"Cats in The Cradle" by Harry Chapin and "Seasons in the Sun" by Terry Jacks.
Goodbye to you, my trusted friend We've known each other since we're nine or ten Together we climbed hills or trees Learned of love and ABC's Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air Pretty girls are everywhere When you see them i'll be there We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed Were just seasons out of time Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me I was the black sheep of the family You tried to teach me right from wrong Too much wine and too much song Wonder how I get along Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air Little children everywhere When you see them i'll be there We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun But the wine and the song Like the seasons, all have gone Goodbye, Michelle, my little one You gave me love and helped me find the sun And every time that I was down You would always come around And get my feet back on the ground Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die When all the bird are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air With the flowers ev'rywhere I wish that we could both be there We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach. |

Red House Painters - Brockwell Park. Desolate and utterly beautiful:
in the night we freeze and you want me to tell in london's lonesome park brockwell but out here i am distracted as fire bombs explode bonfire lamps glow to the crowded road if the days weren't so precious and no worlds where shorted wires had kept us things would be better than this there's an angel by the ocean i miss and trips on the train before our lives changed the mirror where i watched your naked body strain |

I cant believe nobody has mentioned "Fade into You" by Mazzy Star I mean that song makes me want to kill myself.
But undoubtedly Johnny Cash's remake of Hurt is the most chilling and emotionally draining song I can think of. I remember when it came out everyone was saying that Johnny was saying goodbye with that song. June had died six months earlier and it seemed that he was ready to go.

"What do I have to do?" by Stabbing Westward.
and "My December" by Linkin Park I can't listen to the first one more than once. Such sad songs for me...I've felt this way so many times when I've broken up with someone I really loved...

I think that Swallowed by Bush is a depressing song...not just the lyrics but the guitar part just has kind of a depressing rythm to it....don't get me wrong....it's a great song though!

Dashboard Confessional "Screaming Infidelities"
The Church "Under the Milky Way" Armin Van Buuren's "Yet Another Day" Those would be some of my favorite depressing songs. EDIT: 2nd on Goo Goo Doll's "Iris" Johnny Mandel "Suicide is Painless" U2 "If God Would Send His Angels"

Psycho

A Perfect Circle's whole Thirteenth Step album, especially The Noose and Blue. System of A Down - Atwa seems to make me sad. The Beatles - Yesturday. Alot of the songs on Pink Floyd's The Final Cut. All I can think of for now, I will let you know if I think of more.

I will DEFINTELY second Dirt (Phish) and Thumbing my way (Pearl Jam)
One song I've always found myself listening to when depressed is "Like Suicide" by Soundgarden. It's really more of an uplifting song for me when I *am* down, but it fits the theme. There is an acoustic version of it from the SFW soundtrack that is the most amazing performance I've ever heard from this band, PERIOD. I'd be happy to provide a copy of it to anyone interested since you pretty much can't find this soundtrack anymore. |

"Lua" by Bright Eyes (off "I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning")
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk I keep waving at the taxis they keep turning their lights off But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft Supplies are endless in the evening, by the morning they'll be gone When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend I get a coffee and a paper, have my own conversations with the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection The mask I polish in the evening by the morning looks like shit. And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it But me, I'm not a gamble. You can count on me to split The love I sell you in the evening by the morning won't exist You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back. Well it takes one to know one kid I think you got it bad But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning's such a drag. I have a flask inside my pocket we can drink it on the train And if you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same. We might die from medication but we still killed all the pain But what was normal in the eveing by the morning seems insane. And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this The reasons all have run away, but the feeling never did It's not something I would reccomend, but it is one way to live Because what is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is It was so simple in the moonlight now it's so complicated. It was so simple in the moonlight....so simple in the moonlight....so simple in the moonlight Ironically, this album also has one of the happiest, sweetest songs I've ever heard ("First Day of My Life")

Songs that bring about the feeling of genuine depression (not sadness)? Anything by Staind.
I'm being nitpicky, but a lot of the songs I see being touted as "depressing" are, to me anyway, just sad songs.
