My favorite depressing song

The fact that Netflix has stripped Dark season 1's finale with A Quiet Life from the internet has gutted any impulse I had to tell all of you that you were wrong for not defaulting to A Quiet Life
This is also a distressingly good answer that will be distressingly discounted because it's tied to a mediocre videogame.

The entire album "What Would The Community Think" by Cat Power is brilliantly depressing. It's all very raw and intimate, and at this early stage in her career her voice was really powerful.
Her first 4 albums are all this kind of sad, bluesy alternative rock and they're all good, but this one is easily my favourite.

after giving it some more thought, i rescind my previous post and submit albert ayler's performance at john coltrane's funeral
ayler's spiritual style would influence coltrane's later output and is displayed here in perhaps its fullest form, an elegy capped off by ayler's vocals, wordless wails to encapsulate a sorrow that no words can describe. ayler himself would pass a few years later, under mysterious (some say violent) circumstances

The Devil and Daniel Johnston (2005)
This 2005 documentary film chronicles the life of Daniel Johnston, a manic-depressive genius singer/songwriter/artist, from childhood up to the present, with an emphasis on his mental illness and how it manifested itself in demonic self-obsession.

Anything by the Mountain Goats. My fave song of theirs is not really depressing per se but rather uplifting if you find yourself in a depressive mood. Lord knows I've listened to this song countless times.
More of their songs that get an honourable mention: No Children & I Am Going to Make it Through this Year

Will always repeat the same song, I got a whole playlist for when I'm depressed I'm listening to non-stop, but probably the worst of them all:
It's over, you don't need to tell me
I hope you're with someone who makes you feel safe in your sleep, then tonight
I won't kill myself trying to stay in your life
I've got no distance left to run

100% agreed. Love the Mountain Goats.
I remember when John said that people were using No Children for their wedding song, which I thought was... Interesting.
I just went with the first link, but I do like that video though.
I think I was in a big wave and this Elvis song was on for six hours as I stared at a wall.
