Sad Love Songs

Be it break ups, or just long distance relationships, or even the feeling of being all alone, we have all sat and listened to a few sad love songs. Sometimes with others and sometimes by ourselves. In fact, a compilation of sad love songs would make a great gift for a long distance lover. Just to remind how much you miss them and your romance. Here is a list of few of the best love songs, in no order of priority.

Sad Love Songs that Make You Cry
These sad love songs that will make you cry were on my best friends play list for about a month after he broke up with his girlfriend.

• Landslide - Stevie Nicks
• Fix You - Coldplay
• Your Sweet Voice - The Reindeer Section
• I'm Not In Love - Tori Amos
• Inside Of Love - Nada Surf
• Collide - Howie Day
• Lost Cause - Beck
• Missing - Evanescence
• Understanding - Evanescence
• I'm Not Crying- Flight of the Conchords
• Delicate - Damien Rice
• Needs - Collective Soul
• White Flag - Dido
• Bell Book and Candle - Eddi Reader
• Bright Lights - Matchbox 20
• Courage - Sarah Polley
• Gloomy Sunday - Sarah McLachlan
• Back To Black - Amy Winehouse
• I'm Lost Without You - Blink 182
• November Rain - Guns N' Roses

These songs even work when you just sing along. Like I remember, when my friend used to be listening to Dido's White Flag, I used to simply sing along, it just had that effect.

Sad Songs that Make You Cry
These sad songs that make you cry can make anyone emotional. I mean, even if you are not really upset or sad, they can make you want to listen to these songs intently and think about nothing.

• Everything Reminds Me of Her - Elliot Smith
• Fade - Staind
• Separate Lives - Phil Collins
• Cry - James Blunt
• Screaming Infidelities - Dashboard Confessional
• The Things You Said - Depeche Mode
• All The Things You Said - Tatu
• What Sarah Said - Death Cab for Cutie
• Some Things Last A Long Time - Daniel Johnston
• I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You - Colin Hay
• My Immortal - Evanescence
• I'll be there for you - Bon Jovi
• Falling Out Of Love - Aqualung
• Like You'll Never See Me Again - Alicia Keys
• The Scientist - Cold Play
• Already Los t- Rainer Maria
• Slipped Away - Avril Lavigne
• What Happens When The Heart Just Stops - The Frames
• I Can't Make You love Me - Bonnie Raitt
• This Years Love - David Gray

If you believe in listening to music while you go about doing your regular work, then do not listen to these songs. A very good friend of mine, once, stopped on the track while walking and was lost in "Slipped Away" by Avril Lavigne. It can be a dangerous thing to do, don't you think?

Bonus Sad Love Songs
I just counted the number on songs out of my list that I have given above. The number is an even 40. I just felt that it would be injustice to the other sad love songs in the playlist if I ignore them. So, here they are.

• Send In The Clowns - Judy Collins
• Nothing Compares 2 U - Sinead O'Connor
• Listen To Your Heart - DHT
• So Low - Self
• Closer - Joshua Radin
• I'll Catch You - The Get Up Kids
• Clumsy - Our Lady Peace
• I Know It's Over - Smiths
• Elevator Love Letter - Stars
• Why - Annie Lennox

So, now I have an even 50. Sounds like a better figure than 40 right? Well, there are a few more songs like Pictures of you by Cure and One by U2, but the ones I have given in the list, are a better pick, in my opinion.

Your opinions about these songs may differ from mine. If you wish to comment on that, you are more than welcome. These were my favorite sad love songs. This is where I sign off! Bye!
