Subject: RE: The Saddest Song of All
Glad I'm not the only one who love sad tunes.

I think Leonard Cohen does sad better than almost anyone I can think of. "It Seems so Long Ago, Nancy" "Famous Blue Raincoat". And then there's one called "Dress Rehersal Rag" where some washed-up, junky, entertainer has a long conversation with his reflection in a mirror just before offing himself. Maybe more scary than sad. . .
