Another Garth song, right up there with The Dance (though not nearly as haunting):

I Don't Have to Wonder

Off his Sevens disc.

Something more recent would be Sarah McLachlan's new single "Fallen." The rest of the CD is somber too. I listen to it when I'm not depressed--I'd get depressed. I listen to it when I AM depressed and I'm ready to end it all :frown:

(God--I love that woman!)

When they put down the screen and show timelapse of decomposing animals those songs were all bad I don't rember the titles though.
