Today I am on Day 4 – A song that makes you sad.

I couldn’t think of a sadder song than “Brick” by Ben Folds Five. This powerful song tells a heart-wrenching story. It gets me every time I hear it, which isn’t often because it is so sad and hard to listen to.

  1. I definately would not be able to finish this list.Not easy.
    but I decided to include songs I like on my blog. They make me sad, they make me wonder, the make me happy and they make me cry.
    This is the first time I am actually browsing thru youtube.
    Have a good day Chase March.

  2. Hi Ela,

    I sometimes use YouTube as a jukebox. I will play a song and once it finished I will play something else from the same page or from the recommendations. I've actually discovered some great music that way.

    I'm looking forward to your selections and will stroll over to your blog right now.
