For me it’s Of Countless Stars, the final dungeon theme of Endwalker.
I guess no one’s an Enya fan, eh?
OP, do i have a story for you. I got the original Xbox in 2002. I found that one could copy music from CDs to the hard drive, and so i threw some Enya on there so i could listen to calming music while I studied. Later I put some Linkin Park, Incubus, The Offspring, and some other stuff on, and forgot about the Enya music.
Later I bought the X-Men Official Game, and while playing it, found out one could set the game music to stuff stored on the Xbox. So I’m running around, killing stuff with my big ole wolverine claws, and jamming out to Somewhere I Belong. Imagine my surprise as my killing spree continues and I hear “Who can say where the rain goes…”
NGL, it was pretty funny, but my roommate would not let it slide.
He called me Enya for the rest of the year. Or say “I’m Enya Mom”, or “I’m gonna be Enya sister tonight”.
Good times
Wake … from your sleep.
The drying of your teeeeeaaaaars.
Today … we escape.
We escaaaaaape.
nice.
While I don’t think that one is there but they did a psychedelic game experience on Playstation (maybe others) and the way they did some of those songs like pyramid song and how to disappear completely were remarkable.
Pack… and get dressed
Befooooore your father heeeeaaars us
Before… all hell
Breaks loose
No better band to go to for truly heart wrenching songs.
Although I would have to say a better selection:
Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get where I belongIf you guys haven’t seen the movie I Origins, you should watch it. That song plays as the outro and it’s amazing. Don’t watch any trailers though, it completely ruins the film
Build a Little World with Me - Laura Shigihara still hits me like a ton of bricks sometimes, but I’m also a total crybaby who has songs that I can literally break down crying just by reading the name of.
That’s the singer for the ending song for Plants vs. Zombies, and the theme song for To the Moon.
Sometimes it really does have to get worse before it gets better.

The guitar is beautifully excellent
Mine was Mazzy Star, look on down from the bridge. It was mine long before Rick and Morty existed.
Look on down from the bridge There’s still fountains down there Look on down from the bridge It’s still raining up here Everybody seems so far away from me Everybody just wants to be free
You are all wrong, the worlds saddest song is this; https://youtu.be/mGtrNZwqpCY
Poor old Jim’s white as a ghost
He’s found the answer that we lost
We’re all weeping now, weeping because
There ain’t nothing we can do to protect youMe with komm susser todd because it personally relates to me heavily and how I feel about myself.
This but watching Scrubs for me, some of those episodes just hit you like a ton of bricks. It’s cathartic…
“Where do you think we are right now?”
the squealing tires, the busting glass…
the painful screams that I…heard last
Last Kiss. Old school choice there!
Get Better by Alt-J is one of the saddest songs I’ve ever heard, and it hits in just the way you’re talking about. Hurts so good.
