Wikipedia article
"'Don't Be Sad'" is a song by alt-country band Whiskeytown, from their album, 'Pneumonia'. It was co-written by Ryan Adams, Mike Daly, and James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins), and issued as a single to radio in 2001.
Ryan Adams says this about the track: "I think there's a duality in that song. I think on one hand, it's saying, 'Hang on, we'll get through this,' but deep down, we know we're not going to get through it at all. I don't know. Damn, that song just kinda says it all, doesn't it?"
