Well, they asked and, err, some geezers responded.
Rolling Stone recently conducted a poll and here's how their readers voted for saddest song ever written:
1. The Verve - The Drugs Don’t Work
2. Robbie Williams - Angels
3. Elton John - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
4. Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You
5. Sinead O’Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U
6. Will Young - Leave Right Now
7. Elvis Presley - Are You Lonesome Tonight
8. Christina Aguilera - Beautiful
9. James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover
10. Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees
My additions would include The Smiths - Asleep, Jeff Buckley - Last Goodbye & Travis - Slide Show, amongst others.
What else is this list missing? (I know it needs a LOT of help, Will Young?? James Blunt?? Come on!)
*FYI, Rolling Stone - 'Nothing Compares 2 U' was written by PRINCE and 'I Will Always Love You' was written by DOLLY PARTON. Shmucks.
