Nobody died or broke up with me, and my pet rock most definitely doesn't have a fever, but here are bunch of cheerless songs that aren't too sappy.

tracklist

1 CocoRosie : By Your Side
I don't believe the lyrics were meant to be depressing, but the tone definitely is which makes the entire song sad.

2 Regina Spektor : Fidelity (Blockhead Remix)
The original Fidelity song is quite up beat, but the remix by Blockhead has a rather sad sound to it. You can listen to it here:

4 Terry Jacks : Seasons in the Sun

7 Johnny Cash : Would You Lay With Me (In a Field of Stone)
This song makes you hope you have someone when you are 70 years old.

This song will ruin any happy mood. I can put this on and start to tear up after the first few lines.

The man is missed terribly.

10 Vincent Gallo : Honey Bunny
One day I will touch Vincent Gallo. He's such a nut, that guy, but he does it well.

The lyrics are pretty cheesey, but you can tell that the man loves his lady.

12 Des'ree : Kissing You
For all of the hopeless romantics. This song is somehow an inspiration and it went perfectly with Romeo & Juliet. Pay more attention to the movie next time it's on TV.

Good song, good song.
