Tindersticks - Tiny Tears. Sopranos fans will recognize it from Season One just before the big attempt on Tony's life.
Louis Armstrong - Black and Blue. Beck's latest album is a real downer too, I like it but its a hell of a downer. Lou Reed - Perfect Day |
Metallica's Fade to Black. Nuff said

Tears in Heaven - Clapton - very sad. His reason for writing it and in the movie: "Rush" - when Jason Patric croaks.
|
Eminem - Stan
|
Strange Fruit - Billie Holiday
Most depressing and odd sounding song ever. It is based off of a poem regarding the lynchigns of African Ameriacns in the 20's and 30's.. CHeck it out and let me know what you think. |
Blink 182's "Adam's Song" jumped to the top of my list of depressing songs after my friend Adam killed himself.
|
Post the Most Depression Music you Like
I really love depressing music, sometimes it just fits whats going on perfectly
Jets to Brazil - Sea Anenime Ben Folds Five - Brick Radiohead - Everything in its right Place oh man and a million others, my mp3 players not working right now so i cant look anything up, anyway, post 'em if you got 'em |

tend to love depressing music as well, even though im usually a very happy person. i do however like my stuff a bit "darker" than your mainstream stuff
Tool - Undertow (especially the start of flood) Anything by Smashing Pumpkins massive attack - anything from Mezzanine |

Pearl Jam - Black
Beck - Sea Change (The whole album) Jeff Buckley - Forget Her, Lover you should have come over and a bunch of others The Tea Party - All My Charms |
One of the recent sad songs I've heard is "Patricide" NothingFace, but I was also thinking of another song too, but can't remember now.
|
dammmmmnnnn i agree with Beck's Sea Change album. you can be getting head after winning the lottery and still have to fight off suicidal tendencies when it plays.
some music i avoid at times due to sadness: anything mazzy star some heather nova - namely Paper Cup Smashing Pumpkins - a LOT of stuff heh NIN's Something I Can Never Have & Hurt Radiohead's Creep and No Surprises and um..... exit to a french theeme or something? Jimmy Eat World's Don't Call & Hear You Me (HYM is _depressing_) Testament's Return to Serenity Metallica's One. heh. wow. i'll have to make a real list now.. heh..... soooooooooooooo many |

Dream Theater - Spacedye Vest
Definitely a song to put on repeat right after your girlfriend dumps you, and just leave it there for the next 20 days. |
Weezer - Across The Sea
blink-182 - Adam's Song Eminem - Stan Green Day - Good Riddance Nirvana - All Apologies Pearl Jam - Jeremy Radiohead - Creep |
I'm listening to R.E.M.'s "Me in Honey" for about the dozenth time in a row right now, coincidentally enough.
|
Stone Temple Pilots - Creep
Sublime - PoolShark Radiohead - Paranoid Andriod Pearl Jam - Footsteps NOFX - Whoops, I Od'd Nine Inch Nails - Hurt Johnny Cash - The Mercy Seat Everlast - What It's Like Temple Of The Dog - Wooden Jesus That's all I got off the top of my head |
The smiths - most stuff by them but the best are "How soon is now" and "That joke isnt funny anymore"
NIN - Burn Handsome Family - "pigeons" "Woman downstairs" Therapy? - "screamager" That Mad mad world song of Donnie Darko soundtrack Radiohead - the whole of ok computer (currently listening to) +fake plastic trees and street spirit Leonard Cohens first album REM - low and loads more.....hmm going to have to make a dpressed compilation now... edited - Had to include most stuff by nick cave but especially -last boatmans call (for the whole girl thing depression) |

Mojave 3. Either very few people have heard of this band, or 90% of those who have commited suicide after being reduced to tears by their music. Holy GOD! This band is soooo depressing, but sooo beautiful. Listen to them, but keep sharp objects at a safe distance.
|
I'm suprise there is not a single song mention from The Cure or Joy Division.
|
Doesnt seem to be many british people here - i was the first to mention the smiths
|
The Cure - Disintegration
|
It's hard to go past The Verve's <I>The Drugs Don't Work</I>
That said, I prefer Ben Harper's cover Also great: Paul Kelly - Deeper Water The Who - Behind Blue Eyes Machine Gun Fellatio - Unsent Letter Ben Folds - Rockin' the Suburbs (the whole album) The Whitlams - Charlie No. 1 (no.s 3 and 2 as well) |
Opeth-Still day beneath the sun
Ben harper-walk away Actally a lot of Ben Harper now that I think of it. |
I like the Current 93 song I've quoted below. But historically, the most depressing song ever written is this one http://www.phespirit.info/gloomysunday/ sk
|
the cure, morrisey and Erasure tend to be on the darker side of things.
|
Alice In Chains - Junkhead
NIN - Hurt Simon And Garfunkel - The Boxer Ben Folds Five- Brick The Eels- Elizabeth On The Bathroom Floor and pretty much anything by Nick Drake, Tim Buckley or Joy division. |
I noticed somebody put "Vincent" by Don McClean.... did anyone else find "American Pie" depressing or did I miss the point...?
But here's the list: "Bro Hymn" - Pennywise "Sad But True" - The Transplants (no, it's not a Metallica cover) "Hurt" - Johnny Cash does it more justice than Trent..... just seems more meaningful coming from an old guy and last.... I didn't see this on any of the lists I read, but "Jeremy" by Pearl Jam |
Johnny Cash - Hurt
Tears in Heaven - Clapton The Little Girl - John Michael Montgomery (God DAMN, this song is sad, but hey, after all it is country, The Music of Sadness, The Music of Pain.) I Miss You - DMX Dear Mama - 2Pac Undying Love - Nas Side note: I took you guys' advice and downloaded God Said No by Dan Bern, and I'm sorry but I just don't get it, I mean I DO get it completely, but what makes it so special? I think its very mediocre songwriting. Sorry, guys. |

George Jones- He Stopped Loving Her Today Ben Folds- Still Fighting It Radiohead- Creep A Perfect Circle- 3 Libras Smashing Pumpkins- Disarm |
The new Lisa Germano album, "Lullaby for Liquid Pig," doesn't have an optimistic thought on it. If that helps.
|
