Oooo... I forgot that one on my list. Good choice. If anyone saw the Austin City Limits with Beck on it, he did a heart rending version of this song on there...
--Chris
I can't make you love me - Bonnie Raitt: This one speaks for itself for anyone who's ever been turned away by a loved one.
Hymn to the Fallen (Theme from Saving Private Ryan) - John Williams: This one makes my hair stand on end every time I hear it and makes me want to lower my head in memory of all the fallen soldiers.
Various songs off August and Everything After by Counting Crows: Mostly because is was an album that came out during a bad time in my life.
Wonderful - Everclear: This song represents so much of the feeling of a child of divorce that the first time I heard it as an adult, it made me choke up because it spoke to things I recalled feeling as a child.

Good call on "I Can't Make You Love Me". I can't recall off-hand who wrote it but Ms. Raitt does the best rendition ever (BTW that's Bruce Hornsby on the piano).
My vote goes to "Place to Be" by Nick Drake... the whole Pink Moon album could qualify, but this song in particular just hits deep. It's also one of my favorites to play on guitar.
Also I want to give a runner-up vote to Track 8 on the Sigur Ros "( )" album. If I were ever to leave a musical suicide note it would be on it for sure! Beautiful song though.

everytime i hear that song, i think of my good friend who commiteed suicide. it makes me sad
but not as sad as
BLIND MELON - NO RAIN
you realized how depressed shannon hoon really was....
i dont understand while i sleep all day
and i start to complain when there is no rain
all i can do is read a book to stay awake
and it rips my life away but its a great escape
and my favorite lyric from any song
you dont like my point of view, and i am insane
Some picks off the top of my head...
Jeff Buckley - "Lover, You Should've Come Over"
Chris Cornell - "Wave Goodbye"
Pearl Jam - "Immortality"
Temple of the Dog - Say Hello 2 Heaven"
Jeff Buckley - "Lover, You Should've Come Over"
Chris Cornell - "Wave Goodbye"
Pearl Jam - "Immortality"
Temple of the Dog - Say Hello 2 Heaven"
Nine Inch Nails - And all that could have been.
Awesome song, but don't listen to it if you are suicidal.

A thread about depressing songs and only on the fourth page does someone mention radiohead?
But Fake plastic trees gets me more than Creep does.

I was considering putting FPT as well...!
And i was going through looking for someone to say Radiohead, and was like WTF when no-one had
Depends on my mood.
Most often: My Dying Bride - For My Fallen Angel
Sometimes: Within Temptation - Our Farewell

Wow, I'm also surprised at the late mention of anything Radiohead.
To a lesser extent, a little shocked not to see this one vouched for...
The Freshmen - The Verve Pipe (even the original, non-live/acoustic version on Villains--the one without a gazillion hours of radio play-time--oughta rank up there in this category)

Also Tender by Blur, especially when you've just been dumped. Is he singing "heal me" or "kill me" at the end?
