L. Diane Wolfe also known as “Spunk On A Stick” is having her first blogfest. We are to list the songs that move your spirit, cut deep into your soul, and threaten to break your heart. Ones that we write to for sadness inspiration. Here are my choices:
Small Bump is a song about losing a baby. It's very sad.
Excellent picks, especially Tears In Heaven!
ReplyDeleteA classic list! Love Tears in Heaven, as well.
ReplyDeleteOoh, how could I have forgotten Imagine - and Tears of Heaven. Great choices.
ReplyDeleteKaren
I completely missed off Imagine, that was my go to sad song as a student.

Going through everyone's lists I see so many songs that could have been on my list. I had forgotten about Imagine. A great song!
ReplyDeleteLovely list of songs!
I love the Eric Clapton song - one of my all time favourites if I'm in a melancholy mood. Not so keen on Imagine...
ReplyDeletegreat list... if lennon's life could summed up in one song... you nailed it or he did. you just brought it to the light.

I enjoyed listening to your choices.
ReplyDeletenice picks
ReplyDeleteTears of Heaven is sad.
ReplyDeleteI think that the assassination of John Lennon is perhaps the greatest crime ever to have been perpetrated in the industry of music.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even think of adding any Beatles or otherwise!
ReplyDeleteHi Clarissa
ReplyDeleteOh...Tears in Heaven makes me cry. I've never heard Small Bump, I'll have to come back to listen.

Great choices, Clarissa! Hope you have a nice weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard The Verve Pipe in eight years or more. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI love the verve. I knew most of the songs you picked, and agree they're melancholy greatness. Thanks for introducing me to some new ones.
ReplyDeleteI listened to your songs while I did other things. As I listened, I realized way too late that I should have joined the blogfest and done my top ten list with sad songs. Duh. Call me slow. Tears in Heaven is one of the saddest songs ever.
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend!
Excellent choices, Clarissa! I haven't thought about that Lobo song for a loooooong time...
ReplyDeleteIMAGINE would've been a really nice and sad song if it weren't for horrid Yoko in the video :(
ReplyDeleteClarissa: I look forward to getting the arc!! Thanks SO much. (I brought my daughter home today from the hospital. Thanks for your prayers! I know every prayer helps!!)

ReplyDeleteImagine is a great song. Tears in Heaven is too sad.

ReplyDeleteI'm not listening to the sad one. My week was depressing enough already.

ReplyDeleteOh, Tears in Heaven... what a sad, sad song. Always makes me well up.
