Songs to be miserable to?

[therapymumsy]

Am having a wallow in it day which will be followed by a get on with it day ...
So today I'm mostly listening to Dr Hooks "I don't want to be alone tonight" and tomorrow will start the day with Whitneys "it's not right but it's okay"
Your inputt into my music choices much appreciated ta x

Last night I dreamt
That somebody loved me
No hope, but no harm
Just another false alarm

Any of Leonard Cohen's early songs.

Everybody Hurts - REM

In fact the whole Automatic for the People album.

ColdplAy. ..mainly because it's whiney shit though

My DH's playlists. All of it. The Wedding Present sticks in my mind as being especially tortuous, but DH only seems to like music if it's angsty indie bollocks.

When I was splitting with Ex-H I spent a lot of time listening to KD Lang. I love her, but she does encourage misery.

Ooh Beverley Craven.

'Promise me, you'll wait for me,
Cos I'll be saving all my love for you
And I'll be home soon
Promise me you'll wait for me
I need to know you feel the same way too
I'll be home, I'll be home soon'

She was on Come Dine With Me singing for the guests - mates with one of the contestants apparently

I'll always love you
Bedshape - Keane

There are the 2 I have in mind at the moment but will come back..I used to listen a lots of misery song when I was a teen, making myself miserable was a leisure !

automatic for the people
Talk talk

Ooh thank you for your suggestions .... Am currently listening to Elvis Costello Good year for the roses..... Repeatedly

Allll by myyyyseeeelf.....don't wanna be all butt myyseeeeelf.... Anymore.

Of course it HAS to be done in the style of Bridget Jones with full on air drumming

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony, Lucky Man (in fact almost anything of theirs)
Alanis Morissette - you Oughta Know (possibly more bitter than sad)
Pink Floyd - The Wall

I Know It's Over by the Smiths.

With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms.

ARGH.

The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkle- sad but inspiring

Any Joy Division. For a mood change listen to Dr Hook again - You make my Pants want to get up and Dance. A classic..
Hassled, I think I am quite fancying your DH! Used to love the Wedding Present and lost of other indie jangly guitar stuff like that. :)

Desperado- The Eagles
All at Once-Whitney
What About Love-Heart
The Diary Song- Bread

And all of Adele,obviously.

Fire and Rain- James Taylor
Diamonds and Rust-Joan Baez
Epitaph- King Crimson

"Wild Horses" by Natasha Bedingfield
"Isobel" and "My Lover's Gone" by Dido
Keane's Album: "Hopes and Fears"
Most stuff by the Fleet Foxes if you actually sit and listen to the lyrics.

Tracey Thorn - Plain Sailing. In fact whole album - A Distant Shore. Epic.

ooooooooooo joy div and tracey thorn on same thread

For the sheer can't-get-it-back nostalgia thing - Don Henley, The Boys Of Summer

Sloe Gin Joe Bonamassa

Black Pearl Jam
