This morning at breakfast my daughter asked what the saddest song I'd ever heard was. Thankfully, I had "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" fresh on my mind, because that's a more acceptacle answer to give an 8-year-old ("remember, the one about the shipwreck?") than "If We Were Vampires"

One of my friends lost his wife way too young earlier this year. At the funeral, it was announced that a niece would be playing and singing this song. Everyone on my row went, "oh no." The niece had to hum it because she couldn't make it through.
