What song makes you feel melancholic ?, page 1

I bet everyone has had that feeling of melancholia at some point. you know, that non-specific down feeling.

Do you have any song to couple yours with ?

mine's is, non-coincidentally, Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill

Pretty much anything by Kings of Convenience.

This song reminds me of the biggest mistake I ever made in my life.

I would have to say Lights by Journey.......

100 Years... for sure. I wish I'd known then what I know now. How quickly the seasons of our life pass with such disregard by us.

You may recall Marvin Gaye? He was murdered by his father, a fundamentalist Christian preacher

Good god... how about bawl like a baby and not just melancholia..




BLUBBERING NOW!~!!!!

You want ones to make you cry?








Youth is wasted on the young. By the time you realize what you had it is irretrievably gone.

Oh my gosh, dude. I would have mentioned "The Hollies" (He Ain't Heavy) too but that song goes past melancholia for me. That's straight up the saddest song in the world, especially if you have brothers.

I remember, growing up as a late 80's/early 90's kid seeing this public awareness commercial about a young mans' brother who has cancer. I didn't know why his brother was sick at the time, but the power and emotion of the song+commercial would make me cry everytime. I was like 6 or 7.

edit: Bolding the word "cry" doesn't quite explain just how big 'a lump would swell in my throat. It hurt so bad I could only cry otherwise I would have probably died on the spot.

I hear ya. You want to talk about gut wrenching sad: my husband is a gulf war combat vet.. Marine. One of his buddies was killed and we went to the funeral. They played this when they were carrying his casket from the parlor to the car. He Aint Heavy, He's My Brother... Gahhhh!!!!

I find that the most melancholic music to me is that which is hauntingly beautiful....
deep instrumentals without words.

It doesn't guide you into any state of being by words alone, but rather, opens you up to dwelling on something that's very personal to you instead...
