The two saddest songs I know are:

I hope you're kidding about "Breakdown" by Mariah Carey, I really do...

Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah takes that title HANDS DOWN. The chord progressions of that song can make even frolicking puppies seem depressing

Patty Griffin - Top of the World
Sia - Breathe Me

I totally agree with metman
Antony and the Johnsons - Hope there's someone

 

[Cottonmouth]

Cup Of Coffee - Garbage

Draconian - She Dies

basically most of their songs...

When I Get Where I'm Going-Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton

Tim McGraw- Please Remember Me

All so sad but I like them all

 

[ZeroPoint84]

Sia - Breathe Me
Portishead - Roads
The above two make me sad because a friend put them on a mixed cd, and I knew she'd been feeling incredibly depressed in the previous few months, to the point where we were worried we'd lose her, so listening to these songs it almost felt like she was singing it herself.

Sigur Ros - Vaka (untitled #1) (just because it's so damn beautiful.. but also because of the sad filmclip)
Fiona Apple - Oh Well (the way she sings "Oh well" breaks my heart everytime I hear it)
Sarah Blasko - I could never belong to you
Bjork - New World (because of what has happened to Bjork's character in Dancer in the Dark)

 

[Cammtl]

Don't take the girl--by Tim Mcgraw.

One of my all time favorites. Great song.

It's a bit overindulgent, but soo sad.
