"Someone Saved My Life Tonight" by Elton John. I would have said "Sorry
Seems To Be The Hardest Word" except for its lack of pathos (way too over
the top for that). And "Empty Garden" falls somewhere between the two.
A weird one for me is Tom Cochrane's "Big League" which is very upbeat in
the chorus, but the words are absolutely heart-wrenching as it describes the
death of a junior hockey player killed in a fatal head-on collision. Doesn't
get much sadder than that.
