Which Songs Make You Want To Kill Yourself?
I don't mean that in a bad way.
The new book, I Hate Myself and Want to Die : The 52 Most Depressing Songs You've Ever Heard takes a look at the most depressing songs of all time.
Now, I don't mean "depressing" as in "most country music makes Brian want to commit murder and is therefore depressing".
I'm talking about good songs that just happen to be a little on the dark/demonic/patently unhappy side of things.
A few examples I can think of:
"Traveling Soldier" by The Dixie ChicksWhat you got?
"Angel" by Sarah McLachlan
"Fade Into You" by Mazzy Star
"How Soon Is Now?" by The Smiths
