Sad - Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty.

Even with his recent passing, its one of those beautiful songs that is still so sad and poignant when listening to the lyrics.

I made note in his RIP thread that the song is about his dislike of all things "famous" and the song made him more famous than he ever wanted.

I always laugh at this sort of comment by rock stars. Put down that axe and head to the factories if you don't like it. Bit hard when you're dead but.

On Eric Clapton Unplugged, two songs in a row make me nearly cry each time I listen to them:

Tears In Heaven
My Father's Eyes.

We played Tears in Heaven as the song when we wheeled my dad's coffin down the aisle at the end of his funeral, so these two being in a row on that CD really sets me off.

Being a football tragic, everytime "wind beneath my wings" by bette midler is played i thing of teddy whitten and am quite moved. Also Eric Claptons tears in heaven is a sad song.

Like TDK said, any music i listen too makes me happy otherwise i wouldnt listen to it :D

Most recently Ou Est Le Swimming Pool's Jackson's Last Stand makes me very sad, the lyrics are quite prophetic I'm afraid. :(

Always makes me chuckle, no matter how down I may feel - "Oh Yeah", by Yello (fans of Ferris Bueller's Day Off will remember this one well).
