althoughi agree with everybody hurts(i said that myself too) the overall message in the song is of hope,whereas IMO losing my religion is actually a song of desperation and sadness, though it is more upbeat

No Neil Young so far

Those deserve a mention:

Neil Young - My My Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)
Neil Young - Hey Hey My My (Into the Black)
Neil Young - Only Love Can Break your Heart
Neil Young - Fuckin' Up

The End by The Doors is pretty sad also Goodbye My Lover - James Blunt

i guess that should have been up to me to do it. since you cannot listen to classic rock in the radio here without hearing neil young this, neil young that every 15 mins

"Losing My Religion" is a very sad song on so many levels, but for none of the expected reasons in this thread.

It made me very sad, because it got overplayed to death ... to the point I was very sad every time I was forced to hear it in places I went and I could not escape the horror.

It's also a very sad song because, well, REM is (was) capable of so much better.
