[55078]

i know it's over - the smiths

it kills me!

edit: especially this bit

If you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very good-looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight ?
I know ...
'Cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight

 

[skinnier]

mmm
there is a light that never goes out - smiths
recently:

you're a crisis, you're an icicle

and that's all you do

i might be wrong - radiohead

^^ i think that 'there is a light that never goes out' is the most romantic song ever! not at all sad, in my opinion!

arvo part - "fur alina"
swans - "killing for company"
smog - "bathysphere"
funkadelic - "maggot brain"
miles davis - "he loved him madly"
slint - "washer"
the chameleons - "second skin"
gene clark - "the strength of strings"

[runtlocks]

funkadelic - "maggot brain"

I find this ridiculously inspiring more than depressing. Best guitar work, ever.

slint - "washer"

leonard cohen - "famous blue raincoat"

Sincerely, L. Cohen

 

[gosh]

the pretenders- "i'll stand by you"
always conjures up images from those animal activist ads

 

[55078]

yeah i've heard that
it makes me sad still

yes, sometimes songs just make us sad for unknown reasons! i have many of them myself, really.

 

[Atticus.]

just in terms of sad memories the two most mood wrecking heart wrenching songs are

A.D.D
ten foot pole

and a song i wrote for a mate ages ago called end game

 

[Mojoman]

pink floyd - the final cut
leonard cohen - take this longing
joy division - day of the lords
etc.

 

[lourai*87]

3 libras - A perfect circle -- mainly cos it reminds me of my ex but its beautiful
vincent - don mclean
walk on - u2
closing time (i have the ben folds version of it) - it was our last song at the formal
the luckiest - ben folds
into the night - The Music -- again reminds of ex
harvest - opeth -- it has such a beautifully haunting sound, makes me emotional
hope leaves - opeth -- again, beautifully haunting

I had to remove all this sort of stuff from my mp3, i would end up in a sad reflective mood at uni all day. There are so many more.

 

[libertine]

Sigur Ros - Vaka

 

[Mr Lovepony]

Crazy- Nelly Furtado covering Gnarls Barkley (the original version is way too funky to be sad)

Wolf at the Door- Radiohead

Age of Consent- New Order

Forgot, Baby Doll- Cat Power (just the atmosphere that it creates)

 

[icecreamdisco]

Age of Consent- New Order
