Dan Hill is the name of the singer. Dan Hill made Air Supply sound like Robert Johnson. [Edited 3/18/05 17:30pm] | |

'candyshop' by 50cent is depressing, but i don't think that's the kind of depressing you mean.  | |

Lennon's Plastic Ono Band has to be one of the great downer albums of all time - I don't know if I'd call it depressing, but it is relentlessly, painfully bleak.
And how is it possible that no one's mentioned Joy Division yet? | |

Sade - Immigrant Marianne Faithfull - Working Class Hero George Michael - One More Try Sheryl Crow - Riverwide Michael Jackson - She's Out Of My Life Luther Vandross - Dance With My Father Everything But The Girl - No Difference Madonna - Time Stood Still | |

(I think)Bruce Springstiens Streets of Philidelphia. Haters travel in packs and they are offended or threatened by klhk, haters express intense hostility toward the subject of hate. Haters are annoyed and roll thier eyes when klhk is paid a compliment. ask yourself, are u a hater? | |

Joy Division. Particularly the Closer album. You don't get much more grim than "24 Hours", "The Eternal" and "Decades". | |

bratchildsfriend said: Lou Reed ~ Sad Song Every time some magazine puts a list of dark or depressing albums together (like this one http://www.mtv.com/news/a...tory.jhtml ) Lou Reed's Berlin is always at or near the top. I've never been able to see this album as something to be taken seriously - it's so bombastic, so forcefully gloomy that I almost think of it as a comedy album. That moment when the children start screaming towards the end of "the kids" is almost as absurd as a Twisted Sister video. I still love it, mind you - I just cannot think of it as a depressing album.

Oops, I forgot to mention The Final Cut and The Gunner's Dream by Pink Floyd. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Leonard Cohen
and Kurt Cobain (mostly In Utero and the early stuff) The kings of pain, depression and fucked-upness. | |

That new song called Daughters. Haters travel in packs and they are offended or threatened by klhk, haters express intense hostility toward the subject of hate. Haters are annoyed and roll thier eyes when klhk is paid a compliment. ask yourself, are u a hater? | |

Case said: "Be My Wife"--David Bowie
I always get such a weird vibe from that song and even moreso the video. It's so tragic and defeated yet so mocking at the same time. [Edited 3/19/05 9:07am] | |
