that silly Edwin McCain song... I'll Be
Trisha Yearwood (I think she's the singer) How do I live without you Meatloaf... I would do anything for love That Vitamin C song that they played at every high school graduation for years. Dave Matthews... The Dreaming Tree Alice In Chains... The Rooster My only real favorite depressing song though is Damien Rice's The Blower's Daughter. It was attached to Closer, a movie that ended up disturbing me about human relationships at a really, really bad time. It make me cry, but it's heartbreakingly beautiful.

I'm surprised there's six pages of discussion about this. I just assumed that everyone knew the most depressing song ever written is Gloomy Sunday. Any song linked to that many suicides is a given for the title, I reckon.
Ben Gibbard writes some pretty depressing tunes, though. I haven't heard any of his All-Time Quarterback stuff, but I don't recommend listening to The Postal Service or Death Cab for Cutie if you're already in a bad mood. It'll only make things worse.

"Fix You" by Coldplay.
I lived two hours away from my hometown for a job and was going home after being "let go" from my job (for a shortage of work, not for behaviour/illegal reasons). Driving back to my hometown in the snow for two hours and thinking about the last few hours just made me cry all the way home.. and stupid me had to have this in the CD player at the time!

I would have to say Macy Gray's "The Letter"
I ever wanted was some love and peace and harmony I could dance in the raw in the sun underneath the stars When I walk over to my money tree ain't nobody there trying to take from me When they ask "Are you truly free?" I'd say "Yes, truly" But down here in reality everybody knows there ain't no such thing And it's clear It's obviously this is not the place I'm supposed to be On and on and on I've searched What I'm lookin for is not here on earth I can't stand I can't take no more So I know that I gotta go So long everybody Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed Hope I see you someday soon So long everybody I have gone beyond the moon All I ever wanted,love and the peace and the harmony Just to be live and shine When I get ready I up and fly And I can't remember none of the things that I want to forget It's the best - satisfaction no less Ask if I'm free and I'll say "Oh yes" But down here in reality everybody knows there ain't no such thing And it's clear It's obviously this is not the place I'm supposed to be On and on and on I've searched What I'm lookin for is not here on earth I can't stand I can't take no more So I know that I gotta go So long everybody Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where i'm headed Hope I see you someday soon So long everybody I have gone beyond the moon Before I do Just one more look at you It's worth the stay But I'll meet you later at that better place All I ever wanted was All I ever wanted was All I ever wanted was So long everybody Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed Hope I see you someday soon So long everybody I have gone beyond the moon All I ever wanted,love and the peace and the harmony Just to be live and shine When I get ready I up and fly And I can't remember none of the things that I want to forget It's the best - satisfaction no less Ask if I'm free and I'll say "Oh yes" But down here in reality everybody knows there ain't no such thing And it's clear It's obviously this is not the place I'm supposed to be On and on and on I've searched What I'm lookin for is not here on earth I can't stand I can't take no more So I know that I gotta go So long everybody Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where i'm headed Hope I see you someday soon So long everybody I have gone beyond the moon Before I do Just one more look at you It's worth the stay But I'll meet you later at that better place All I ever wanted was All I ever wanted was All I ever wanted was So long everybody Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed Hope I see you someday soon So long everybody I have gone beyond the moon I made the mistake of enjoying the song, played it for about an hour straight, but sadly enough, it made my mom a little nervous, so I had to turn it off.

Staind- Excess Baggage. Really, really depressing.
Guster- Either Way. Not necessarily depressing, but extremely bittersweet to me. My first real love and first real broken heart. It was probaby 6-8 years ago, but every time I hear it I get a little smile and that contemplative "damn...." feeling.

For me, the saddest piece of music is Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Sonata for Cello in G Minor," a seriously beautiful and somber piece for cello with piano accompaniment. I'm not sure whether I would class it as "depressing," however. The piece is more poignant and affecting than depressing. It's a flowing meditation, a lyrical lament—and one of the most profound expressions of sorrow ever written.

Shine On you Crazy Diamond/Wish You Were Here
By: Pink Floyd Album: Wish You Were Here This song was described by a D.J. I knew as a song that could "Make A Dead Man Cry" "Shine on you Crazy Diamond" Remember when you were young You shone like the sun Shine on, you crazy diamond Now there's a look in your eyes Like black holes in the sky Shine on, you crazy diamond You were caught in the crossfire Of childhood and stardom Blown on the steel breeze Come on you target for faraway laughter Come on you stranger You legend, you martyr, and shine You reached for the secret too soon You cried for the moon / Shine on... Threatened by shadows at night And exposed in the light / Shine on... Well you wore out your welcome With random precision Rode on the steel breeze Come on you raver, you seer of visions Come on you painter You piper, you prisoner, and shine Nobody knows where you are How near or how far / Shine on... Pile on many more layers And I'll be joining you there / Shine on... And we'll bask in the shadow Of yesterday's triumph Sail on the steel breeze Come on you boy child, you winner and loser Come on you miner For truth and delusion and shine

I was glad to see someone here knows who Kevin Gilbert is, Donkeypuncher. "Song for a Dead Friend" gives me a break down everytime I hear it. You forgot to add just about every other song he has ever done though. "Tears of Aurdy" and "Tea for One" are the other two rip your heart out songs ont hat album. Then there is the stuff he did with Toy Matinee. "Toy Matinee" and "there was a Little Boy" Will both rack you hard.
Other songs that hit me hard are: NIN- Somethin I can never have Cash- Hurt Queen- The show must go on Blink182- Adams Song -I first heard that right after a good friend of mine killed himself. I played it expecting the normal light happy stuff Blink does. I was on the floor in a ball for 45 minutes. Never been hit that hard by a song before in my life. Everclear- Wonderful DC Talks- What if I stumble Ozzy- So Tired Ozzy- mama I'm comeing home Verve Pipe- Freashmen Megadeth- Almost Honest Concreat Blond- Joey

The songs I find depressing are the love songs that amount to 'you're everything in the entire world and I'm lost when you're gone'. That's a long list of many modern love songs. I find the sentiment depressing because I wouldn't want to imagine someone that loved me being unable to function when I'm not around.

Brighter side by OPM, one of the few songs that can really produce a pang in the throat when listened to.
Especially when you compare it to the other songs on the album (menance to sobriety) the slowness really hits. One of my favourite tunes. Sometimes I forget that you're not here Can't believe it's been a year Since you flew away And I never got to say goodbye Good times Hangin' out til the break of dawn Listening to Bob And singin along Every little thing it's gonna be It's gonna be all right... I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side And one day I'm gonna be there too Where the sun is shining and the water's blue I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side I know you're somewhere where you're finally free You'll always be a part of me Like the moon is to the sea They say you don't know A good thing till it's gone But I got to say they're wrong I knew you were a good friend A good friend all along I wish the world wouldn't be so cold As to take such a beautiful soul But despite it all I know we gotta carry on I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side And one day I'm gonna be there too Where the sun is shinin and the water's blue I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side I know you're somewhere where you're finally free And you'll always be a part of me Like the moon is to the sea I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side.. Always be a part of me... If I could rewind time Then I'd like to let you know Just one thing before your time go That every moment you were living was a blessing to me And I saw inside of you things that others couldn't see Now people put you down for the way that you lived But those people never knew you the way that I did Don't be ashamed of who you were of how you died I know you just wanted to find the brighter side... I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side And one day I'm gonna be there too Where the sun is shining and the water's blue I know that you're gonna fly Somewhere brighter on the other side I know you're somewhere where you're finally free And you'll always be a part of me... I know that you're gonna fly I know that you're gonna fly

Great song from a great artist...lyrics are so sad His name was Perry He had a learning difficulty His father was a very mean man His father burned his skin His father send him to his death He was ten years old He was ten years old He was ten years old Her name was Naomi Beautiful round face, so ashamed Told me how to please a man After school in the back of a bus She was doing it every day She was eleven years old She was eleven years old She was eleven years old Her name was Sheryl Black hair, like an electric space She would pretty paint my face She was a very good friend Her father would come to her in the night She was twelve years old She was twelve years old She was twelve years old His name was Donovan He was a very good friend The cards were stacked against him He was selling cocaine The last time I saw him He was thirteen years old He was thirteen years old He was thirteen years old His name was Charles He said he was in love with me We were both fourteen Then I had to move away Then he begin to smoke crack Then he had to sell ass I don't know where he is I don't know where they are

Coldplay - "Fix You"
(excerpt) When you try your best but you don't succeed When you get what you want but not what you need When you feel so tired but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse. And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone but it goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you Tears stream, down your face When you lose something you cannot replace Tears stream down your face And I.. James Blunt - "Goodbye my Lover" (full lyrics) Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun, Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won So I took what's mine by eternal right Took your soul out into the night It may be over but it won't stop there I am here for you if you'd only care You touched my heart you touched my soul You changed my life and all my goals And love is blind and that I knew when My heart was blinded by you. I've kissed your lips and held your hand Shared your dreams and shared your bed I know you well, I know your smell I've been addicted to you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I am a dreamer and when i wake You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take And as you move on, remember me Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile I've watched you sleeping for a while I'd be the father of your child I'd spend a lifetime with you I know your fears and you know mine We've had our doubts but now we're fine And I love you, I swear that's true I cannot live without you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me And I still hold your hand in mine In mine when I'm asleep And I will bare my soul in time When I'm kneeling at your feet Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow... Katie Melua - "Piece by Piece" (excerpt) First of all must go Your scent upon my pillow And then I'll say goodbye to your whispers in my dreams And then our lips will part In my mind and in my heart 'Cause your kiss Went deeper than my skin Piece by piece is how I'll let go of you Kiss by kiss Will leave my mind one at a time One at a time, one at a time

Most Depressing Song!
The most depressing song is the Nirvana song "Something in the way" or the song Nirvana preformed on MTV Unplugged called "Where did you sleep last night".
Both these songs are very depressing so I can't see why, as far as I have seen, no one has mentioned them before. Listen and you'll see!! |

My top three are:
"In the Living Years" by Mike & The Mechanics. "And so it goes" by Billy Joel. Always brings tears to my eyes. Thoughts of an unlived life for me and someone special. "The Adagio for Strings" by Samuel Barber. Chilling and almost unworldly. Truly music that is inspired by the cosmos and angelic beings IMHO. This was played in the movie Platoon for those of you unfamiliar with his work. I would have liked it played at my funeral ...except I've decided that I don't want one. They are just too sad for those who remain behind.

Immortal Technique - Dance With the Devil is the most depressing song I've ever heard and I don't even like rap.
---------------------- I once knew a nigga whose real name was William His primary concern, was making a million Being the illest hustler, that the world ever seen He used to fuck moviestars and sniff coke in his dreams A corrupted young mind, at the age of thirteen Nigga never had a father and his mom was a fiend She put the pipe down, but every year she was sober Her sons heart simultaneously grew colder He started hanging out selling bags in the projects Checking the young chicks, looking for hit and run prospects He was fascinated by material objects But he understood money never bought respect He build a reputation 'cause he could hustle and steal But got locked once and didn't hesitate to squeal So criminals he chilled with didn't think he was real You see me and niggaz like this have never been equal I don't project my insurecurity's at other people He fiended for props like addicts with pipes and needles So he felt he had to prove to everyone he was evil A feeble-minded young man with infinite potetial The product of a ghetto breed capatalistic mental Coincidentally dropped out of school to sell weed Dancing with the devil, smoked until his eyes would bleed But he was sick of selling trees and gave in to his greed [Hook] Everyone trying to be trife never face the consequences You propably only did a month for minor offences Ask a nigga doing life if he had another chance But then again there's always the wicked at new and advanced Dance forever with the devil on a code cell block But thats what happens when you rape, murder and sell rock Devils used to be gods, angels that fell from the top There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot [Verse 2] So Billy started robbing niggaz, anything he could do He'd get his respect back, in the eyes of his crew Starting fights over little shit, up on the block Stepped up to selling mothers and brothers the crack rock Working overtime for making money for the crack spot Hit the jackpot and wanted to move up to cocaine For filling the scarface fantasy stuck in his brain Tired of the block niggaz treating him the same He wanted to be major like the cut throats and the thugs But when he tried to step to 'em, niggaz showed him no love They told him any motherfucking coward can sell drugs Any bitch nigga with a gun, can bust slugs Any nigga with a red shirt can front like a blood Even Puffy smoked the motherfucker up in a club But only a real thug can stab someone till they die Standing in front of them, starring straight into their eyes Billy realized that these men were well guarded And they wanted to test him, before business started Suggested raping a bitch to prove he was cold hearted So now he had a choice between going back to his life Or making money with made men, up in the cife His dreams about cars and ice, made him agree A hardcore nigga is all he ever wanted to be And so he met them friday night at a quarter to three [Hook] [Verse 3] They drove around the projects slow while it was raining Smoking blunts, drinking and joking for entertainment Untill they saw a woman on the street walking alone Three in the morning, coming back from work, on her way home And so they quietly got out the car and followed her Walking through the projects, the darkness swallowed her They wrapped her shirt around her head and knocked her onto the floor This is it kid now you got your chance to be raw So Billy oaked her up and grapped the chick by the hair And dragged her into a lobby that had nobody there She struggled hard but they forced her to go up the stairs They got to the roof and then held her down on the ground Screaming shut the fuck up and stop moving around The shirt covered her face, but she screamed the clawed So Billy stomped on the bitch, until he broken her jaw The dirty bastards knew exactly what they were doing They kicked her until they cracked her ribs and she stopped moving Blood leaking through the cloth, she cried silently And then they all proceeded to rape her violently Billy was meant to go first, but each of them took a turn Ripping her up, and choking her until her throat burned A broken jaw mumbled for god but they weren't concerned When they were done and she was lying bloody, broken and broos One of them niggaz pulled out a brand new twenty-two They told him that she was a witness of what she'd gone through And if he killed her he was guaranteed a spot in the crew He thought about it for a minute, she was practicly dead And so he leaned over and put the gun right to her head [Sample from "Survival of the Fittest" by Mobb Deep] I'm falling and I can't turn back I'm falling and I can't turn back [Verse 4] Right before he pulled the trigger, and ended her life He thought about the cold pain with the platinum and ice And he felt strong standing along with his new brothers Cocked the gat to her head, and pulled back the shirt cover But what he saw made him start to cringe and studder Cuz he was starring into the eyes of his own mother She looked back at him and cried, cause he had forsaken her She cried more painfully, than when they were raping her His whole world stopped, he couldn't even contiplate His corruption had succesfully changed his fate And he remembered how his mom used to come home late Working hard for nothing, cause now what was he worth He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth And crying out to the sky cause he was lonely and scared But only the devil responded, cause god wasn't there And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold And so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul They say death take you to a better place but I doubt it After that they killed his mother, and never spoke about it And listen cause the story that I'm telling is true Cuz I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom to And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go Infact I'm sure he's standing among one of you at my shows And every street cypher listening to little thugs flowe He could be standing right next to you, and you wouldn't know The devil grows inside the hearts of the selvish and wicked White, brown, yellow and black colored is not restricted You have a self destructive destiny when your inflicted And you'll be one of gods children and fell from the top There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot So when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never Because the dance with the devil might last you forever

Leaving on a Jet Plane by Bob Denver doesn't depress me all that much.
I see it as a song of hope and longing, but nothing that would depress someone if they listened to it over and over. Maybe I need to revisit it.

Porcupine Tree - Heartattack in a Layby. Nothing like a song about a random heart attack to make you depressed.
Heartattack In A Layby I pull off the road East of Baldock and Ashford Feeling for my cell In the light from the dashboard Hissing from the road The smell of rain in the air con Maybe check the news Or just put a tape on Lighting up a smoke I've got this feeling inside me Don't feel too good If I close my eyes And fell asleep in this layby Would it all subside The fever pushing the day by Motor window wind I could do with some fresh air Can't breathe too well (She waits for me. Home waits for me.) I guess I should go now She's waiting to make up To tell me she's sorry And how much she missed me I guess I'm just burnt out I really should slow down I'm perfectly fine but I just need to lie down We'll grow old together We'll grow old together We'll grow old together.... |

That All By Myself song (not the Celine Dion version, although it's still sad, but the original is better), lot's of Nirvana tunes, and Mad World sung by Gary Jules (which I believe is also a cover, but I love this version).
"I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad, the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had" Mad World Oh and I agree that "I'll Be" Edwin McCain song makes me quite sad, it reminds me of a relationship. Also, "Alive" by Edwin from I Mother Earth. I think it's supposed to be a positive song, but it makes me sad. I'd like it played at my funeral I think.

not that I know a specific song, but its gotta be one by Morrisey, that guy was constantly depressed.
But a more modern one would definitely be The Scientist by Coldplay. Watching the video in conjunction with the song is a guaranteed tear jerker. |
