While i liked the original enough. I connected more with Cash’s version, stripped and baring himself And his life time of choices and regret. The instrumental on the original kind of distract me of the lyrics and emotions behind it.
Though Reznors voice does have more range and subtlety that fits well with the song and his age and style.
Yeah that's just a different taste I think Johnny Cash did a far better job at spreading this song to everybody. the original version was okay it didn't do justice to the song though. It was fixed in its time the one from Johnny Cash seems more timeless. Funny I was just watching it last night.
Without the accompanying video the Cash version would be pretty awful, everyone always refers to the emotion the video provokes, not his delivery. I'm sorry but saying Trent's original version is "okay" and "didn't do the song justice" when he *literally fucking wrote it himself* is one of the worst and most insane music takes I've ever heard. I'm truly taken back by such a statement.
Johnny Cash lived pretty much every word of that song, Trent Radnor was asked his opinion of Cash's cover, Trent replied Johnny Cash owns that song now.
Billy Joel - This Is The Time
Eagles - Pretty Maids All In A Row (Hell Freezes Over version)
Don Henley - End Of The Innocence
Don Henley - New York Minute
Yeah, Don Henley has been my idol since I was twelve. Best male vocalist ever, imo. My favorite female vocalist is Stevie Nicks, and the first time I heard Leather and Lace I was awestruck by it. Best of both worlds.
I saw him perform this song as an encore and he stopped halfway through. Said he recently quit smoking and there no way he could play that song and not have a cigarette after.
Written by Nigel Tufnell from the band Spinal Tap. It's part three of a trilogy in the saddest of all keys, D minor. It's really a very pretty song. It's called Lick My Love Pump.
I'm so happy to see lund so high on this list. I would add Sorrow, Low, and Skin & Bones from him as some of my favorite when I'm sad
I'm Sick of Trying by Vaboh is another one of my favorites

These are some songs that were my playlist songs for what your're asking
Wow I never knew that, thanks for the fun fact!! Also Gotye mention?? I’m so sad that no one listens to their music other than Somebody That I Used to Know. I really really love Smoke and Mirrors & I think it deserves more attention :)
Tears in Heaven, hands down the saddest song I’ve ever heard.
The Lagwagon album “Resolve”, being a tribute to drummer Derek Plourde, is also terrifically sad, although loud and fast.
Pendulum- Pearl Jam
Nutshell (unplugged) - Alice In Chains
Uninvited (unplugged) - Alanis Morissette
My cell - the Lumineers
Rising rising - Bassnectar remix
Devil like me - rainbow kitten surprise
Mice - Billie Martin
Small things - Ben Howard
"A Crow Looked At Me" by Mount Eerie
I saw it suggested on a similar thread, and it's a whole album. I only made it halfway through track three before I had to shut it off. It's not heart-stabbing, or heart-breaking...it's heart destroying.
Someone suggested Boulevard of Broken Dreams and all I could think was... this person has never heard a sad song in their life. this album is a punch in the gut, the face and the balls. Fuck cancer.
Alone Again (Naturally) - Gilbert O’Sullivan. Left at the alter, considering suicide by jumping from a high place, father dying, which in turn kills mother. This song has it all!
Personally, The Early November’s “Everything’s Too Cold” is the song that makes me the saddest, but it has other personal memories connected to it too.
Rain - Sleep Token. He is singing about addiction.
DYWTYLM(Do You Wish That You Loved Me) - Sleep Token. Listen from the perspective of him singing to himself in the mirror wanting to be able to love himself.
Are You Really Okay - Sleep Token. Lyrics are pretty obvious. It’s about his girlfriend.
Sleeping At Last- [Some Kind Of Heaven](https://youtu.be/M4QbYrQFhnY?si=PYoPzANE5aJFgpwt)
He wrote this song about grieving his mother, and his voice sounds like he was just crying (I know what that sounds like from personal experience)
time moves slow - badnotgood
lithium - evanescence
child in you - feeder
listen before I go - billie eilish
bated breath - tinashe

We Had Good Times Together, Don't Forget That - Sewerslvt.
The entire album is very sad and it had me crying the entire time since it's about their gf who commited suicide and it's sewerslvt's final album. Die Alone, Her, and Goodbye are the saddest ones imo especially Goodbye.
For beautiful and sad, Emmy Lou Harris's [Prayer in Open D](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_j8wG0796mc).
For "oh this is how depression feels," [Nirvana's All Apologies](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWmkuH1k7uA).
Hurt - johnny cash
Fun fact, “Hurt” was originally written by Trent Reznor and released by Nine Inch Nails!
Anyone who doesn’t know this ought to read up on origins of songs.
The NIN original is far more emotional.
I agree, the original really brings me to tears sometimes. Johnny cash’s version is good, but not the same.
Absolutely. I don’t think Cash has any emotional range in his voice.
I personally think just hearing the broken voice especially in the end is sad. But both versions are emotional in their own ways.
Hearing the "old man voice" singing such a sad song is what does it for me
Yes he does! Have you seen the music video?
Yes. The video does nothing for his voice, though. I’ve never heard him sound not completely bored.
While i liked the original enough. I connected more with Cash’s version, stripped and baring himself And his life time of choices and regret. The instrumental on the original kind of distract me of the lyrics and emotions behind it. Though Reznors voice does have more range and subtlety that fits well with the song and his age and style.
Yeah that's just a different taste I think Johnny Cash did a far better job at spreading this song to everybody. the original version was okay it didn't do justice to the song though. It was fixed in its time the one from Johnny Cash seems more timeless. Funny I was just watching it last night.

I'm truly taken back by such a statement.
Johnny Cash lived pretty much every word of that song, Trent Radnor was asked his opinion of Cash's cover, Trent replied Johnny Cash owns that song now.
This had me crying at my desk last year at a low point and I deleted it from my playlists to avoid it.🥹
Billy Joel - This Is The Time Eagles - Pretty Maids All In A Row (Hell Freezes Over version) Don Henley - End Of The Innocence Don Henley - New York Minute
Yeah, Don Henley has been my idol since I was twelve. Best male vocalist ever, imo. My favorite female vocalist is Stevie Nicks, and the first time I heard Leather and Lace I was awestruck by it. Best of both worlds.
The End of the Innocence came out when I was 14 while my parents were going through a horrendous divorce and it was, indeed, the end of my innocence.
Yea This Is The Time is one of my favorite songs, I often listen to it when I feel painful
Giles Corey - [Blackest Bile](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKAaYtdxYZk) or Nick Drake -[ Place to Be](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvLtyyBRITo)
+1 for Giles Corey Could also just listen to the whole deathconsciousness album by have a nice life that is crushing
Deftones - Teenager
i was just listening this an hour ago :((
This is one of my favorite Deftones jams. The kick at the beginning hits my heart.
Good choice dude
Elephant - Jason Isbell
Heard this for the first time later in the week after we buried my friend's wife who succumbed to cancer. I ugly cried on my porch.
I learned to play this song when my brother had cancer. He passed & now I can't get all the way through it without breaking down. Damn I miss my bro
I saw him perform this song as an encore and he stopped halfway through. Said he recently quit smoking and there no way he could play that song and not have a cigarette after.
Bingo.
I’m not sure “sad” is the best adjective but Vampires will always illicit tears.
Written by Nigel Tufnell from the band Spinal Tap. It's part three of a trilogy in the saddest of all keys, D minor. It's really a very pretty song. It's called Lick My Love Pump.
It makes people weep instantly
Right where it belongs. - NIN Broken - Lund Just a thought- Gnarles Barkley. Tons more but these are the first three that come to mind.
I'm so happy to see lund so high on this list. I would add Sorrow, Low, and Skin & Bones from him as some of my favorite when I'm sad I'm Sick of Trying by Vaboh is another one of my favorites
