Set the fire to the third bar - Snow Patrol
Hurt - Johnny Cash (cover)
Gorecki - Lamb
Who wants to live forever - Queen
Fifteen years - The Levellers
Too bad - Nickelback.
Missing - Everything but the girl
Everybody hurts - REM

These are the main ones that spring to mind for me.

There's this from the Buffy soundtrack, probably my favourite depressing song. Or I've always found DC Talk's 'The Hardway' good for bashing myself round the head with, depends what you want really.

[mrs_cj_harkness]

Oh just found the Buffy on youtube and wow. That is so good!

[autumnrae89]

Oh that's good. If you go with Buffy songs Ballad for Dead Friends by Dashboard Prophets is pretty good.

Anyways, I has made you a playlist. :)

The link is here

Songs include;

What hurts the most - Rascal Flats
It ends tonight - All American Rejects
My December - Linkin Park
Almost Lovers - A Fine Frenzy
I want you (She's so heavy) - Across the Universe Soundtrack
Breathe Me - Sia
My Friends - Johnny Depp
Could it be any harder - The Calling.

Just a few I like really. Maybe it'll help. :)

[mrs_cj_harkness]

Most of Evanescence first album is pretty depressing, Hurt by Nine Inch Nails (the original, it was later covered by Johnny Cash) and Fade to Black by Metallica (speak to me about music, i will always manage somehow to mention Metallica! XD)

That's all i can think of at the moment. And anyway, if you're depressed you shouldn't be listening to depressing songs! you should be listening to stupid, cheesey happy songs to cheer you up! (or just ogle the Janto) :P

[mrs_cj_harkness]

Oh yeah, I really like Evanescence!

LOL Metallica isn't too bad, so relating to it all the tiem isn't a particulaly bad thing :P

Well, I wanted a depressing song for my myspace profile, but now, I just like seeing everyones suggestions.

Okay then missy, what stupid, cheesy happy songs should I be listening to?? :P

[kimbobbee]

erm...no idea! i personally wouldn't touch cheesey happy songs with a ten-foot barge pole! ROFL! XD

but generally funny stuff to cheer you up! like looking at lolcats!

For example:

[mrs_cj_harkness]

LOLcats FTW escecially that one!!

And yes indeedy I am, care to give me your URL? I'd give you mine, but I have no idea what it is ;P

And ::cough:

Maybe ... have you?? ::suspicious eyes::

[mrs_cj_harkness]

U2 do depressing? Gosh.

I shall go and listen to these on my beloved youtube now.

::huggles back:: thank you!

Re: Your Mileage May Vary

[frankenshane]

Yep, at least one or two per album/era. In fact they have one called "A Day Without Me" but the music to it is too upbeat for it to be truly depressing. Should be on TV Tropes for lyrical dissonance though.

*HUGGLE* You're welcome.
