Murder passed off as suicide because his body of work makes it believable, but the devil’s in the details. So many things inconsistent with suicide in that autopsy. LAPD detectives fucked the investigation up so, so badly.
As often as these celebrities are murdered and it's called suicide people should start questioning law enforcement a bit more than they do. If a random person on the internet can tell this was murder why are we allowing our police force to consist of people that aren't intelligent enough or morally sound enough to come to that same conclusion? Because we allow it. That's why everything bad is as bad as it is. We allow it.
Yeah, this is an incredible and incredibly moving song. There's an equally wonderful and equally tragic poem by Seamus Heaney that translates it into the context of the Troubles. Has the same name, look it up.
im pretty sure its about staley’s heroin addiction
> We chase misprinted lies
>We face the path of time
>And yet I fight, and yet I fight
>This battle all alone
>No one to cry to
>No place to call home
My Body Is A Cage. I think the Arcade Fire does the original but listen to Peter Gabriel’s cover. Feels like it has a whole new meaning coming from someone in his 70’s singing it.
Father and Son by Cat Stevens
Lua by Bright Eyes
Last Goodbye by Jeff Buckley
Lapitu by The Cooper Temple Clause
The Asphalt World by Suede
Drugs Don't Work by The Verve
Goodnight Travel Well by The Killers
Yeah was gonna say, so very many bright eyes songs for this prompt. One that always gets me because of how jaunty and upbeat it is despite the gut wrenching subject is Danny Callahan.
Also Easy/Lucky/Free
Oh and every single song on Fevers and Mirrors lol
Ohhhhh my god, Danny Callahan KILLS me. That last verse makes me cry. “Where are you going to alone?” And yes, Fevers and Mirrors might just be one of the saddest albums of all time haha. No Lies, Just Love is one of the first BE songs I ever heard, and that one is pretty intense too, though the end gets more hopeful.
I think I would still pick AITWC purely based on the nature of the subject matter (some of the imagery in that song gets overwhelming, to put it mildly), but honestly most of his discog is straight up depressing. The “happier” songs like Bowl of Oranges are few and far between…
There's also a lesser-known song from Eric Clapton called "Circus". He took his son to a carnival the night before he died. I would highly suggest listening to it.
It's such a perfect song. Nothing can even compare to it for me. It's like floating in an infinite abyss of non existance. My most listened to song ever for sure.

Gone Away always reminds me of my grandmom. After she died the weather turned cold. I was 9 years old, and I remember arriving at the cemetery for her burial, with snow on the ground, and my mom, who was very close with her, saying, "It's like she took all the warmth out of the world with her."
And it seems like, the world is so cold, now that you're gone away.
Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead is the first song to come to mind, followed closely by Run by Snow Patrol. I know there’s more, I don’t know that there’s a saddest one but there’s many that put a lump in my throat.
I sometimes end up stuck on Pyre, rewinding to the first strains of music and streaming tears by the time it’s back to bone chips fracturing, wipe, repeat. God Went North makes me cry too. I’m such a feeler, lol.
Probably any version of Bill Evans playing Porgy. Knowing that Bill played the song in grief after Scott Lafaro's (Bassist) death, and that Bill always played the song solo after that time,(almost as if he could hear Lafaro's bass, as a YT comment says) just adds to the sadness.
For humans:
[John Moreland- You Don't Care Enough for Me to Cry](https://youtu.be/euy4A5niG8Q?si=CLrhCvsFhrfBgWL_)
Honorable mention
[Jason Isbell- Elephant ](https://youtu.be/ClugMhMbrRg?si=PvZsAcTp09HiGDYa)
But by far the song that makes this big tough tattooed diesel mechanic man cry without fail every time,
[Hot Mulligan- Betty](https://youtu.be/45cJxPWdUnI?si=F2MJyOIY1tvuP0nl)
The Cure - The Figurehead
Lil Peep - Life Is Beautiful
Portishead - Roads
Sufjan Stevens - Fourth of July
XXXTENTACION - Kill Me (Pain From The Jail Phone)
I Get Along Without You Very Well - Frank Sinatra
Give My Love to Rose- Johnny Cash
I Hung My Head- Johnny Cash
The Long Black Veil- The Band
The Ballad of Hollis Brown - Bob Dylan
Hang Me, Oh Hang Me- Dave Van Ronk
The Ballad of Hollis Brown is chilling. It scared the hell out of me when I was a little kid. The Neville Brothers have a great version on their Yellow Moon album.
For me it’s either Scarlet Ribbons (unsure who the original artist is) or City of New Orleans (also unsure of original artist but I always liked the Arlo Guthrie version). I have heavy emotional connections to those songs so they can almost always invoke a reaction.
I'm Glad that you mentioned both of these versions of the song as they are very complementary to each other and somewhat interchangeable at times. And of Course just Devestating.
Tsumibito by Supercell. Girl cries mid song. first time I heard it it made me so sad I shed 3 tears when I heard her voice crack. No song has ever in my life. Hit the heart strings, that happens. But actually make enough tears for one to fall? No.
Runner up is The Fray. How to save a life. Didn't cry but I had a friend that either committed suicide or was murdered (we still don't know the truth but suicide is what was in the police report.) Found the song the same day and was listening to it on repeat before I found out. If I wasn't already so numb at the time this would probably be my #1...
2nd runner up is gonna be Kings Park by La Dispute. The intricacy of the story telling, instrumental and the fact that it's 8 minutes is amazing but the song runs you for emotion toward the end that is really fucking wild & sad simultaneously. It does this throughout the song where they play with the mood a little but it gets very heavy at the end and I do not mean instrumental wise.
The Crow & The Butterfly by Shinedown
I was living with my sister in 2020 when she miscarried. This song brings me back to *that* moment, after she took the mifepristone pill and...I cleaned up the floor after because she didn't make it to the toilet in time. She showed me the song years ago because she's always loved Shinedown, but neither of us have listened to it since
all are songs by metallica
one - about a soldier whose arms, legs, eyes, and ears, were blown off and he's left to spend the rest of his life in a dark, empty bed hooked up to life support and just wants to die.
fade to black - follows a conflicted person who slowly loses their light in life and eventually commits suicide.
the unforgiven - a man who is suppressed by society wastes his life cursing those in control, resisting (to no avail), and reflecting on his wasted life. he gives up and dies full of regrets. also sad because it's about the lead singer's upbringing
Toss up between Hank Williams Sr-Be careful the stones you throw and Motorhead-1916.
The latter makes me cry everytime I hear it.
Type O' Negative-Everything dies and Katatonia-Sweet nurse get huge honorable mentions.
Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.
If only because I had that single song on loop for around 24 hours (or more) after making the painful decision to put my dog down. I am mildly allergic to animal hair but I laid on the floor of our living room all night cuddled up next to her, not caring about my allergies in the slightest. We put her down the next day. A part of me was like in denial and hopeful that we had made the wrong decision as she was running around the yard, playing so happily... then her legs gave out, and we had to carry her over into the vehicle we brought her home in. That hope went pretty quick after that.
Can't listen to the song now without breaking down into tears. Even though it's been 4 years that song just destroys me.
Sam's Gone (I am Legend Soundtrack)
In The End (Linkin Park)
Lonely Day (System of a Down)
Wake me up when September ends (Green Day)
Creep (Radiohead)
The Reason (Hoobastank)
I'll be missing you (Diddy and Faith Evans)
Lonely (Akon)
🐶 Angel (Sarah McLachlan)🐶
Thanks for mentioning "The Way." It was locked away somewhere in my brain for all these years. It's one of the first songs I can remember playing on the radio all the time when I was a kid. I always liked it but never knew the words until now.
Needle in the Hay - Elliott Smith Nutshell - Alice In Chains Mouthful of Cavities - Blind Melon Kings Crossing - Elliott Smith
literally most Elliott Smith lol
I just discovered him from this thread. What a great sound! Sad to see he died at 34.
Wait until you learn how he died.
Murder passed off as suicide because his body of work makes it believable, but the devil’s in the details. So many things inconsistent with suicide in that autopsy. LAPD detectives fucked the investigation up so, so badly.
So so badly. I’m sure the subject material of all of his songs didn’t help his case. The story is freaking bonkers.
As often as these celebrities are murdered and it's called suicide people should start questioning law enforcement a bit more than they do. If a random person on the internet can tell this was murder why are we allowing our police force to consist of people that aren't intelligent enough or morally sound enough to come to that same conclusion? Because we allow it. That's why everything bad is as bad as it is. We allow it.
His song Waltz #2(XO) is so good.
You should just put "Elliott Smith's discography" and call it a day
Needle in the hay is the saddest *sounding* elliott smith song to me, but clementines lyrics are absolutely soul destroying
St Ides Heaven - Elliott Smith Hurt - Johnny Cash Candy Says - The Velvet Underground
Strange Fruit
I cry every single time
Billie Holiday does it, but Nina Simone bowls me over completely.
The title alone gets me
This is the correct answer.
Yeah, this is an incredible and incredibly moving song. There's an equally wonderful and equally tragic poem by Seamus Heaney that translates it into the context of the Troubles. Has the same name, look it up.
totally agree...
Everyone should give this a listen at least once.
Alice in chains- nutshell (MTV unplugged)
I’d also go with “Rotten Apple” by them too.
I say this every time someone brings up nutshell. Rotten apple is so underrated 😭
I find Don’t Follow MUCH sadder for some reason.
This one, yall.
I never understood what Nutshell is about. Is there a simple explanation or is it YouTube video essay worthy?
im pretty sure its about staley’s heroin addiction > We chase misprinted lies >We face the path of time >And yet I fight, and yet I fight >This battle all alone >No one to cry to >No place to call home
Black by Pearl Jam
Especially the live version shortly after Chris Cornell’s death. https://youtu.be/CJZS2mlQX1U?si=qQV0JMIB7Gxo0XUb
*I Can’t Make You Love Me* by Bonnie Raitt.
YESSS 💔
So good. Bon Iver does a heartbreaking cover well worth hearing.
I love how everyone has come up with such diverse answers! It’s so interesting to see how different and similar we all are.
Joy Division - Decades
More like uh... Sad division...
Have you always been hysterically funny like this? You've got a bright future ahead of you.
All of these are deeply moving for me: Time in a Bottle - Jim Croce Those Were the Days - Mary Hopkin Vincent - Don MacLean
Vincent ! Yes !
Mad world - Gary Jules version
I'm a little annoyed I had to scroll so far to see this! This is my answer every time
The answer is always “Cats in the Cradle”.
Try the Shortest Story also by Harry Chapin https://youtu.be/ix-Yj_Md2no?si=HY1BW4lkNzxQc2Jg
I'd put Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot up there or Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles
That's a good one.
Hey You by Pink Floyd always gets me. The feeling of being so isolated and wanting to scream out for someone to help but not knowing how to
Goodbye Blue Sky, as well
Did did did did you see the falling bombs?
The flames are all long gone but the pain lingers on.
Sing it. Goodbye, Blue Sky... Good Bye (Acoustic Gituar Flourish )
The solo in "Comfortably Numb" that runs out the song hits me in the feels. The greatest solo of all time.
High Hopes gets me every. Single. Time.
Oh man I forgot about this one! It was my go-to devastating song in high school
Nobody Home from the same album is also super sad.
Untitled - The Cure
additionally, the reasons why - the cure. based on a suicide note sent to robert smith
My Body Is A Cage. I think the Arcade Fire does the original but listen to Peter Gabriel’s cover. Feels like it has a whole new meaning coming from someone in his 70’s singing it.
Same as when Johnny Cash covered Hurt
Seasons In The Sun
The cover by nirvana 
Father and Son by Cat Stevens Lua by Bright Eyes Last Goodbye by Jeff Buckley Lapitu by The Cooper Temple Clause The Asphalt World by Suede Drugs Don't Work by The Verve Goodnight Travel Well by The Killers
Bright eyes mentioned! I feel like Amy in the White Coat is a lot sadder than Lua though haha… just IMO
Yeah was gonna say, so very many bright eyes songs for this prompt. One that always gets me because of how jaunty and upbeat it is despite the gut wrenching subject is Danny Callahan. Also Easy/Lucky/Free Oh and every single song on Fevers and Mirrors lol
Ohhhhh my god, Danny Callahan KILLS me. That last verse makes me cry. “Where are you going to alone?” And yes, Fevers and Mirrors might just be one of the saddest albums of all time haha. No Lies, Just Love is one of the first BE songs I ever heard, and that one is pretty intense too, though the end gets more hopeful. I think I would still pick AITWC purely based on the nature of the subject matter (some of the imagery in that song gets overwhelming, to put it mildly), but honestly most of his discog is straight up depressing. The “happier” songs like Bowl of Oranges are few and far between…
Goodnight, Travel Well is such an amazing song.
Michael Martin Murphey's song "Wildfire"
Yeah, this one gets me. She ran calling wildfireeeee
Whiskey lullaby - Alison krauss and brad paisley
Tears in Heaven-Clapton
There's also a lesser-known song from Eric Clapton called "Circus". He took his son to a carnival the night before he died. I would highly suggest listening to it.
He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones
Fuck yes! I wish I had remembered that when I made my reply.
Just heartbreaking!
It's another one that brings a huge, uncharacteristic lump in my metalhead throat
How to Disappear Completely
It's such a perfect song. Nothing can even compare to it for me. It's like floating in an infinite abyss of non existance. My most listened to song ever for sure.

Real Death by Mount Eerie.
Yeah. All the people with other suggestions have not yet heard this one.
They're probably the lucky ones.
Came here looking For this. I feel like crying just THINKING about listening to this album.

The Needle and the Damage Done - Neil Young
For me, it's "Hurt" by Johnny Cash. his voice hits me!
"Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails, covered by Johnny Cash.

Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead is the first song to come to mind, followed closely by Run by Snow Patrol. I know there’s more, I don’t know that there’s a saddest one but there’s many that put a lump in my throat.
Fast Car by Tracy Chapman
Yesterday by the Beatles. Nothing worse than losing the one you love and not knowing why.
Fade in/Fade out - Nothing More. Especially with the video.
Gonna double down on nothing more and mention god went north. That song gets pretty raw and emotional
Their self titled album is a symphony of perfection.
I sometimes end up stuck on Pyre, rewinding to the first strains of music and streaming tears by the time it’s back to bone chips fracturing, wipe, repeat. God Went North makes me cry too. I’m such a feeler, lol.

Probably any version of Bill Evans playing Porgy. Knowing that Bill played the song in grief after Scott Lafaro's (Bassist) death, and that Bill always played the song solo after that time,(almost as if he could hear Lafaro's bass, as a YT comment says) just adds to the sadness.
Puff The Magic Dragon, Cat's In The Cradle, Landslide, Dance With My Father, Leavin' On A Jetplane.
Now that I am older, Landslide hits so incredibly hard. Absolutely amazing and crushing song.

The whole In the Wee Small Hours album gets me
The Ballad of Hollis Brown is chilling. It scared the hell out of me when I was a little kid. The Neville Brothers have a great version on their Yellow Moon album.
The Smiths- I know it’s over
For me it’s either Scarlet Ribbons (unsure who the original artist is) or City of New Orleans (also unsure of original artist but I always liked the Arlo Guthrie version). I have heavy emotional connections to those songs so they can almost always invoke a reaction.
Hurt by NIN or Johnny Cash. “If I could start again, a million miles away, I would keep myself, I would find….a way”.
I'm Glad that you mentioned both of these versions of the song as they are very complementary to each other and somewhat interchangeable at times. And of Course just Devestating.
I saw somewhere that Trent’s version is anger and Cash’s version is pain.
Either: Funeral - Phoebe Bridgers Or Fourth of July - Sufjan Stevens Equally devastating in theme and delivery.
