Who sings the most depressing songs??

[Hilary]

Music feeds the soul and sometimes you need a bit of ying to go with the yang. I can't think of anything depressing but there's plenty that break my heart when I listen. This one never fails to make me cry, because it's so beautiful and so tragic . . . enjoy!

0.39 and I'm welling up . . . oh yeah and Paul Weller's in it
