I especially like how the “rain falling down” metaphor comes back when he’s going off and he says, “My clothes are all wet, tell me!”

For any mundane depression, (you're gonna laugh, they're all gonna laugh at me) it's OK to laugh at this, believe it or not my go to song is "On a Clear Day" Yes that song from the musical of the same name. Stupid, I know - but it does the trick. For seasonal depression, my go to is "Sleigh Ride." How can you feel blue when you're balls are bouncing on a sleigh over the snowy hills and through the woods?

The Burgundian lullaby perhaps

Have been too depressed for too many decades. Lost the ability to enjoy music. Miss it, but anytime I try it feels contrived and I hear people from my past deriding my selections for various reasons.

Magnolia Electric Co - The Dark Don’t Hide It or Just Be Simple

Mogwai - Helicon 2

Broken Social Scene - Lovers Spit

There is a small indie band called Kabir Cafe, whose songs are inspired by a 14th-15th century poet- philosopher called Kabir. Those are some amazing songs to hear to.

Liquor Bottle by Herbal T. Has a nice faux-upbeat rhythm with jazzy kinda beats, but lyrics.are dark. Definitely helps me keep a sane face on the dark days:

And that's why / I keep a

A liquor bottle in the freezer ♪

In case I gotta take it out ♫

Mix me a drink

To help me

Forget all the things

In my life that I worry about ♪ ♫

steiner's theme from ff9

I have several actually:

• As mentioned earlier: Portishead - Threads. Actually, the whole album is perfect for a certain desolate mood.
• The God Machine - Picture of a Bleeding Boy
• The Cure - End
• Joy Division - Komakino
• Nine Inch Nails - The Wretched

Y'all are in the mood for music when you're depressed?

TV On The Radio - Young Liars. The entire EP, or just the single with the same name from it, depending on my mood.

The single

The whole EP

• Nine Inch Nails - Hurt
• Johnny Cash - Hurt
• Radiohead - Street Spirit
• New Order - True Faith

Every New Year's i play the same two songs around midnight: This Year by The Mountain Goats and The Ice of Boston by The Dismemberment Plan. Both help me get through those turn of the year moods.

Yoko Kanno and Seat Belts - Blue

Surrounded by Richard Buckner

You just won't lie down. Even closing your eyes, you can't let it go, Surrounded inside. Leave it alone. You don't get it back Undoing the scenes you can't explain, Whatever you dream That you've buried away. It seems like you're there as someone removed And left in their place with nothing to do. Bound to the switch. Railing again at the thought of the fight For well-earned dissent Undeserved at the time. As you've been shown, the motion has gone A shade of the night, only leading you on.

Eye of the Tiger

Saddy Daddy-O by Artimus Wolz, which is also a bop

Whipping boy - we don't need nobody else

For any mundane depression, (you're gonna laugh, they're all gonna laugh at me) it's OK to laugh at this, believe it or not my go to song is "On a Clear Day" Yes that song from the musical of the same name. Stupid, I know - but it does the trick. For seasonal depression, my go to is "Sleigh Ride." How can you feel blue when you're balls are bouncing on a sleigh over the snowy hills and through the woods?

Giving up by Corbin and sodus cementeries

Bad Life by Sigrid+Bring Me The Horizon. Very on-the-nose but it's a damn good song.

808 OG trap beats

Bird is Bored of Flying, by Mastersystem, is the best soundtrack for falling into a depressive haze. Death Dream and Loneliness and the Scream by Frightened Rabbit, who shares the lead singer above, are also incredible. Music can keep the void from growing, and let you sort of float atop it.

Wildfires by State Faults

I'm a big music snob, and I'm in my forties, but Decompression Period by Papa Roach hit me really hard the first time I heard it, and it's always one I go back to. I've never had a bad breakup or anything, but it really captures the feeling for me.

Orchid Mantis - Flashbulb Memory

I've got a whole fucking playlist for real sadboy hours on rainy drives home where I want to get lost in the back of my mind and it's like 50% this band.
