If you want Depressing, look no further than Sopor Aeternus & the Ensemble of Shadows.

"Tom Traubert's Blues, or Four Sheets to the Wind in Copenhagen" by Tom Waits.

If you've never heard it, look it up, it's a compilation of some of the saddest imagery ever put into one song.

So far I don't find the videos all that sad ...

Check out the Great Gig in The Sky by Pink Floyd on YouTube. No words, just voice and keyboards, and it's hauntingly sad ...

Another one.

Smashing Pumpkins - To Forgive

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68sAIUyxTbc

This one it's mainly the lyrics that are really depressing.

"Hallelujah" by k.d. Lang -- She has such emotion and angst.

Wow I love this song but my preferred version is by Jeff Buckley

I also love "Unloved" by Jann Arden
