...do you experience the concept of "emotions?"
:hmm:
Do you understand the word "sad"?
What a thing is attached to != the thing.
The song has spiritual connotations which can be used to intensify grief. That does not make the song itself sad. There's nothing about the song that's sad.
You should watch the video, so you can notice that the cheering at the end is not out of place. The absence of an emotional contradiction there proves that it ain't a sad song.
So congratulations, in a thread for "saddest song" you epically failed by trying to /thread with a song that isn't even sad.
Sad
blah blah blah...oh noes! a cartoon is depressed! wah...I'm so sad!!
seriously, dude...wtf
and wtf is this claptrap you posted earlier?
Barber's Adagio for Strings should be mentioned as well:I suppose I assumed this was posted early on, but it seems no one did?
shocking.

that song is generally reserved for memorial purposes these days. It's very emotive, and the state of "sad" has a very wide range.
lyrics along don't make something sad and further, when the same words are used with a different tune, and set against a particular reference, it can be extremely sad.
like this song.
I have seen it used with newborns and for people that have died.

"What a Wonderful World" was utilized in the movie "Good Morning Vietnam" in a scene that evoked sad emotions.
However, no one is going to come in here and say "What a Wonderful World" is a sad song, /thread.
The thread was "saddest song" not "song that evokes the greatest amount of sad emotion when utilized in a specific context."
