Best Ten Saddest Songs

Everyone has a favorite unhappy track, a song that makes them cry, a tune that instantly recollects a misplaced love, a time prior, gone and in no way to be regained. A grasp of the unhappy track, Kris Kristofferson, sang "i would exchange all my tomorrows for a single the previous day" and the lyric resonates. It could be lost love, a lifeless guardian, it could be horror at what man does to man, what man does to planet, but somewhere it's been crystallized in music.

I've picked my list of top ten sad songs: songs that I hear with a mixture of discomfort and enjoyment, although the enjoyment is traditionally tempered with the memory of someone or anything long past. More youthful readers could comprehend some classics or comprehend present types; older readers will ask the place the time went. The saddest songs bring again the deepest memories.
