What songs do you like to listen to when you're sad and/or depressed? The songs I like to listen to are Dreaming With A Broken Heart by John Mayer, Cancer by My Chemical Romance, and Walk Like A Man by Frank Valli and the Four Seasons (I really liked the movie Heart and Souls). So... what songs do you like to listen to? When you're sad, that is...

Cloudy Now - Blackfield

Disappear - Dream Theater
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Heartattack in a Layby - Porcupine Tree

Burzum - Dunkelheit
Endstille - Feindfahrt

Mostly any song by " The Good Life " or " Cursive ".....and i try to stay away from the postal service's song " this place is a prison " because it usually doesnt help. ----but i mean besides them, i listen to alot of stuff....but lately...its been those two bands....( same singer in T.G.L. and Cursive, Fun fact ).

I likethose songs Krossknife mentioned such as Hurt by NIN and then Johnny Cash, and also anything by Pink Floyd.

It's funny, Pink Floyd music is so slow and thoughtful and dreamy, some might say it is depressing...but ironically it makes me feel better when I listen to it! I like Learning to Fly by Pink Floyd and all of the Division Bell.

Yes, "Hurt" is an amazing song

Cool! Thanks guys!

I have heard of Dream Theatre but not Cursive or The Good Life. I'll check them out. Just so everyone knows you can listen to new bands free at Rhapsody.com (sign up for the free membership and you can listen to 25 free songs per month.) and even Yahoo Launch (less alternative bands, though, but you can see videos from cool bands. How about Garbage's cool video for "The World is Not Enough." Check it out on Yahoo launch and tell me what you think.

Good to see a Pink Floyd fan here! Dreamy is a pretty good word for them actually. That's what I like the most about them

I saw Roger Waters from Pink Floyd here in Stockholm last week. Best live performance I've ever seen ^^b

Hi Jeremi,

I LOVE how Pink Floyd creates images in your mind with music. For example at the beginning of Division Bell (I believe) there is the sound of a rowboat rowing slowly through the water. The music is so wonderful, dreamy, and creates a sort of imaginative state in the listener. You can picture yourself in another time, or another country, or another dimension in space. It's really quite beautiful.

What are some of your favorite songs? I know Learning to Fly is very popular but I think it's such a sad and yet beautiful piece of music.

Hey has everyone seen this one yet?!!!
