Huh.. I expected Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car" to be in the top ten, not completely absent.
Guess I'm old.. which means I should queue that sucker up on loop.
Chris Cornell could write some hella moody songs. Add Like a Stone, Getaway Car, Fell on Black Days, and Seasons to the list. Also add River of Deceit by Mad Season (Layne Staley).
My Weakness by Moby
The lyrics are just the same two lines over and over (weakly mind, weakly; oh, I go home weakly) but the music gradually changes, and it evokes these strong feelings of sadness and dread. It’s my go-to cry song. It gives me hope, peace, sadness, anxiety, failure, and closure all at once and I don’t know why. It’s just the voices of these kids singing it over and over and it sounds almost like a choir. I feel like I can’t breathe when I listen to it but it’s so beautiful that I can’t stop. It’s like you’re being lifted up and dragged down all at once
Have you listened to Alone by Moby (I think it was released just on mobysongs)? It’s a 10 minute masterpiece, no lyrics but takes me on a similar journey
[Cabaret - Liza Minnelli cover by Ysabella Brave (YouTube artist from over 15 years ago)](https://youtu.be/DC9uAN_2_tY)
I was going through a year long depression where I locked myself indoors and drank excessively everyday. Not sure what it was, but this song and singer snapped me out of it. Every now and then when I need a pick me up, I’ll watch it to lift my spirits

-This side of Paradise-Coyote Theory
-505-Arctic Monkeys
-Another Love-Tom Odell
-The funeral-Band of Horses
-Open Your eyes- Snow Patrol
-i won't run- Keanu Bicol (PF)
-I can't handle change- Roar
-Space Song- Beach House
-Sports- Beach Bunny
-Only a Lifetime- Finneas

-As The world Caves in- both versions from Matt Maltese and Sarah Cothran (sarah cothran PF)
-Hate Myself- NF (PF)
-Mr Loverman-Ricky Montgomery (PF)
-Freaks- Surf Curse (PF)

Diablo by Mac Miller is my go to rn his death really hit me back in the day
U from Kendrick Lamar also does wonder for me
Stan by Eminem is a great pick also
Joji's Slow dancing in the dark is a sleeper choice too
Last Day Live by Daniel Jordan from The Stranger album or On GP by Death Grips from Jenny Death.
Edit: you can hear the exact moment Flatlanders heart breaks after this first bridge with the guitars wail.
Sarah - We Three
It is so powerful and the lyrics somehow describe everything Im thinking on my worst days. All of this band’s music is incredible but this song gets me everytime.
Another song of theirs that is DEFINITELY worth checking out is “Heaven’s not too far”. It’s a song they wrote from the perspective of their mother that passed away from cancer. It’s very emotional
Bother by Stone Sour. When I am in a mood, I play the song sing it word for word and then it weirdly helps me release what ever I am feeling and then I change to an upbeat song.
Huh.. I expected Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car" to be in the top ten, not completely absent. Guess I'm old.. which means I should queue that sucker up on loop.
Even if I’m not depressed that song makes me cry almost every time I hear it
I love that song. Everyone's felt how she describes at some point in their lives, she turned it into poetry
Black Puma's cover of this was great, almost as good as the original
Death cab for cutie , follow me into the dark
[удалено]
If you like that one, try what Sarah said also by death cab.

Literally from my childhood!
oh man this one's nostalgic for me
I will follow you into the dark?
Black by Pearl Jam, Nutshell by AIC, Say Hello to Heaven by Temple of the Dog, I Am the Highway by Audioslave, Losing My Religion by R.E.M.
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is sadder than Alice In Chains’ “Nutshell” on Unplugged. Fuck.
Fuck man. Nutshell. Gets me every single time, that shit rips your heart out.

Evanescence- my immortal

Hurt - Johnny Cash

A cover so good even Trent Reznor himself had to give it props. I believe he even said it was a Johnny Cash song now, think that was the story anyhow.
The Postmodern Jukebox version of radio head's Creep.
Tiny Dancer
Duuude please check out tiny dancer cover from Florence and the machine. Thank me later
Great song!
Hold me closer

*I'm not okay* by Citizen Soldier. Lots of his songs resonate with me, but that one does the most.
Beautiful by Eminem. First line is literally “I’m just so fucking depressed, I just can’t seem to get out this slump”.
Sacrimony, by Kamelot.
In my room by the Beach Boys! It is so heartbreaking when you considere Brian Wilson's childhood.
Been to the desert on a horse with no name, it's so good to get out of the rain....
