Saddest song I ever heard was from Gary Puckett & the Union Gap Called My Son. It was a heartbreaker then and even harder now.About a father raising a son all by himself after the wife dies in childbirth only to lose him in the war.

" Oh how I miss him here with me
reminiscing how it used to be
Here in my hand they gave to me
Medals my boy won for bravery My Son"

Then this real sad wail at the end. That song kills me. Always did. Even when I first heard it as a little girl. Now it really gets me. And I can barely listen to it.
