street spirit (fade out) by radiohead

[thebeat]

Beeswing; Richard Thompson

Magdelene Laundries; Christy Moore (cover of a Joni Mitchell track}

...are 2 that stick in my mind.

Can't argue with that one.

How about:

Unfaithful Servant - The Band



What Light - Wilco



Fruit Tree - Nick Drake



...and anything by Tom Waits.

[bobbass4k]

Mogwai seem to have a gift for depression



Those are the most immediate ones of the top of me head.

Oh and this of course



Something a tad different:

'Yesterday is here' by Tom Waits (my band Rattlin Bone does a cover of this live). Beautiful

Call me a soppy old git, but I'd go for Bonnie Raitt's "I can't make you love me".

My theatrical side also has a soft spot for "Come what may" from the movie Moulin Rouge.

[Mykesbass]

Love a bit of melancholia - this one is great in that it finally reveals the song for what it truly was, not the wonderful but happy, bright sounding original by the Mamas & Papas:

[BTS_Spacebass]

The first 3/4 minutes just speak to me of sadness and loss. Cracking track

T

[bartelby]

[Spoombung]

Probably the saddest and most moving song I know of

[Spoombung]

Another one for all you Basschat folkies:

[4-string-thing]

Beeswing and pretty much all of the Henry The Human Fly album by Richard Thompson.

Almost anything by Nick Drake.

Spencer The Rover by John Martyn.

The False Bride by Sandy Denny.

Go Your Way by Anne Briggs.

[steve-soar]

[Deep Thought]

Atmosphere by Joy Division
The End by the Doors

Here's something different(might not be everyone's cup of tea). This is a song from my country.

I managed to find a clip on YouTube with an english subs for it.
