Seasons in the sun for me as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cd_Fdly3rX8 1977 My Grandmother died. My Mum was inconsolable, a few weeks after I played some recordings I had made, seasons in the Sun was playing and Gramar was talking in the background. I shouted my Mum, she came and listened. My Mum is no longer here do doubly sad   |

not the saddest but uplifting .. The Beatles- Hey Jude (with lyrics)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCazMqCJVMc I once spent the night in a police station cell after beating up a policeman ( he started it and no charges were pressed - perhaps because a former neighbour was working there as a pc ) I couldn't get the following song out of my head. The Beatles - Yer Blues - Lyrics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oz8adCa9d0U&list=PLTzjKIHThOWYwm1dKyJ7mvs4XPbDSKI-u&index=19 |

I'm sure a Beatles afficionado can confirm or refute but wasn't Hey Jude written for John's son Julian with the words being changed at a later stage?

Alone again naturally is the pinnacle of sad songs for me, Father and Son also deserving of its mention imo.
But I was just listening to this (and reading the lyrics) and, whether it's because of tiredness or just that I'm getting soft(er) in my old age, this song just made me weep a bit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RChMqvbHVs Yesterday when I was young (original) by Charles Aznavour |

I found Alone Again really depressing and couldn't listen to it to the end.

Memory and songs is a funny thing, I just heard a song on the TV from an album I used to have. I looked up the album, saw a song title, heard the chorus in my head, then had a very vivid memory of having a bath with that playing in the next room years ago

Whenever I hear anything from the 60s it normally evokes some fantastic memories I have of that time.
Hey Jude for instance always reminds me of a party and a very nice girl I met at it. |
