_Sunday
and no…. don’t listen to it too much :p
I love this song! I still play it even until now! And yes, it’s truly a sad song, especially that now he’s no longer around, RIP..
Oh my God! Sad songs….I have so many favourites that never fail to make me cry.
But my tribute will be to may all time favourite artist/singer/song-writer – the legendary John Denver
I’m Sorry by John Denver
I’m sorry fro all the lies I told you
I’m sorry for the things I didn’t say
But more than anything else
I’m sorry for myself
I can’t believe you went away
I’m sorry if I took some things for granted
I’m sorry for the chains I put on you
But more than anything else
I’m sorry for myself
For living without you
:’(
sad sad sad song… now im not in the mood already….
Sobfest anyone? Yeah this song always gets to me too.
Another one is Josh Groban’s ‘To Where You Are’. His puppy dog eyes don’t help neither…
For the broken-hearted, try Groban’s ‘Broken Vow’.
Gosh Daniel, you’ve got me weeping all over the office today. Watched ‘The Notebook’ again last night and ended up crying again. So today its officially puffy eyes day for me.
Been pulling out all my tearjerker songs and had to mentioned another classic.
Concrete Angel by Martina McBride

yes yes.. i absolutely agree..
I don’t cry when I hear this song.. I bawl!
This song and Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle..
I guess it has to do with being a father/daughter song..
But as sad as it makes me, these songs are amongst my favourites!
hugs…:)
Thanks all, yes, this song I hold it very dear to my heart. And I can’t stop the swelling of the eyes whenever I hear it.
i don’t think i’ve come across a song that’s sad enough to make me cry when i listen to it. only songs that reminds me of certain phases in my life makes me cry- not the song itself.
yeah, the video clip features many top artistes too yah?All dedicating the song to dearest family members.the song “Gloomy Sunday” mentioned by JC drove many people to suicide!i heard the music once and its kinda…depressing..
hey. i think i know ur girlfriend.
emelda from kk rite?
swimmer of some sort rite?
tihtahpah Okay, I suppose. But this one, it doesn’t matter which phase of my life, it still can bring me to tears, and I’m unashamed to admit that.
JuN jUn XVII Yes, I remember the video – classic stuff. RIP Luther Vandross. Not gonna check out “Gloomy Sunday” – I love my life. LOL.
michelle Yes. Why ah?
hey daniel,the last night i was reading this post,and i found that of gloomy sunday…
And then i started to read,and it sounds like interesting…
And finally i donwloaded the song,and im still here xD
I dont know what were thinking the people of 1933… :S
And i like this instrumental song,maybe when the violins appears can sounds a little sad…
i love this song and there’s tears on my eyes everytime i hear this song, YES everytime..i love my dad so much!
tincho sambora I’m not gonna download that song. LOL.
shana The same here.
For me, Derek & The Dominos – Layla is a tear-jerker.
Zen Really? That song never had any impact on me at all, I’d say Eric Clapton’s other song has a better effect, Tears in Heaven.
Cancer by My Chemical Romance. It’s so sad yet so beautiful =]
For me,another sad song is Save the world… :S
Maybe it isnt sad,but i use to hear it when im a little sad,melancolic… And the song is perfect for that state…
But it doesnt help too much xD
Moi I’ll get my hands on that song.
tincho sambora Hmmm, I can’t find the sadness in that song, it’s more like uplifting for me. LOL.
Did you ever hear the Everly Brothers song” Ebony Eyes “? The guy was in the army , he couldn’t get home to marry his girl. The Padre said send for her and he’ll marry them in the barracks, the plane crashed and killed her , How can you get sadder than that
interesting post. have u listen to Elvis Presley’s “Don’t Cry Daddy” yet?
Peter deBullion – That’s so so.
cicak – Yes I did, but it doesn’t have the effect on me as this tune. Maybe it’s because of my personal experience.
I think Prince’s “Another Lonely Christmas” is the saddest song ever. How he drinks himself almost blind on Christmass to forget, man that is rough.
