The saddest of his that I have heard is As the World Falls Down. I'm sure there's a much sadder one though.

Word on a Wing.

Ive literally seen nobody mention Heathen, the album or the song, in the last 30 or so hours.

The closing track on that album is about coming to grips with mortality, and Bowie cried in the studio the first time he heard the finished recording.

Quicksand

And I can't give everything away

>Wild is the Wind
not bowie's song

his saddest song is neukoln

you feel so lonely you could die

>>61686620
He made it his. It's the definitive version.

>>61686725
not a sad song

>>61686598
Don't go

I saw my baby
She was turning blue
I knew that soon
Her young life was through
And so I got down on my knees
Down by her bed
And these are the words
To her I said

Everything will be alright tonight
Everything will be alright tonight
No one moves
No one talks
No one thinks
No one walks tonight
Tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
No one moves
No one talks
No one thinks
No one walks tonight
Tonight

I am gonna love you till the end
I will love you till I reach the end
I will love you till I die
I will see you in the sky
Tonight

>>61686771
For you.

>>61684975

Fuck me he was so beautiful ;_;

Heroes

>>61684975
Rock n roll suicide

>>61686663
this is it for me, my fave from the next day

>>61686771
>Don't you know you're
>Life itself

>Give me more
>Than one caress
>Satisfy this
>Hungriness
as someone whose been in love and isnt anymore: yes, yes it is. it's all about the impermanence of love and how even though it's beautiful it's also an addiction, and at some point there will be withdrawal... we always want one more touch, and eventually that person won't be around to be touched.... probably the song of his that makes me saddest

Although its very upbeat musically, I've always thought Sound and Vision was a very sad song. Its about depression clearly

Time or Five Years

>as someone whose been in love and isnt anymore:

know that feel bro. The "tfw 25 and never held hands with a girl" frogposters don't know how good they got it

>>61688449

>Released 14 Jan

No. But he made them his own, I think. only heard the Nina Simone version but it pales in comparison

cygnet committee where he repeats "i want to live!"

>he made them his own
lyrics in neukoln are truly bowies

they don't say much

but they speak to me

>>61685123
came to post this
the sound of a desperate and paranoid man

>>61688449
Another contender would be "Be My Wife". I know the title makes it look like some 1964 Beatles track that would fit alongside "I Want to Hold Your Hand", but as we've learned from the release of Blackstar, context is everything.

David Bowie was a married man when he recorded Be My Wife, yet his marriage to Angela was in such shambles that he's still there begging her to "please be mine".

Also, the last words of the song are "Sometimes you get so lonely". The song has no resolution. The two divorced three years later.
