The Haunting Melancholy bummer play list

[lovecraft68]

We've celebrated rock and other music in threads here, but what about those dark brooding and at times downright depressing songs?

Whether you're trying to get in the mood for a darker melancholy story, or just feel like some gloom and doom, these are the songs that do the trick.

Wasn't a big Springsteen fan when I was younger and this song seemed kind of whiny to crash and burn wild me, but I recall hearing it again in my late twenties after some tough times, a failed marriage and some all around hard knock BS and damned if this fucker didn't hit a lot harder.

Playing this over a montage from the original Crow movie adds to the power of this one.

Some people may disagree with this one, but for me it has that darkish vibe to it.

Another one from Seether, I titled an e-book series which was a total trainwreck of a dark romance after this song

One of my all time favorites

Original is great, but man did this guy own this

Another from Simon and Garfunkel. This is a tough one for me, a cousin of mine who died of a heroin overdose when she was 19 (I was 16) used to play this all the time.
