Re: things of sad beauty


For Sad Beauty nothing beats LUSH LIFE by Billy Strayhorn (preferreably 
Nat King Cole interpretation):
"...Romance is mush, Stifling those who strive. Ill live a lush life in 
some small dive...
And there Ill be, while I rot With the rest of those whose lives are 
lonely, too.."
Beautiful & untoppable! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu0tZeT-gqQ

My personal heroe of sad songs is KEVIN COYNE, raw & heart-breaking:

In classical music there is way too many...
One lesser known suggestion: Norwegian Composer HARALD SAEVERUD, piano 
piece "RONDO AMOROSO".
