Reply to Roger Waters for the Pink Floyd album 'The Wall' is the greatest vocal performance of all time by slowlyun
Waters' best vocal performance was on Pros & Cons. So good he couldn't ever do it again and used several pre-recorded vocals to pull it off live (The high parts of Go Fishing, Running Shoes, the middle 8 of Every Stranger's Eyes). He put so much into that performance he ruined his voice for the rest of his life. Ever since then he's pretty much talked albums

>Ben Howard - Oats in the water
Holy crap, I knew I recognized this name, this guy does Black Flies on the Windowsill! I love that song! It also makes you pretty sad, but it's good if that's what you are looking for.

Oh man, I'm not trying to think back that far >_< The song was really nice, but those bands remind me so hard of my blunder years.

It's done in a semi-traditional Québec style of folk music and I agree, his voice transmits the emotion amazingly.
There is one lyric that I love (the poetry is beautiful in French):
Yesterday I met a poor man
Living in the street with noting at all
He said something I found amusing
Life is short but some parts can be really long
Keeping in the French theme, there is always Ne me quitte pas. My favorite version is by Nina Simon. The last verse is haunting:
Do not leave me
I won't cry anymore
I'm not gonna talk anymore
I will hide there
looking at you
Dance and smile
And listen to you
Sing and then laugh
let me become
The shadow of your shadow
The shadow of your hand
The shadow of your dog
But
Do not leave me
Do not leave me
Do not leave me
Do not leave me

NIN - And All That Could Have Been
Super sad and powerful lyrics and music.
Also NIN - Leaving Hope
The literal saddest song I know. No lyrics, just emotions.

I actually saw NIN on their With Teeth tour. They played Hurt in a tribute to Johnny Cash! If I'm trying to release some anger Pretty Hate Machine is way up there!

I actually saw Nine Inch Nails in concert and they tributed this song to him. They played it like he does instead of how they do.
