Answer 2

"Amor Eterno" is the saddest song ever. It's in Spanish, it means eternal love. I do not know who wrote the original, but Rocio Durcal does the best version of this song. I have translated some Lyrics, you be the judge.

You are the sadness of my eyes, which cry in silence for your love.
I look in the mirror and see my countenance, oh the time I have suffered from your good bye.
Obscure solitude I am living, the same solitude of your grave.
You are the greatest love of my life, my saddest memory of Acapulco.
Oh, how I wish that you have lived, that your eyes would never close, so that I may continue gazing into them.
Eternal love, unforgettable, sooner or later, I will be with you, so we may continue loving.

Answer 3

Fairytale of New York by the Pogues is a good one, anything by the Pogues in general or Shane Macgowan.

John Prine writes some high quality ones also, like that one song that starts off, "There's a hole in daddies arm where all the money goes Jesus died for nothin' I suppose..also Paradise and many others and Prine wrote that first album when he was only 24!

Answer 4

my favorite sad song is Tragedy by thomas wayne , made in 1959. i dont associate this song with a lost love of a girl, but rather with the loss of my mother in 1959, i was just 15 at the time, & her loss was a tragedy to me. it makes me cry when i think about it & iam 63, if you can, check it out.my favorite happy song is Happy Organ, by baby face cortez. of course these two songs are from the 60s so you may not be familiar with them, but check them out. there are so many good songs from the 50s & 60s that are happy & sad. maybe, just maybe , you will be an oldie lover! good luck!

Answer 5

For one that makes me want to cry, it's "Don't Know Why" by Norah Jones. It doesn't make me sad really, it just has a lot of emotion in the lyrics ; )

For my happy song, it would probably be "Banana Pancakes" by Jack Johnson (really tough choice though). I don't know why, but it makes me feel happy : D

Good, Hard Question! lol
