Can't believe no one has mentioned

Black Sabbath - Solitude on the Master of Reality disc.

Has to be one of the all time depressing songs ever. One time my friend was all messed up. i went over to his house and found him sitting in a chair staring at the wall with this song on repeat. I thought he was going to snap.

System of a Down - Chop Suey

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
(tribute to his pre-school son, who fell off a high rise in a fluke accident)

[troymclur]

I Didn't Understand by Elliot Smith, his most depressing song (yes, i realize the gravity of what i just said)

Not in english, but Gortoz A Ran from Black Hawk Down is strong with the melancholly.

Also, The Chelsea Hotel by Leonard Cohen is pretty sad. He has one of those downtrodden voices.

You are my sunshine is really sad if you listen to the lyrics. The song itself always made me happy until i took a moment to process what he was saying.

How is something this loud, fast, and hard be DEPRESSING? I use it to get fired up.

[Hoi Polloi]

My depression music is Leonard Cohen. He at least deserves a place of honor on such a list. I would add:

So long, Marianne
Famous Blue Raincoat
Everybody Knows
Who By Fire

[FlushTheToilet]

Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible. The whole album is pure bleak nastiness, and also their best. Some clues in the track titles: "Of Walking Abortion", "Archives Of Pain", "The Intense Humming Of Evil"...etc.

I like their music but it is kind of a downer...

[renodoc]

I find Comfortably Numb uplifting.

Much of Animals is a downer, as are other parts of The Wall.

Almost all of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (obv)

No one mention Chris issak????
