Iced Earth/Tear Jerker
This heavy metal band has a few sad songs.
- "Dracula" from their album Horror Show, especially at the beginning.
- There's a smattering of very powerful moments in the "Gettysburg (1863)" trilogy ("The Devil To Pay", "Hold At All Costs" and "High-Water Mark") that may induce tears.
"The last time we were together, |
- Also tear-inducing, from "High-Water Mark".
"We're almost there my boys |
"It's over now, we are retreating |
- "Watching Over Me" was written by Schaffer as a tribute to his best friend, who had died tragically prior to the album's release. Actually, his friend died before the band existed, at least as Iced Earth; the name was suggested by said friend.
- "A Question of Heaven". Yes, it's about Spawn -- but it's really sad.
- "Hollow Man"
- "When The Eagle Cries".
