i kinda have the blues today (cuz i guess i realized i have to leave London soon) but also looking forward to my new life back at home.

but what do you guys listen to when you got the blues?

lately i have been listening to a lot of Sting, Everything But The Girl and even Nina Simone.

youve got the blues coz your leaving that london?fucking hell man you should be jumping for joy!

but the best blues song in the world..one that will break your heart into 9 pieces...MARTHA by tom waits ,,,and i remember quiet evenings trembling close to you... now then dry your eyes and get yourself out of that london afore you become like them...HURRY!

when I'm in the dumps, I listen to Disintgeration by The Cure or just about anything from The Smiths


but, I think EBTG is fitting as well!

Tom Waits!

I'd also listen to Johnsburg, Illinois. So beautiful. Or Grapefruit Moon.

Damn i got to listen to some Tom Waits right now.

When I feel down I listen to anything by Depeche Mode...Need I say more? lol

Them.

Whenever I got the blues.. PM Dawn is gonna be playin.. its not considered blues, but the melody and lyrics go deep.. deeper than most music I own.. new levels.

Cinister Cee "Losin' My Best Friend"

Try Sade or David Gray - They always do it for me!

Cheer Up!

I listen to The Smiths too, btw

i have mix discs especially for those days. usually the peeps who show up the most on those discs are natalie merchant, tom waits, tracy chapman, tori amos, sinead o'conner, cat stevens.

If you wanna wallow in it, I recommend MeShell's "Bitter" - might help you purge some of that

the music to listen to when you got the blues is the blues... that's what they call that shit the blues, muthafucka...
