i know this has already been done, but i wanted to make a new one. so, post what you think is the most depressing songs ever written. i think glycerine from bush, and letters to God from boxcar racer.
everyone else?

Asami
This is weird, because the song is happy and cheery but "The Boys Of Summer" always makes me feel sad and depressed. It was last year where I kept hearing it, what's weirder is that I had a really really good summer so.... *confused*

Darth Revan
Everlast- "What It's Like"
Marilyn Manson- "Last Day on Earth"
Bad Religion- "Sorrow"

HockeyHorror

eventhough its not the entire song

HockeyHorror
ok dont click sig anymore, i took the link out. but if u want to see the link just pm me big grin

Victor Von Doom
I know what you mean. I get the same thing sometimes, it's a nostalgic temporality thing.

I'd say anything from Grace by Jeff Buckley, although it's more melancholy than 'depressing'. Depressing is shit music.

Alpha Centauri
Anyone who makes music for the sole purpose of making you feel shit, is a shit musician. Conveying your own depression is a different matter.

the most depressing song eva is definetly hypocrisy - slipping away
Feel every things circumstantial
Realise the nonsense of existing
Start to put to an end to this lost life
There ain't no change for the better

So I'll choose it from death
Memories been bless this one day
Take the tears and the pain
My soul I sold to prolong.

Don't tell me / I'm dying

Tired of / Bury the pain
As I bury this knife in my body
Slowly Slipping Away
To another dimension of virtue

My soul now slipping away in vain
A man greets me from the other side
"Welcome To Hell"
"Me? My name's Death"
So please forgive this heart
And these dreams that we've felt

this is one of the depressing songs eva

We All Fall In Love Sometimes/ Curtains

by Elton John

Wise men say
It looks like rain today
It crackled on the speakers
And trickled down the sleepy subway trains
For heavy eyes could hardly hold us
Aching legs that often told us
It's all worth it
We all fall in love sometimes

The full moon's bright
And starlight filled the evening
We wrote it and I played it
Something happened it's so strange this feeling
Naive notions that were childish
Simple tunes that tried to hide it
But when it comes
We all fall in love sometimes

Did we, didn't we, should we couldn't we
I'm not sure `cause sometimes we're so blind
Struggling through the day
When even your best friend says
Don't you find
We all fall in love sometimes

And only passing time
Could kill the boredom we acquired
Running with the losers for a while
But our Empty Sky was filled with laughter
Just before the flood
Painting worried faces with a smile
***********************
I used to know this old scarecrow
He was my song, my joy and sorrow
Cast alone between the furrows
Of a field no longer sown by anyone

I held a dandelion
That said the time had come
To leave upon the wind
Not to return
When summer burned the earth again

Cultivate the freshest flower
This garden ever grew
Beneath these branches
I once wrote such childish words for you

But that's okay
There's treasure children always seek to find
And just like us
You must have had
A once upon a time

Capt_Fantastic
Little more description, what year did it come out?

BloomBabyGirl

Punkyhermy
Sad but true by Metallica
The unforgiven by Metallica
and ummm

Capt_Fantastic
Dear, that's not Elton John. I forget his name, but it's not Elton.

Tirekicker
I don't know why everybody left out the smashing pumpkins, they are one of my top three most depressing bands. The other two are radiohead and bright eyes.

Smashing pumpkins- "crestfallen", "blank page", "soot & stars"
Radiohead- "I Will" (Yorke chose this song as the most depressing song he's ever written), "bullet proof I wish I was", "exit music for a film"
Bright Eyes- "lover I don't have to love", "You Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will", "an attempt to tip the scales"

one other by the smashing pumpkins is "spaceboy", about his younger step-brother - Jesse - who had mild cerebral palsy, Tourette's syndrome, heart problems and a chromosomal disorder.

JimMorrison227
4 AM by Our Lady Piece is surprisingly sad.

miahera

oh and who can forget Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler.

JimMorrison227

dean7879
hypocrisy - slippin away

Stoic
Vera - Pink Floyd

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
Remember how she said that, we would meet
again, some sunny day.

(Music Score)

Vera, Vera, what has become of you? Does
anybody else in here feel the way I do?


Although this song is very short it is the absolute most depressing song that I have ever heard. I imagine that Vera Lynn was some young woman that was loved by a man, and on the day that they separated after a long summer, Vera Lynn promised to see him again. However, as time proceeded she either found another, or just simply forgot about him, which resulted in there never being another sunny day for them.

NinthCorona
Jesus Christ - Brand New
How Long Will They Mourn Me? - 2Pac ft. Nate Dogg

Darth Jello
Hnha3hUJzpU

Bat Dude
Wow... SUPER BUMP!

Anyway:

Creep - Radiohead
Disarm - Smashing Pumpkins
Hurt - Johnny Cash

Those are about as "depressing" as it gets, imo. I don't listen to music to feel depressed.

This band is too underrated, if you ask me. This song is one of my "angry/sad songs".

_HnDVKiWDYM

-Standby-
The Misery by Sonata Arctica
A beautiful but seriously depressing song by the always-epic Sonata Arctica.
I wanted to post the link but it wouldn't let me...so just look on YouTube smile

Darth Jello
I just mention it in another thread so I may as well post this to the depressing thread even though it's less a song and more just a recorded track. John Lennon and Yoko Ono's Unfinished Music #2: Life With The Lions has a track on it called Baby's Heartbeat. It's several minutes of their soon to be stillborn child's dying, palpitating heart. That is depressing and disturbing right there.
