Six painfully earnest sad songs for our favorite lonely nerd. Listen as ironically or sincerely as you desire!
DOWNLOAD At Seventeen - Janis Ian
And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in the social graces
Desperately remained at home
Inventing lovers on the phone
An uplifting song for a karaoke bar!
All Woman - Lisa Stanfield
I may not be a lady
But I'm all woman
From Monday to Sunday, I work harder than you know
I'm no classy lady
Not gonna lie, I got this from "Spaced" and it is cheesy and awesome.
Good Mother - Jann Arden
I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
It may not be about the Lemons, but no sad sack list is complete without Jann Arden.
Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
Well, I couldn't not include it.
This Woman's Work - Kate Bush
I know you have a little life in you yet
I know you have a lot of strength left
I seriously love this song. And it was the saddest part of "Extras."
Both Sides Now (remastered) - Joni Mitchell
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
I had to top it off with the saddest and the best.
