Depressing Songs

[Tyke]

Jim Reeves - Old Tige

[Adster]

I think 50 % of all music is kinda depressing.........lost loves..........dead.........heartaches........etc...............

[almost] any Type O Negative song will do

you get off on it thats all :LP

[DarthInsinuate]

Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have Fun

i've always read the lyrics as being a bit of a melancholy of a having a deprived background

also Ben Folds - Brick

especially the live version and with Ben Folds' explaination of the song's context

[Blythorama]

MORRISSEY songs make me want to run away screaming, except I don't have the energy as I am too depressed by the Morrissey song. Its a cruel and vicious circle.


....and ABBA. Anything that chirpy makes me very very sad.

[Adster]

yeah Brick is depressing about a woman having a abortion

Just listening to: Keane - We Might As Well Be Strangers. Pretty depressing song.

Also Marilyn Manson's cover of The Ramones "The KKK Took My Baby Away" Fucking haunting cover of a song.

I prefer Manic Hispanics version better. "The INS Took My Baby Away"

Danny Boy or Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart . I can't hear bagpipes with out getting teary eyed . But The Bee Gee's Trying to get a Message to you , works too the years I spent in prision were hard ... so you try to block out the memory's but I'd rank them pretty high .

NIN And all that could have been

breeze still carries the sound
maybe i'll disappear
tracks will fade in the snow
you won't find me here

ice is starting to form
ending what had begun
i am locked in my head
with what i've done
i know you tried to rescue me
didn't let anyone get in
left with a trace of all that was
and all that could have been

please
take this
and run far away
far away from me
i am
tainted
the two of us
were never meant to be
all these
pieces
and promises and left behinds
if only i could see
in my
nothing
you meant everything
everything to me

gone fading everything
and all that could have been
could have been

please
take this
and run far away
far as you can see
i am
tainted
and happiness and peace of mind
were never meant for me
all these
pieces
and promises and left behinds
if only i could see
in my
nothing
you meant everything
everything to me
