Damn you Euryphaessa! The version I posted has the (imho) better more heart rending video clip (and bunnies of course) ---

Aggressive underground rapper Immortal Technique’s “You Never Know” breaks my heart every time. [![](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5pqiqrnZE44/hqdefault.jpg "Immortal Technique - You Never Know Lyrics") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pqiqrnZE44) ---

[Snow Patrol - You Could Be Happy](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzn8UjhxM-M&feature=related). It’s probably the most depressing non-country song I’ve ever heard. As for country songs, Alan Jackson’s Remember When usually does the trick. ---

> [@Oslo\_Ostragoth](#): > > Dammit. [This song](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsOA-5H_L2g) still gets me, some 20+ years after I first heard it. I firmly believe that this is the saddest song ever written. Thanks to this link, I also found that same group’s version of the song [There Were Roses](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6T2WMEiUUUw) (link goes to another version because theirs isn’t on YouTube, apparently) and now _that_ song gets me a little teary-eyed. ---

[Cold Missouri Waters](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgQNeGPJdcQ) by Cry, Cry, Cry gets me every single time I listen to it. ---
