Not to bum everyone out... but today my fiance (I guess I should say ex fiance) decided to move to California (me in VA) with my two year old daughter who I pretty much love more than life itself.... (I'm OK with her decision because her only option for staying here is to room with her mother who is a totally evil woman, but her dad in CA is a very cool guy) I'm completely stuck here until I can find a job in CA sell my house and move all my crap out there (pain in the arse!) Basically I'm totally bummed about it am looking for input on the most depressing songs of all time... I'm completely burnt out on the cure.... any other ideas?

Please excuse spelling as I'm completely liquored up at the moment....

Time - Pink Floyd - Darkside Of The Moon

listen to "The Smiths" albums there great.

hmmm... just burned that the other day.... playing now goes quite nicely with my scotch... thanks!

My condolences, sir.

Kevin Gilbert - Song For A Dead Friend

yeah... I've been listening to "The smiths greatest hits" gotta love "girlfriend in a comma"... not to mention all my "morrissey" albums...

Oooops.... I meant "The Smiths - Singles" not greatest hits.....

Depeche Mode
- It Doesn't Matter

Thanks.... don't have that album... but I'll check it out!

I like to listen to Eric Clapton's Old Love from the Unplugged cd. It has special meaning for me. Course I have a playlist full of sad depressing songs.

'clinks a glass with you'

Maybe things will work out for you.

It's an instrumental, but the title matches the music, I guess you have to hear it to understand:

Steve Morse- "4 Minutes to Live" from the album "StressFest".

You guys are great... keep em coming...

Wow.... if things keep going this way I'm probably going to hit the bottom of this bottle...

Interesting story I never was a scotch drinker til I went to Ireland with my ex... I went to a liquor store in Dublin and asked the old guy behind the counter for a good decent priced bottle of scotch (for a friend) so he gave me a bottle of "The Famous Grouse" which I'm sure is not a great bottle of scotch.... but the old guy was so cool, I've been drinking it ever since... (well "ever since" meaning when I want to get smashed which is really only when I'm going through a hard time)

I just realized that this story is probably intersting to absolutely nobody... Oh well forgive me I'm smashed!

Speaking of being utterly smashed this this site is pretty cool

my vote has got to be "somebody" by Depeche Mode.. its even more depressing after you break up with someone...

The Cure - Disintegration - Disintegration

Joy Division - anything from Closer, or just the whole album

Stones---memory motel.

I am probably part of a very small minority here who listens to country, but if you would be willing to give it a listen, I think George Strait - Today My World Slipped Away can be pretty depressing.

Yup, you're right - the Famous Grouse is a good cheap export whisky, if you get the chance to try some of the more revered whiskies, I would heartily recommend it one of these-

Highland Park - possibly the smoothest whisky in existence
Bruichladdich - a pleasant peaty Islay malt
Macallan - mmmmmm

Hope all works out for you.

I could recommend almost anything by Gene, although most people have never heard of them. IMHO they were the greatest band to never quite make it and they are without a doubt my favorite. Listening to them helped me deal with the death of a friend whilst I was at university.

High Five Lopan, remember you always have us on the forum and ya depeche mode - somebody is a great track as mentioned

also btw, what part of cali?

The Sacremento area.... I've been there once..... dear god my head hurts this morning....

Drink a tall glass of cold milk!

It's what one of my brothers told me after I got drunk for the first time After I did I wondered why he started laughing, I never took his advice again.

I suppose since your suffering from a hangover, you don't have need for this anymore, but ...

David Allen Coe - Would you lay with me

Is fairly depressing, which is the only time I listen to it.

Roy ~ Emberwilde
Upon whispering winds, I weep, come and gone, like a dream in sleep!

What about Glenmorangie? <sp?> While in the duty free at Heathrow I was looking for a good bottle of scotch not available in the States. The "scotch sales rep" for lack of a better title, got me smashed on samples at 10AM and got me to buy a bottle of Glenmorangie. Not being a regular scotch drinker, I know nothing about brands, so I've been wondering how good it was... I got really drunk

Don't Know What You've Got Till It's Gone - Cinderella
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Ghost Town - Cheap Trick

Those are some of my depressing songs

Wow, that site is blocked by my corporate proxy. Guess they have something against nasty-tasting liquor.

Dont bash Jager dammit

The Sacremento area.... I've been there once.....

Hey, that's near my neck of the woods.

What do you do? I'll keep my eyes open for job opportunities. Do you have a specific location you need to move to, or just anywhere nearby?

The Cure - Boys don't cry
