These are the ones I thought of. The first is about losing love, the second about needing to escape poverty.

YouTube - Bonnie Raitt-I can't make you love me

Just another excuse for me to post it for the 14,000th time and he's dead now (only last month) so it should start to gain more fans due to the fickle nature of the populace:

Count me in,

or among the fickle, one of the ficklest, whatever.
Thank you for turning me on to John Martyn,

thank you very much Jackie Boy.

it's just a matter of time with me and Martyn, my favourite is the 60's stuff he did for Island, 'Stormbringer' credited to John & Beverly Martyn in particular

In total agreement with Jackhammer about John Martyn, a great loss to music

I think "Disenchanted" and "Cancer" by My Chemical Romance are sad.
