    Jeff Buckley does have some sad stuff. I don't listen to a lot of it, but what I do listen to I like very much.

    Here are a few more I forgot to mention.

    Thornley - Beautiful
    Smile Empty Soul - Sillhouettes
    Slipknot - Vermilion Part 2 (Beautiful song)
    Queensryche - Silent Lucidity
    Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes (They did a great job with this, I like it more than The Who)
    Tommy Lee - Hold Me Down, Blue, Ashamed (I, personally, was surprised at how great of a CD Never A Dull Moment really was.)


    I am listening to The Scorpions - Still Loving You and I get reminded of the trip I took to Washington DC with my class last summer. On the way home I listened to this song on repeat all night. I didn't want to sleep on the bus so I listened to music, but I got hooked on this song. I think I probably listened to it about 50 times that night. Another song that reminds me of that trip is Comfortably Numb. When I went on family vacations, we'd always drive home over night and my dad would listen to a lot of Pink Floyd. Comfortably Numb reminds me a lot of those times. Great memories.

    "The Man Who Couldn't Cry" -Johnny Cash

    Of course, what happens to this poor son of a bitch in the song is so depressing that I laugh every time I hear it, so maybe it doesn't count. I would have nominated the Man in Black's "Delia", but the first time I heard it I was more like "Dude, that's totally fucked," rather than depressed.

    Needle in the Hay is a very good song. I didn't like it the first time I heard it but I woke up and it was playing and I dig it through the roof.

    The Decemberists - A Cautionary Song
    The Decemberists - Clementine.

    I can't remember if I already posted those or not...

    Hey, nobody gets as down and depressing as many of these lightweight girl singers. I love Aimee Mann's shortie, "Jacob Marley's Chain."

    Well today a friend told me this sorry tale
    As he stood there trembling and turning pale.
    He said, "Each day's harder to get on the scale,
    Sort of like Jacob Marley's chain."

    Now it's not that life is such a vale of tears.
    It's just full of thoughts that act as souvenirs
    Of those tiny blunders made in yesteryears
    That comprise Jacob Marley's chain.

    - Well I had a little metaphor to state my case.
    - It encompassed the condition of the human race.
    - But to my dismay it left without a trace,
    - All except for the sound of Jacob Marley's chain.

    Now there's no more story left for me to tell,
    So I think I'll just be heading straight for Hell,
    Where there's a snowball's chance that the personnel
    Will have to carry Jacob Marley's chain.
