Saddest Song Ever? Its Up There.

I think it should be illegal to write songs like "Wildfire" by Michael Martin Murphy. Seriously, its terrible. Who thinks it would be a good idea to write a song about a pony that a girl loved getting caught in a snowstorm and the girl who dies looking for the pony? Its depressing. Both horse and girl die and the chorus is just this dude singing over and over that the girl was running screaming "Wildfire" and in his dreams she is going to ride up on the horse. But she can't in real life because she and the horse are DEAD. WHAT THE HELL? Gilbert O'Sullivan wrote a song about being a pathetic looser who was on the brink of suicide ("Alone Again. Naturally") that was more upbeat and happy than this tune.Way to write a downer of a song Michael Martin Murphy - you asshole.

Oh, they say she died one winter
When there came a killing frost
And the pony she named Wildfire
Busted down its stall
In a blizzard he was lost
