The Civil War song "Lorena" was banned by leaders on both sides because, upon hearing it, soldiers, both blue and gray, would lay down their weapons and return to their homes. https://youtu.be/0zAg6bacIsQ?list=RD0zAg6bacIsQIt was just pointed out to me that it reflects the mental images of a dying soldier. That makes it doubly sad.

...upon hearing it, soldiers, both blue and gray, would lay down their weapons and return to their homes. It ny be my naivety from living in a country without wars (or an army, for that matter), but that effect alone sounds to me like the opposite of sad.

Holy Cow !!! What a lot of emotion embedded in this thread !!!
So many great new songs you've shared - I think I have to piggyback off this thought for a new emotion....

This Mac Wiseman song has to rate near the top of the heap. "The Letter Edged In Black"In his 90s, Mac is still with us and still has his beautiful bluegrass tenor voice. My dad and I listened to Mac and his brother Scotty and Lulabelle on WSM's Grand Ole Opry 70+ years ago. https://youtu.be/PA6vAWghSFsAnother from my youth. "The Baggage Coach Ahead"https://youtu.be/AU4S3G4_rJo

Didn't see these in the thread. The first, Brad Paisley - Whiskey Lullaby with Alison Krauss, used to be the saddest song/video I knew but a while back was replaced by Craig Morgan - This Ain't Nothin' Definitely watch the videos for both Whiskey Lullaby This Ain't Nothin ~Russell~

I wish I could share mine, but legally I can't. I had the opportunity to work on a CD by a certain rapper. He knew he was dying and the last stuff he wrote did bring tears to my eyes. Quite literally. Could be that some of the very best of this genre never made it to the masses. Sad. In this particular case it was corporate greed that prevented it being released which is like kicking a corpse ..  /how's that for sad?
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

The answer to that was usually "Any song Eddie sings front on..."
This thread is like 5 years old.... And my answer was the same 5 years ago.

"Leader of the band" by Dan Fogelberg
I always have a hard time listening to this song because it perfectly pertains to my own dad.
What makes this song even sadder is the fact that Dan Fogelberg passed away from prostate cancer at the age of 56 years old. Very sad.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
