Top 5 Sad Songs

Holy smokes, it’s my last blog post of the term. Wow, that went by fast. Okay, so I need to keep this one short. I can’t go over 200 words. I don’t have enough short ones for the assignment. Okay, that doesn’t matter to anyone but me, so I’ll get on track.

I planed to do a top five of the saddest songs for this post, but because of other assignments and deadlines I some how managed to neglect the idea enough that I don’t think I’ll be happy with the finished product, so I’ll probably amend it in the future. Anyone who wants to should post their own top five or just suggest songs they think should be on it. Here’s what I have.

1. The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll – Bob Dylan
2. Slim Slow Slider – Van Morrison
3. Nowadays Clancy Can’t Even Sing – Buffalo Springfield (Neil Young)
4. Atlantic City – Bruce Springsteen
5. Everybody’s Been Burned – The Byrds

Like I said, I might amend this one, and I am. I won't change the list, but this should have been number one. I don't know how it slipped my mind.

The Replacements - You're Getting Married

PS. Don't mind the name of the youtube video. They got it wrong, but it had the best audio. Also the version on the CD I have is better and sounds sadder, just saying.

  1. Atlantic City is such a sad song AJ. I haven't heard the one by The Byrds, I'll have to check it out.
