I picked NIN from that list. If I picked 'other' like most people, I'd have to dig around for an hour to find the most depressing song in my collection to link. Nobody would comment on it, and then I would be depressed. :P

I picked NIN simply because of the last minute or so of Perfect Drug, which is depressing enough by itself, but when you watch that part in the video...as he leans over the piano with one hand playing and the other hand holding his head up...he just looks and sounds absolutely miserable. Amazing song. Probably one of the coolest videos ever too.

I'd say Waits has some of the greatest genuinely depressing music ever.

"I don't want to grow up" is really depressing and so damn true.

Depressing? I personally don't find Dave Matthews Band depressing at all.... in fact tthey are kinda uplifting to my ears...
