Gods, Emilie Autumn- What If. :eek2:
And from Miss Tori Amos- Ribbons Undone and Garlands.

You don't know me
Never will, never will
I'm outside your picture frame
And the glass is breaking now
You can't see me
Never will, never will
If you're never gonna see

"What If"

Jonathan Coulton's "When You Go" is the most recent.

Strange Fruit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4ZyuULy9zs), Billie Holiday.

I haven't had any songs affect me that strongly in a long time. These songs don't devastate me now, but they used to, especially the Sarah McLachlan song.

Baby Bitch (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb15XAgGPnI) by Ween puts an angry lump in my throat.

People say, how beautiful, how sweet, how kind.
You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide.
But I, for one, have seen the sun
And the bitch that you've locked up inside.

Got fat, got angry, started hating myself.
Wrote birthday boy for you babe.
Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid
Without a cent to my name.

Baby, baby, baby bitch.
Fuck you, you stinkin' ass ho
Most beauty I've seen
You come from a dream.
But I cant close my eyes anymore.
No, I cant close my eyes anymore.

One of my favorites. He sounds so pathetic and broken.
though I need to be drunk and maudlin
This helps, certainly. I've got a special list of songs I listen to when I'm alone, drunk and depressed after 3 AM.

Cat Power - "Maybe Not" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skreabVrMRk&feature=related)
Tracy Chapman - "Fast Car" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfqEisOIMJc)
Arch Enemy - "The Day You Died" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UY7OytpmqQ)
Straylight Run - "Now It's Done" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qm14xk8lNGM)
The Delgados - "The Drowning Years" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y2YEO1pgA0) (although that whole album, Hate, is both devastating and cool)

Valse Triste, but only when accompanied by Depressing Cat (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cjCPZaZe8Q) (Depressing Cat is depressing).

"Full Circle" by Loreena McKennitt.

"Curtains" by Peter Gabriel.

The only song that depresses me to which I listen regularly is And All That Could Have Been, by NIN.

I had the unfortunatecy of watching this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mz3ZzSXyWM&feature=channel_page)

Yesterday-Atmosphere (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAVev8rVeKE)

Till there was you (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mF85LIZN60) listened to it when I was 16...anthem of me being a failure

yeah I suck at this :/

This song too: Linky. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI)

This video is not available in your country?!:mad:

Classical:
The Nessun Dorma, particularly when performed by Pavarotti.

The fourth movement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 in D minor, the Ode to Joy.

Modern:

Queen's Who Wants to Live Forever? and The Show Must Go On.

Yoko Kanno's Inner Universe.

Just for Now (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpkKPimVjm8)- Imogen Heap:(

Arch Enemy - "The Day You Died" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UY7OytpmqQ)

I am quite surprised that someone posted this song before me...in the album liner notes, it states that the song was inspired by the movie Grave of the Fireflies (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095327/), which is equally devastating.

Also...

Hurt - by Nine Inch Nails (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjwgYvzQWS4)

A Stranger - by A Perfect Circle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb2W_xkJ2G0)

Live Again - by Sevendust (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmVqinAKJnI)

10,000 Days - by Tool (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-0rLI6-skQ)

Carry the Blessed Home - by Blind Guardian (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub1cBcHQpzA)

...also, Fear Factory's New Promise, and Stabbing Westward's Waking Up Beside You (which have no YouTube vids that aren't crappy anime tributes)

Time - Tom Waits

I am a tad affected by some of Beethoven's works. Popular modern music does not "touch" me; all the lyrics are of a poetry which uses metaphors I do not understand (except for rap, which I can easily comprehend, but not enjoy), and the voices have been so artificially altered I feel like I am listening to a robot.

under the bridge - Red hot Chili Peppers (Personal reasons)
I think Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits is a sad song too.

Gessekai- Buck-Tick.

"Carousel" by Hannah Fury. (http://www.last.fm/music/Hannah+Fury/_/Carousel?autostart)

Beautiful but oh so emotional. I think anyone who doesn't cry listening to that song should be officially declared not to be human.

Superman-Five for Fighting

All Around Me (http://www.imeem.com/lilocutehmongboi/music/5ts0kbjJ/flyleaf-all-around-me/)- Flyleaf.

It devastates me and elates me.

I am quite surprised that someone posted this song before me...in the album liner notes, it states that the song was inspired by the movie Grave of the Fireflies (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095327/), which is equally devastating.
I think that the mental association with Grave has a lot to do with the song's effect. I love Angela's vocals, but her screaming doesn't really lend itself to sadness.
"Carousel" by Hannah Fury. (http://www.last.fm/music/Hannah+Fury/_/Carousel?autostart)

Beautiful but oh so emotional. I think anyone who doesn't cry listening to that song should be officially declared not to be human.

I have heard that song before. I watched the movie (Grave of the fireflies, Hotaru no Haka)like a month ago with a lot of japanese people and was devastated. I even cried in public after it finished. So devastated that I watched it again yesterday. (I'm not an emotional masochist, but if a movie reach my feelings, deserves a second session). Such a coincidence I get to read about it the next day.

Did you know that the title has a lot of different meanings?

Popular modern music does not "touch" me; all the lyrics are of a poetry which uses metaphors I do not understand (except for rap, which I can easily comprehend, but not enjoy), and the voices have been so artificially altered I feel like I am listening to a robot.

I do not reach that point of disdain, but I am also more affected by some classical music than to modern. Yet I refer to classical (or "academic" music, I think the "classical" label is a common mistake in english) as "works", not as "songs". For me the word "song" is more applied to popular than to academic music.

My personal list includes Elgar, particularly "Nimrod" from Enigma variations, and the Cello concerto, (my favourites are the version by Jacqueline Du Pré and by myself, meaning that I usually play it when I am extremely depressed), also the second movement of the 7th symphony by Beethoven. I am not so affected by the 5th symphony as most people are. The first movement of the Mendelssohn's 3rd symphony, the first movement of "Winter" by Vivaldi, most arias from Tosca and several chants from the Mozart's "Requiem". "Pavane pour une infante défunte" of Ravel. 6th and Manfred symphonies from Tchaikovsky.

You know, that song would be quite lovely, if it wasn't for the annoying vocals.

I do not reach that point of disdain,

I do not necessarily disdain popular music (expect for the redundant songs which try to convince the listener of the virtues of drugs and murder), I just was not raised on it. I can tell many of the songs have complex and poetic lyrics, but they are lyrics I cannot understand. The voice alterations--echos and warps--disorient me.

but I am also more affected by some classical music than to modern. Yet I refer to classical (or "academic" music, I think the "classical" label is a common mistake in english) as "works", not as "songs". For me the word "song" is more applied to popular than to academic music.

Right. I call it "art music".

My personal list includes Elgar, particularly "Nimrod" from Enigma variations, and the Cello concerto, (my favourites are the version by Jacqueline Du Pré and by myself, meaning that I usually play it when I am extremely depressed), also the second movement of the 7th symphony by Beethoven. I am not so affected by the 5th symphony as most people are. The first movement of the Mendelssohn's 3rd symphony, the first movement of "Winter" by Vivaldi, most arias from Tosca and several chants from the Mozart's "Requiem". "Pavane pour une infante défunte" of Ravel. 6th and Manfred symphonies from Tchaikovsky.

Those are fine choices; in fact, the Allegretto of Beethoven's 7th was just what I was thinking of when I posted the composer's name--though I generally listen to his pieces in full (of course, I, unlike yourself, am never the one playing them), that movement is something I will listen to by itself for "mood" purposes.

Ooh, Barber's Adagio for Strings. Can't believe I forgot to mention that.

Electronik Supersonic by Zlad.
I dunno, but every time I listen to it I'm deeply touched.... maybe all the way down to the Coccyx.
Just kidding, but no seriously, I love this song!

This song too: Linky. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI)

DAMN YOU!

*takes one of the cane I've stone and starts beating you with it*

what do you mean by "totally devastate you"?

Classical:

The fourth movement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 in D minor, the Ode to Joy.

Modern:

Queen's Who Wants to Live Forever? and The Show Must Go On.

Yoko Kanno's Inner Universe.
Not bad.

There are a few, to be certain, but i can't really ruminate much anymore ... have to focus on my little dudes.
I've probably posted them at some point before.

A Stranger - by A Perfect Circle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb2W_xkJ2G0)
Stabbing Westward's Waking Up Beside You (which have no YouTube vids that aren't crappy anime tributes)Also not bad. I play both of those for shows, on occasion. "Why" and "Red on White" from Stabbing Westward aren't bad examples, nor are "Rose" and "The Fiddle And The Drum" from APC, all of which I play on occasion (well, sing "The Fiddle And The Drum", not so much play)

Missing- Evanescence
Hello, nurse!

Hard to me to believe, but i don't think i've actually heard this one.

I should re-listen to my Stabbing Westward...it's been a while.

If you're going off of Mer de Noms, I go with 3 Libras over Rose for "devastating", but that's just me.

I love 3 Libras, and it was the first tune i learned from them (oddly i was the only local guy who could sing Maynard and play that simultaneously) - and i do love the tune, but the rawness and intent of Rose strikes me in a stronger and deeper way than 3 Libras did. Not by much, but they're really, really different tunes and meanings. Of course, what a person says when they perform isn't always what a listener hears, so there's only certain occasion pf performance for Rose while more for 3 Libras. :)

Jill Sobule, "Mexican Wrestler" from Pink Pearl.

what do you mean by "totally devastate you"?

Manvy Manvy, don't tell me I must give you English classes now.:D

Totally= wholly; completely.
Devastate= to lay waste; make desolate; ravage; destroy; to make helpless.
You= 2nd person.

The song is entitled "Komm, süsser Tod", is sung by a performer named Arianne, and appeared in The End of Evangelion.

Also Lacrymosa composed by Dmitri Yanov-Yanovsky and performed by The Kronos Quartet with Dawn Upshaw. I couldn't find a sample longer than a few seconds, so you'll have to take my word for it.

Hymn to the Sea (http://www.last.fm/music/James+Horner/_/Hymn+to+the+Sea) - James Horner / Titanic

It devastated me once or twice, and that was it.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow - Israel Kamakawiwo'ole.

At first I couldn't remember who made that song, so I made what I could remember using a midi sythesizer. What I made in the synthesizer devastated me. I cried for a whole hour. :tongue:

The only song that could devastate me is called, "You have Cancer and One Week To Live."

Sarah McLachlan's "Full of Grace". Not for the lyrics per se, but because I associate it with the season two finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Ooh, good choice. I must of course mention Amy Lee's version of it, in addition, not in eclipse.

Sarah McLachlan's "Full of Grace". Not for the lyrics per se, but because I associate it with the season two finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Ah. Ice.
The ice is thin come on dive in
underneath my lucid skin
the cold is lost, forgotten
Hours pass days pass time stands still
light gets dark and darkness fills
my secret heart forbidden...
I think you worried for me then
the subtle ways that I'd give in but I know
you liked the show
tied down to this bed of shame
you tried to move around the pain but oh
your soul is anchored

The only comfort is the moving of the river
You enter into me, a lie upon your lips
offer what you can, I'll take all that I can get
only a fool's here...

I don't like your tragic sighs
as if your god has passed you by well hey fool
that's your deception
your angels speak with jilted tongues
the serpent's tale has come undone you have no
strength to squander

The only comfort is the moving of the river
You enter into me, a lie upon your lips
offer what you can, I'll take all that I can get
only a fool's here to stay
only a fool's here to stay
only a fool's here...
Listen to it.
And Home Was Good from OSI.

Ooh, good choice. I must of course mention Amy Lee's version of it, in addition, not in eclipse.

I hadn't heard that until a minute ago when I looked it up. Interesting, but not the same song, rather they both take their name from the same place--as part of the requiem mass (means weeping, I believe, something like that). Yanov-Yanovsky's composition takes the text from the requiem mass entirely. The vocalist has an almost unanchored melody against the quartet's measured figures. At least that's what I can remember from the liner notes...anyway, pretty haunting...

Straughn: It's Full of Grace on my CD, although I'm prepared to believe it may go by multiple names. The one that really rips me up, however - to the point that I can't listen to it when I'm feeling even slightly glum because it will make me totally depressed and weepy ... actually, heck, I can't listen to it ever - is Angel. Which is apparently about Hollywood celebrity drug overdoses, but still.

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet

Every roommate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don’t miss you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you

Only when I stop to think
About you, I know
Only when you stop to think
About me, do you know

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me

I hate
You hate

You love me

Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone

Mad World - Tears for Fear

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

Escúchate esta, mi niña.:eek:

Snow White Queen (http://www.imeem.com/zoren/video/qQoVsUR8/evanescence-snow-white-queen-music-video/)- Evanescence

Yeah that is another band. Geez, will you guys cheer up?

darkness, pain, loss, dying, ghost, repeat....

Sarah McLachlan's "Full of Grace". Not for the lyrics per se, but because I associate it with the season two finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.


I think she was Siren in her last life. She has voice that could lure sailors to their death on the rocks. Haunting.

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet

Every roommate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don’t miss you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you

Only when I stop to think
About you, I know
Only when you stop to think
About me, do you know

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me

I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you

OMG I fucking love that song!
I can think of two. Damn.

Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.

Mad World - Tears for Fear



These 2 get to me aswell.

I'm goth, not emo.

Dude, did you even LOOK at the bands I listed?

Im way too old to want to know the difference. To me 85% of all kids under the age of 20 are emo anyway. And a significant minority of women never grow out of it.

85%? Damn! You must be old. Ever heard of chavs?

Nope.

Nope.

Really!?
They're also called
Townies, Kevs, Hood Rats, Charvers, Steeks, Stigs, Bazzas, Yarcos, Ratboys, Chorer, Skangers, Scutters, Janners, Kappa Slappers, Scallies, and Spides. Also known as Neds in Scotland, knackers & skangers in Ireland, and Guidos in the USA

Since that means I'm at least a decade and a half away from being qualified as an emo on one of your criteria, and at least a vagina away for qualifying on the other...

Straughn: It's Full of Grace on my CD, although I'm prepared to believe it may go by multiple names. The one that really rips me up, however - to the point that I can't listen to it when I'm feeling even slightly glum because it will make me totally depressed and weepy ... actually, heck, I can't listen to it ever - is Angel. Which is apparently about Hollywood celebrity drug overdoses, but still.
Gotcha. She tore me apart with Ice, so i of course obsessed a while and got the imports and bootlegs i could get a hold of - including one of the first times (if not the) she played it live, as "Fall From Grace". I listened to that the first time on an unplanned 156 mile walk-turned-bike ride, along here:

I hadn't heard that until a minute ago when I looked it up. Interesting, but not the same song, rather they both take their name from the same place--as part of the requiem mass (means weeping, I believe, something like that). Yanov-Yanovsky's composition takes the text from the requiem mass entirely. The vocalist has an almost unanchored melody against the quartet's measured figures. At least that's what I can remember from the liner notes...anyway, pretty haunting...Absolutely. I'm proud of her take on it, as well as the original, of course.

Maynard said something about it too before they released 10,000 Days.

Here's a golden oldie from the seventies.
Margaret Roadknight, a tall slender feminist from Australia, sang "Girls in our town" about life for young girls in a country town........ quite sad and haunting:

And here's one I posted last Christmas from the movie "Joyeux Noel" that was based on a real incident on Xmas Eve 1914 when British, French and German troops stopped fighting each other and fraternised:

"Monaksia mou ola"

Στις άδειες πόλεις που γυρνάς
Stis adeies poleis pou girnas
εικόνες σε ξοδεύουν
eikones se ksodevoun
Αδύναμος να προσκυνάς
Adinamos na proskinas
αυτούς που σε ληστεύουν
aftous pou se listevoun

Σαν Δαίμονας να κουβαλάς
San daimonas na kouvalas
του κόσμου τους χειμώνες
tou kosmou tous xeimones
Στα μάτια σου να κυνηγάς
Sta matia sou na kinigas
παλιούς μικρούς κανόνες
palious mikrous kanones

Μοναξιά μου όλα
Monaksia mou ola
μοναξιά μου τίποτα
monaksia mou tipota
Μην μ' αφήνεις τώρα
Min m’afineis tora
που είναι όλα πιο δύσκολα
pou einai ola pio diskola

Τις νύχτες ντύνεσαι μικρός κάποιον να ξεγελάσεις
Tis nixtes dinesai mikros kapoion na ksegelaseis
Και ένα κακό που ήρθε χθες τρέχεις για να προφτάσεις
Kai ena kako pou irthe xthes trexeis gia na proftaseis
Μοιάζουν οι δρόμοι με φωτιά τα βράδια του θανάτου
Moiazoun oi dromoi me fotia ta vradia tou thanatou

Έρωτας που θυμίζει πια αρένα στ' άγγιγμα του
Erotas pou thimizei pia arena st’ aggigma tou
Έρωτα μου τώρα έρωτα μου τίποτα
Erota mou tora erota mou tipota
Μην μ' αφήνεις τώρα που είναι όλα πιο δύσκολα
Min m’afineis tora pou einai ola pio diskola

Translation:
In the empty cities you return
Images go through you
Faint as you are to worship
Those who raid you

Like a demon to carry
The winters of the world
In her eyes to chase after
Old small principles

My loneliness is everything
My loneliness is nothing
Do not leave me now
When everything is harder

My love is everything
My love is nothing
Do not leave me now
For everything is harder

Tiny in the nights you dress
You will delude someone
And the harm that came yesterday
You run to overhaul it

The streets look like fire
The evenings of death
Love that has the smell of
Arena in its touch (death's)
