With no pressure to share the 'why's,' is there a song that brings up sad/upsetting feelings for you?


Mine is "Do You Love Me?" by The Contours - - a VERY upbeat song and a song I like a lot!

My theory is that's it's not always the sad songs that make us sad.

    Oh, wow!
    That's a beautiful piece of music. (I'm a pianist and I enjoy playing it.)

    Thanks for answering, Zack - Mr.GenXer!

    I've never heard this song. I liked listening. I think I like Guns N'Roses more than I thought I did.
    Thanks, Element 99!

    When I heard it I was mesmerized. It's in my top ten now. Read my next question.

    That sounds like an upbeat song. Sorry for the down feelings it may bring.

  • It is an upbeat song ... the sadness is mostly sentimental.

    Yes, just as I think, too - -  that regardless if a song is upbeat, it still can recall bittersweet/sad feelings.

    To tell the truth, I have heard many versions of that song, and every time it strikes me as a 'spite song' (look who you could have been with now if you had only held on).
    Yes, it is sad too, he still miss her; but is that a valid excuse for it?

    Is your comment addressed to me and The Contours' song? Yeah, I listened a little clocer- -  the song is sort of bitter but it sounds so happy and upbeat!
