Well I should say Eddie Vedder.....

Has to be Goodbye. Saddest yet most beautiful song (if that even possible) imo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsWAMu7OLjI

i've got our love to remember
that will never change
i have you in my head
and no, i'll never hold you
and i'm still asking why
i guess that this is goodbye

my dreams suddenly seem so empty
i could go on my own, but i feel like playin' dead
and for what feels like the first time
i don't know where you are tonight
i guess that this is goodbye

we lived half our lives together
a hundred years is a lot of weight to bear
and the sun, it may be shining
there's an ocean in my eyes
cause i know that this is goodbye
cause i know that this.. is goodbye

    Footsteps. But especially so the other night, it came up on my playlist and it made me think about the kid at Rutgers who committed suicide....and, well, it just felt brutal...

    It could be indeed. This very line pinpointed exactly how I felt today and I realized just how accurate it really is :(

    Sleight of hand is pretty sad in my opinion.

    The End brings me to tears...

    Also, Off He Goes chokes me up because I think of my old friend Alan every time I hear it... always on the move..always saying goodbye.

    Sleight of Hand is a pretty sad song as well. I knew a guy who was so much like the man described in that song. He had no life other than his mundane job working at a paper factory. It wasn't what he dreamed life would be, but it was what it was.
