I agree very much with you, for some reason I really like depressing songs.

'Last to know' by Three Days Grace is a really sad song.

"Transatlanticism" by Deaf Cab for Cutie
"Fix You" by Coldplay
"Somewhere Over The Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo

I actually enjoy listening to depressing songs when I'm down - for me they're cathartic.

Weezers "Pig"

It's a narrative about a pig on a farm who's time is up.

Gloomy Sunday cover by Emilie Autumn. Though any version of this song is usually beautifully depressing.
Hello and Lithium by Evanescence.
Lonely by Yael Naim.
Falling by Lacuna Coil.

Sleep, Don't Weep by Damien Rice is probably the one song that I listen to the most when I'm sad. I find it comforting.
A few others:
Videotape - Radiohead
Mad World - Gary Jules
For Reasons Unknown - The Killers
A Dustland Fairtytale - The Killers
The Blower's Daughter - Damien Rice
Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

Something In The Way by Nirvana is a really good, depressing song.

UncertainMuffin · 11-06-2009, 09:55 PM

Don't really think of that song as depressing, but i love The Weakerthans.

IHeartSteveMcQueen · 11-07-2009, 05:25 AM

the album Closer by Joy Division is probably the most depressing set of songs ever assembled.
