Everybody has their favorite sad songs. That's part of what I love so much about country music. Country music is never afraid to go with a sad song.
Real sadness is such an all-encompassing intense thing that it takes you out of your humdrum existence. If you can still function, you want to show it while it's peaking. So when people tell you to cheer up, it's not always the best thing.
The blues are just a heightened sense of awareness of life's ups and downs, and things that a guy sees after a couple hits of Jack Daniels.
If they want to party and do all the things I say brought me sadness in my song, with my song as the soundtrack... so be it.
Oh, I just sing like I hurt inside.
Certainly tears are given to us to use. Like all good gifts, they should be used properly.
It is some relief to weep; grief is satisfied and carried off by tears.
We must curb ourfury, and allow sadness to diminish, and speak our stories with coolness and deliberation.
I didn't want Sadness to be just one note.
I can mourn internally, just be quiet about it. I have my moments but I'm not a real, expressive person, especially when it comes to like sadness.
I was moaning and grieving as if I lost one of my own children. It was probably one of the most real feelings I ever had on the show. I was just sitting there wailing with no lines. I was beat after that storyline.
I don't fight my ability to sing sad songs: it's what I am good at, so I must be built for that.
To a nice ear, the quality of a voice is singularly affecting. Its depth seems to be allied to feeling; at least, the contralto notes alone give an adequate sense of pathos. They are born near the heart.
In rising sighs and falling tears.
I could be worried about it if I had the wrong attitude. I don't think that I want my life and my daily occurrences to influence the direction. I don't want my daily life or my happiness to be a direct influence on music or my sadness.
