I'd say Marooned is also on the top of the list.

Last Kiss, though I prefer the Pearl Jam Version

Also Millencolin - The Ballad is pretty darn good.

For reference the original version was sung by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers.
I think the Pearl Jam version of the song is sadder, but I prefer the original version.

Pearl Jam - Black, is sad as hell to me too.
Beatles - Let It Be

cmon man let it be should be an uplifting song when ur sad. its not sad in itself.

Chris Cornell - Sunshower

 

[NikolaeVarius]

I thought Rewrite by Asian Kung Fu Generation is actually a sad song.

 

[Thorny]

Cat's in the Cradle is the most depressing song I've ever heard but it prolly doesn't qualify as a rock song.

EDIT: I guess the Ugly Kid Joe version prolly qualifies.

Yeah, not exactly mega superstar bands, but the songs are pretty sad.....

WASP has lots of entertaining metal.

The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen?

Almost forgot about this song & I think it takes the prize.

I always thought "The final cut" was an incredible album but many didn't like it,
here is The Gunners dream from "Band of brothers"
also "The final cut" from Pink floyd's website, enjoy..

I always thought of Fade Into You as a nice love song
