As far as more sad songs, I'd say Skynyrd's "Simple Man" -- that one always gets to me; as well as "Tuesday's Gone". Just knowing what happened to the Skynyrd guys really makes many of the songs sad.

| Ha! Only the wettest of wet tarts would do anything other than snort with derision at Bright Eyes and as for The Streets - you're having a laugh right? Dry Your Eyes Mate? That's a comedy song surely! |

| In one single moment your whole life can turn 'round I stand there for a minute starin' straight into the ground Lookin' to the left slightly, then lookin' back down World feels like it's caved in - proper sorry frown Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us I can change and I can grow or we could adjust The wicked thing about us is we always have trust We can even have an open relationship, if you must I look at her she stares almost straight back at me But her eyes glaze over like she's lookin' straight through me Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity When they open up she's lookin' down at her feet Dry your eyes mate I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up There's plenty more fish in the sea Dry your eyes mate I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts But you've got to walk away now It's over So then I move my hand up from down by my side It's shakin', my life is crashin' before my eyes Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh 'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me There's things I can't imagine doin', things I can't imagine seein' It weren't supposed to be easy, surely Please, please, I beg you please She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she's blessed with She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures By pushin' my hand away to my chest, from hers Dry your eyes mate I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up There's plenty more fish in the sea Dry your eyes mate I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts But you've got to walk away now It's over And I'm just standin' there, I can't say a word 'Cause everythin's just gone I've got nothin' Absolutely nothin' Tryin' to pull her close out of bare desperation Put my arms around her tryin' to change what she's sayin' Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in Look into her eyes to make her listen again I'm not gonna ****in', just ****in' leave it all now 'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down You're well out of order now, this is well out of town She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight Turns around so she's now got her back to my face Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away Dry your eyes mate I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up There's plenty more fish in the sea Dry your eyes mate I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts But you've got to walk away now It's over I know in the past I've found it hard to say Tellin' you things, but not tellin' straight But the more I pull on your hand and say The more you pull away Dry your eyes mate I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up There's plenty more fish in the sea Dry your eyes mate I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts But you've got to walk away now.

| Without a doubt The Charlie trilogy by The Whitlams. Tim wrote it after the original guitarist of the Whitlams, Stevie, threw himself off a cliff. Squeezes my heart every time. Highlights of the lyrics include #1 "There's a problem there's no sleepy girl to wrap you in her loving arms There's a lizard on the doorstep and there is music in my head... You might be unworthy But you remember what I remember And that's enough to care You don't fall off the rails" #2 "Charlie you're not my charlie anymore Screwing it up You're killing your soul With an audience looking on.. If I hadn't left early last night I would have made a speech to you How you're not the only one You're going to hurt.. So where's the problem you can ask if you keep your head up. But the road is long and you're falling asleep at the wheel... Makes it all feel better, does it? Makes you feel like heaven, does it? You loved it and you spent accordingly" #3 "The night pressing in On his weary mind There's a half eaten moon in the sky Nothing is calling him back to bed and no one is saying goodbye See him offering himself to the world staring down from the 56th floor Yeah, and i'd be happy just to catch him again We go out because we go back, and back and back" Actually to make things really sad.. there's this other song about Stevie called Laugh in their faces.. and one about the other founding member Andy.. and his gambling addiction (Blow up the Pokies).. Andy hung himself some six months after the album that Pokies is on was released.. cheers

| Yeah, I decided to go on ebay, because amazon.com has them all for like 20 or 25 dollars plus shipping, and I have been waiting for like a month now to get it. I'm seriously starting to think that I got robbed.  If all else fails I think I'm gonna have to pay the extra on amazon.
