From easy come and easy go, Now you're not so carefree. You found the thorn behind the rose, You took it, oh, so badly. Lost inside yourself, You've gotta break out soon. You've gotta try again To hear a brand new tune. Once easy come and easy go, You just hear sad notes lately. You used to fly and chase the wind, I don't know you lately. Don't take it, oh, so bad, Things are gonna change. Don't make it, oh, so sad, The sun will shine again. Please don't lock me out, What's it all about? I'll change it all completely. Won't you let me in, Don't you need a friend? If I…

Two pages and no one had yet mentioned this??
The song by itself is melancholy enough, but add in the video... *sobs*
Think Johnny died not long after making the video.
JC didn't write the lyrics to 'Hurt' It was written by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, there's quite an eerie story about that song and how It was written.
Death Letter Blues by Son House;
I got a letter this mornin' I say now, how do y'all reckon it read? I said I got a letter this mornin' I say now, how do y'all reckon it read?
It said, "Hurry, hurry!" "'Cause the girl you love is dead"
You know, I grabbed up my suitcase And I took off down the road I grabbed up my suitcase And yeah, I took off down the road
You know when I got there She's layin' on a coolin' board Well, I walked up right close And I looked down in her face
Yeah, ooh Yeah, I looked down in her face
You know she was good ol' gal She got to lay here 'til the Judgment Day
Well, it looked like ten thousand people Was standin' round the buryin' ground Yeah, looked like it was ten thousand people They were standin' round the buryin' ground
You know I didn't know that I loved her Until they began to let her down
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

You want to hear real heartbreak listen to Johnny singing Evening Train its stunning. He did not write it (Hank Williams I think ) but hearing it after his wife died crushed me . He always wanted to die before her but she went first .He was quoted after she died "the pain of her being gone is more than I can stand ". 4 months later he died of a broken heart

This specific version of this song. It's the nicest thing ever recorded.

Wonderful, funky riff, with a marvellous trill, but the lyrics...so powerful. I want this played at my funeral.
In another life You might have been a genius In another life You might have been a star In another life Your face might have been perfect In another life You'd drive a better car
In another life All your jokes are funny In another life Your heart is free from fear In another life You make a lot of money In this other life Everything is clear
In another life You're always the hero In another life You always win the game In another life No one ever cheats you In another life You never have to change
In another life Your friends never desert you In another life You never have to cry In another life No one ever hurts you In this other life Your loved-ones never die
But this is the life you have This is the life you have This is the life you have This is the life
In another life You're always the victim In another life You're always the thief In another life You are always lonely In this other life There is no relief
In your real life Treat it like it's special In your real life Try to be more kind In your real life Think of those that love you In this real life Try to be less blind

Great choice that. I love that album and that song is the highlight. The key change at the end always gets me.

And another one, but this is because of the associations more than anything else. It was playing in our house at university when we had to kick the door down to get to my friend who had taken an overdose of pills and was lying under his desk on the floor and while we waited for the ambulance. It seemed to be stuck on repeat. I'm thinking of him now especially, because he got married, moved to Stockholm, and has two kids, but yesterday afternoon he became a widower.

I was thinking about posting Barber's Adagio for Strings which R_from_afar has posted, although I wondered if it was too long (the version R_from_afar posted is 9 minutes long, Leonard Bernstein's version is even longer at 10 minutes).

You're right TacticalR. Bacharach and David definitely had a certain melancholy about their work. This song always made me feel sad as it would remind me of the girls I could never get a date with!

Yes dmm, we could probably do a whole thread on Bacharach and David's mixture of pop, easy listening, optimism, sadness and heartbreak...
LA is a great big freeway Put a hundred down and buy a car In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass And all the stars that never were Are parking cars and pumping gas
