[kj] (OT) Sad Songs

[Steve Hackett]

Did our obligatory first dance at our wedding to Louis' classic.

I always go soppy over Nothing Compares to u by Sinead, From the Flagstones by the Cocteau's and Multinational Corporations by Napalm Death..

        Okay, here's my tearjerking contribution:

         

        The Smiths- I Know It's Over (preferably the live version from Rank)

        Richard Thompson- Beeswing, King of Bohemia, Walking On A Wire (w/ Linda Thompson)

        John Cale's version of Hallelujah (my heart broke when the X-Factor starting using it). And yes, Cale's version is superior to Jeff Buckley's.

        Rolling Stones- Wild Horses, Shine A Light

        Gary Jules' version of Mad World

        The Cure- Love Song (half of the other tracks off Disintegration, too)

        Joy Division- In A Lonely Place

         

        There's others, but that's what I came up with off the top of my head.

         

        Jim.
