Help me find a depressing song.

[Matthew Wilson]

Hey Escapers,
Me and a group of friends are doing an amatuer film and during the opening credits we want to show a character getting attacked, the problem is we want a sad song to go along with it but we can't think of one. We want something along the lines of Muse's Falling Down or Emily Barker's Nostalgia - links to both songs below - and while we really like Nostalgia we want to see if there's anything better. And before you all pick it we did consider Johnny Cash's Hurt but it didn't fit the scene, thanks.

Nostalgia - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w098rz-rdiQ

[Mr Fatherland]

Victim or So Far Away by Avenged Sevenfold. Fade to Black by Metallica (About Suicide). Snuff by Slipknot (Not what you think)and maybe the Schindler's List music. (Wrong context obviously but most moving piece I know.)

Sorry, about the lack of links.

I have heard from QI that this song is so depressing a tramp was whistling it, when a business man walked past, gave the tramp all his stuff then jumped off the bridge.

Agreed. This is the traditional Hungarian version dubbed the "Hungarian Suicide Song".

Anymore info you can give aside from being attacked ?

I didn't want to bring it up because it might upset some people. Basically the opening shows a girl getting raped, the whole thing's in slo-mo and we don't show anything explicit but it's still an uncomfertable scene.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

Yeah, Alice in Chains have a lot of depressing songs.

Here's something different anyway.

In that case this might be "appropriate"

Seriously, it's the most depressing/and or creepy music ever.
