Unhappy Sad songs say so much

Any discussions on really sad songs? One of mine is The soldier song by the Hollies. Its about a soldier who stumbles upon a house the women who lives therein takes the virginity of the soldier. After he leaves the side the soldier is on wins the war, but his celebrating fellow soldiers ramsack the buildings in the area and murder the woman. It made me sad anyway... other possibilties, Comfortably numb of course,Black by Pearl Jam If I could read your mind by Gordon Lightfoot. Three stars in the sky by Eddie Cochran any other thoughts?

Of course?? I never thought of CN as a sad song. A nostalgic feel I'd say. Man, I can think of many songs REALLY sad in comparison to CN...
