Even though it's not meant to be depressing (I don't think so at least) I find "All of my Love" from Zepplin to make me a little depressed whenever I hear it. Anyone else?

Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen is a good one, but I have to give the crown to Johnny Cash's rendition of Hurt. The way it's sung makes it sound like the guy was going to die at the end of the song. (and he did die some 6 months later...)

Some other good ones (though not as good as the above two) are Paper Wings by Rise Against, and Bro Hymm by Pennywise. Both have the feel of losing a friend.

i still think Brick is pretty depressing.
that first line pretty much sets the scene of the most depressing time of the year.

BushX? errr... it's simply "Bush". Damn good band. Shame things are falling apart with them.

They were originally know as BushX, and yeah, awsome band, they are still putting out records (Nov1st they are releasing Zen X Four), but, not the same as it use to be.

Pink Floyd, "The Final Cut", both the song and the album are the most depressing works of art i have ever heard.
