Need sad/lonely music. 2009-12-01 02:17:41


Yes, I am making a very big animation, been working on it for about 2 months now, and if I'm lucky it will be finished in another 5 months. what I need is some sad or lonely feeling music. I was going to use the song "the scientist" by coldplay, but unfortunately it isn't royalty free.
so yeah I just need some sad music - anybody know of any?

Might I add. the animation is a music video. so for obvious reasons the music is vital.

Well is it a music video so there isn't too much plot to it.
but for example in a scene there is a silhouette walking alone on a hill, he bends down and picks up a rose. the rose soon dies and the petals fall off.
umm there is also one powerful scene with an extreme close up of his Eye crying a tear.
does that describe it well enough?

Thanks for those suggestions, but none of them are what I am really looking for. I found another song which is almost perfect.

Yeah probbly :D. I have this kind of sad/heroic track but I think it wouldn't fit fully

I guess you should go with piano or something . Good luck

Could you please tell me what kind of instruments you would like for this, i could make something for you.

I take piano?

I dont know coldplay so i dont know what you were thinking of, might look it up but i rather dont make commercial sounds.

probably not what you looking for, as it is a very experimental genre and kind of an aquired taste

i think its very sad though

Response to Need sad/lonely music. 2009-12-01 18:25:15


Reasons why this would work:

1. It's a very melancholy piano solo piece I composed one lonely night (i was very sad I might add)
2. it's merely 2 seconds shorter than Coldplay's "The Scientist"
3. There are no words, so the interpretation can be completely left up to the viewer's imagination
4. Very atmospheric

Well thank you all - definitely allot of tracks here that I think could fit just fine.
and I ended up discovering some really cool songs (even if they don't fit).

and I'm surprised by how many people made suggestions for me. thanks again :D

Sounds absolutely hilarious.

What type of cartoony song do you want to reflect that?
