Lonely Day gets me teary eyed. It's really the final song that System ever truly wrote and released, and it marked the end of a brilliant 7 year run. I just hope every System Show has the same love and passion they did back then, Because I doubt we see another album
they couldn't make anymore albums, I don't remember the reason, I wanna say it was due to difficulties within the band, serj has released his own music tho
That's awesome, I straight Ball my eyes out what smile empty souls 'bottom of a bottle and 'hows it going to be by 3👁️ blind I am so damn deep man it's like when a sad memory is sparked by a totally meaningful rock song plays)(a handful tops).. I cry and it's out of my system before the song ends usually . peace
@@deliberate570Both songs can co-exist. The two are almost the same lyrically but have different meanings for both artists. Trent’s version is the ending of the Downward Spiral and ties in with the story of the album and Trent’s feelings of the time. Johnny’s version is about him coming to grips with the death of his wife and the fact that his time was almost up too. I love both but I don’t think we should discredit the original
Radiohead has made way sadder songs than creep imo Especially stuff like no surprises, how to disappear completely, and motion picture soundtrack Don’t mean to be the average Radiohead fan but creep is def not their saddest song
Man all duster songs make you wanna lay in bed for an hour and have an existential crisis. Stars Will Fall especially. I love his songs sm bc they very well convey that feeling of emptiness and sometimes even warmth.
Honerable mentions (not in any order) 1: fade to black-Metallica: about suicide 2: to live is to die-metallica: some of the last work cliff burton ever created 3: when the smoke is going down-scorpions
Why would I want to tune a guitar to that kind of tuning? Drop D is as far as I will go. I've got 1 guitar and I'm not going to tune it to a bunch of different tunings.
The 80s had a lot of really melancholic stuff. This would be my list, check'em out if you don't know them :) Kiss - I Still Love you Scorpions - Still Loving you ZZ Top - Rough Boy Steelheart - She's gone Whitesnake - Is this Love Didn't put Carrie bc I know it's overplayed in the states, but I still love that tune as an outsider haha
Why on earth is the outro of floods by Pantera not here? That’s the riff that has moved me the most. Just wow. It’s the only riff that has even had emotional impact on me
Think your my fav guitarist bro we got to much of the same taste not to be keep it up please man an you looked just as depressed as I do remember your making people smile with your tunes even if you don’t write them
Oh one more thing... sad rock songs of the nineties, early two thousands,. make me feel inexplicably Euphoric... What a lonely day, and it's mine, the most loneliest day of my life, such a lonely day= should be band,it's a day that I can't Stand ...The Most loneliest day of my life!!! the most loneliest day of my life?!!?hell yeah 👍
Anytime someone says Tom DeLonge can't actually play guitar, I play them 3 blink-182 songs that without a doubt proves he can: "M&Ms", "Dumpweed", and "Stay Together for the Kids". I also remind them that simple music sells and it's okay to like a "simple guitarist" for being simple. But, like I said, he's not a simple guitarist and the proof is in the pudding.
Stay Together sounds uplifting and sad at the same time
I believe bittersweet is the word your describing.
Like a Creed song
last day of highschool vibes
i know… like… it describes my life

Honorable mentions:
Nutshell - Alice In Chains
Heart shaped box - Nirvana
Wake me up when September ends - Green Day
Yeah those should’ve been on thwre
2/3 of them made it onto part 2
How is heart shaped sad
Basic ass song choices
Absolutely nutshell! Do you listen to AIC a lot too?
These riffs are sad but true
Hey man technically Hurt is NIN song but we all know it's really Johnny Cashs's

Is that a Metallica song reference I see? 🤨🤨
@@Warr2K No its a Megadeth song, off their album Reign in Blood
that’s my favorite infant annihilator song
Glad you put star shopping on here definitely deserves a spot
Hurt is such a fucking good song. The Downward Spiral is a masterpiece and will always be one of the greatest albums of all time
The "stay together for the kids" riff reminds me of the final day of school. Happy it's summer, sad schools over.
i dont care what anyone says, this guy is one of the best guitar players on youtube
💯
Like In skill or content?

@@neliacwahs895 yup. I would argue don't follow is sadder tho
Hurt and creep are the anthems of sadness
Radiohead has made way sadder songs than creep imo
Especially stuff like no surprises, how to disappear completely, and motion picture soundtrack
Don’t mean to be the average Radiohead fan but creep is def not their saddest song
@hotdog2130 I know but it's thr most widely known
@@freez1ngglasses true i see ur point
Creep is more like the anthem for people who don't take showers
@@TsuyAr nah that's called anime mysic
I like stay together. I don’t know why, since it is a sad song, but I like the riff.
its a song about a dysfunctional married couple thats only staying together to raise their kids
Man all duster songs make you wanna lay in bed for an hour and have an existential crisis. Stars Will Fall especially. I love his songs sm bc they very well convey that feeling of emptiness and sometimes even warmth.
I can’t describe how star shopping feels
Duster is such an underrated band that never knew I liked until I actually looked up their songs, and was surprised it was them.
Since all the other riffs are so mainstream I’m glad to see duster getting the first spot. Good man. Good band.
Whatever you feel when you listen to star shopping, this guy is feeling it all the time
"Lonely Day" will always get me a little bit. Same with "Hurt".
Honerable mentions (not in any order)
1: fade to black-Metallica: about suicide
2: to live is to die-metallica: some of the last work cliff burton ever created
3: when the smoke is going down-scorpions
Your shorts are v helpful to find riffs I could possibly learn thank u thank u
the title “stars will fall” sounds depressing on its own
Was not expecting lil peep to be on here! 🤩
If you tune your guitar to F#AC#F#G#E no matter what you play it'll always sound sad
Try DADF#ACE too😉
Why would I want to tune a guitar to that kind of tuning? Drop D is as far as I will go. I've got 1 guitar and I'm not going to tune it to a bunch of different tunings.
Stay Together is really fun to play but gives you chills every time
I love ur videos they calm me everytime one of ur shorts pops up ❤
Always incredible your shorts
Bro, you’re so underrated your tutorials are so fucking good 🤘
star shopping reminded me of that breakcore song where after that riff, a crazy amount of drum beats goes off
You can not change my mind that Star Shopping is the exact same as the One intro just played a little different.
Beautiful
Hurt by NIN, that guitar riff sounds like despair, it's amazing
Keep on Rockin Out Brother it's all we got to leave behind in the digital world.....⏳⌛🎸
Personally for me one of the saddest riffs is second to last section in Morbid Angel's Desolate Ways
Just heart wrenching and still pretty
The 80s had a lot of really melancholic stuff. This would be my list, check'em out if you don't know them :)
Kiss - I Still Love you
Scorpions - Still Loving you
ZZ Top - Rough Boy
Steelheart - She's gone
Whitesnake - Is this Love
Didn't put Carrie bc I know it's overplayed in the states, but I still love that tune as an outsider haha
I could watch this dude play guitar all day
Nutshell needs to be on this list
Why on earth is the outro of floods by Pantera not here? That’s the riff that has moved me the most. Just wow. It’s the only riff that has even had emotional impact on me
That riff of System of a Down is amazing❤️
The Day I Tried to Live - Soundgarden
Baby I'm Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin
I was glad to see lonely day on there. Keep up the good work mate!
I'm in love with that guy
star shopping is so easy to play that it’s satisfying
man looks like a real Skwisgaar Skwigelf, love it
It's a sin that One isn't on here
true
Star Shopping = Everlong
These riffs make me sleepy 😂
Bro is a beast
I feel like most duster riffs can be sad in it's own right
a quick one by have a nice life is maybe one of the saddest guitar riffs ever.
Yo no way! Duster
Still lovin you - Scorpions
metallica's to live is to die is also quite sad... 😢
Beyond The Realms of Death, Fade To Black, Cemetery Gates
You have good taste 👌
I love Lonely Day, great fucking song!
Love is a Laserquest- Arctic Monkeys
No surprises- Radiohead
Where is my mind-Pixies
Think your my fav guitarist bro we got to much of the same taste not to be keep it up please man an you looked just as depressed as I do remember your making people smile with your tunes even if you don’t write them
Best guitar riff ever
Thing Beyond Things - Devin Townsend
the clean guitar interlude in To Live is to Die
Ngl One would be perfect on this list
Oh one more thing... sad rock songs of the nineties, early two thousands,. make me feel inexplicably Euphoric... What a lonely day, and it's mine, the most loneliest day of my life, such a lonely day= should be band,it's a day that I can't Stand ...The Most loneliest day of my life!!! the most loneliest day of my life?!!?hell yeah 👍
3 and 4 sound like the end of 2001 high school movies
Another one would be couch by dexter and the moonrocks
HE PUT LONELY DAY LETS GOOOO
I gotta be that one guy to say it, where is nothing else matters
If you think these riffs are sad, just listen "Tabula Rasa", "Deadman on Vacation" and "7 summer days" by April Rain.
i feel nostalgic
Gained a sub bro i appreciate you ♥️🤘🏻
Man I absolutely hate duster just because they made that one song that people kept putting over family guy clips
nutshell by AIC has to fit somewhere in any sad guitar riffs list
Star shoppings a sample of Never Mess With Sunday by yppah
finally someone said it LMAO, it’s literally just pitched down slightly
Pictures of you by THE CuRE is one of the saddest riffs.
Something in the way is a good one
Star shopping hit like a truck
But the saddest riff of all times, the one wich always make me very... to live is to die from Metallica
Anytime someone says Tom DeLonge can't actually play guitar, I play them 3 blink-182 songs that without a doubt proves he can: "M&Ms", "Dumpweed", and "Stay Together for the Kids".

But, like I said, he's not a simple guitarist and the proof is in the pudding.
For me the saddest is probably no surprises
Lil peep forever
👇👍
the gangsta the killa and the dope dealer 💯
solid playing lil bro! check out protest the hero, also, between the buried and me
Number 4 is "Never Mess With Sunday"
Floods and Cementary Gates also
i find Metallica One to be a simple but sad riff. Especially if you under what the song is about.
Wake me up when september ends is about billys dad dying... but sure throw an soad song in😂
nutshell by aic should’ve been here. one of the best songs of all time
Star shopping sounds like One on steroids
"Guitar riffs that match my facial expression"
Star shopping kinda sounds like a minecraft soundtrack
every breath you take :'v
RIP Lil Peep 🪦🕊️
rip lil peep❤
Ironically, I am suprised that no suprises isn’t on this list
I know!! I was waiting for it the entire time
the amount of people that dont know that lil peeps song is sampled from Yppah is crazy...
Everlong is up there
#4 kinda sounds like In My Head by Bedroom
* Fade To Black Has Left The Chat*
cool
not really well known but abyssic hate- depression pt1
Where is the “sappy” early demo?
