"Sad/Emotional songs"

I really like sad and emotional songs, because they make me feel better (very strange, I know). So does anybody know any sad or emotional songs I'd like. A few are Your Man by Smash Mouth, War of the Universe by Rhapsody and that one... errrm, Round Here by Counting Crows.

Anybody?

Suede - The Living Dead

Texas- Future is promises
Korn- Kill You
Alice Deejay- Back in My Life
Staind- It's been Awhile

The Verve - On Your Own
Feeder - Love Pollution
Jimmy Eat World - Hear You Me
The Verve - Mysterious Ways
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

...to name but a few...

I've now added

Counting Crows - Raining In Baltimore
Weezer - Say It Aint So
Hole - Dying
Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers - Learning To Fly

to my list :-)

And also System of a Down - Spiders. Not very relaxing, sure, but for some reason it makes me feel like I want to cry...

REM - Everybody Hurts
The Verve - The Drugs Don't Work
Coldplay - Trouble

Hes fantastic.

In The Arms Of Sleep - Smashing Pumpkins

Hang on. XYU could be considered emotional, but its not sad....just angry.

Try

Only In Dreams (Weezer)
In The Arms Of Sleep - Smashing Pumpkins
To Sheila - " "
Undercovers On - Rival Schools
Adagion For Strings - Braber (fantastic)
Soma - SPs

I could go on....

"Your sweet voice" by The Reindeer Section.

The most crushingly sad song that I know is The River by Bruce Springsteen. A lot of songs that a lot of people think are sad are usually happy if you listen to the words - Time Of Your Life, Anna Begins, Karma Police etc etc. But The River is just crushing.
