BOO! Sad Songs and Ghosts

Forget about Halloween! October is scary for other reasons... especially if you are older than, say, fifteen."Some of my best friends are sad songs..." (said ME during a nasty autumn allergy attack AND before my Starbucks this morning)Sad songs are oddly satisfying when you're feeling miserable. Like a good cry, listening to them is cathartic. Maybe we can learn to LAUGH at how haunting they can be?Everyone has a "Pity Party Playlist." What's your favorite sad song?

Here are a few for October. Enjoy!
