Personally, Dust in the Wind by Kansas. For sentimental reasons.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOdo7dhvSwg


My mom played guitar, and this is one song in particular that she would play and sing often. She died when I was 13, and for years after her death, whenever I heard this song it would bring me to tears. It's gotten better over the years, but I'm still deeply affected whenever I hear it.

lol here's the right link. I'm just going to leave that Primus one in there haha

The first song from Schubert's Winterreise always depresses the fuck out of me (in a good way):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3JVZZ-INyM


"Good Night":

"I came here a stranger,
As a stranger I depart.
May favored me
With many a bunch of flowers.
The girl spoke of love,
Her mother even of marriage -
Now the world is so gloomy,
The road shrouded in snow.
I cannot choose the time
To begin my journey,
Must find my own way
In this darkness.
A shadow of the moon travels
With me as my companion,
And upon the white fields
I seek the deer's track.
Why should I stay here any longer
So that people can drive me away?
Let stray dogs howl
In front of their master's house;
Love loves to wander -
God made it that way -
From one to the other,
My dearest, good night!
I don't want to disturb your dreaming,
It would be a shame to wake you.
You won't hear my step,
Softly, softly the door closes!
I write in passing
On your gate: Good night,
So that you may see
That I thought of you."

I know the feeling. Sometimes music is the only thing that can help because can't concentrate on video games and can't follow a movie/TV show.
Here are some downer songs I'll listen to when I'm suffering from anxiety/depression:

Stabbing Westward - So Wrong. This band is always good for any downer songs. Isolation, loneliness, heartbreak, you name it. This one in particular is about coping with being heartbroken and not being able to get over someone you care about. Their first 3 albums, Ungod, wither blister burn and peel, and Darkest Days are all top of my list when feeling down
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HItZGSQoRTk


T.A.T.U - Show me Love. Song about being clingy and overly attached. I own the 10th anniversary album and there's an even more mellow version of this song on it. Their second album also have very sad music too. I'd recommend both of them. It kinda makes sense that a Russian group would have depressing music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0j4SoOkc0w


Alone - The Dreaming. The lead singer of Stabbing Westward formed this band later. I'd put it close to Stabbing Westward.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvIHBlVKGd4


I'll put one Japanese song from an anime too, because it's helped me when feeling sad. "Come" by Namie Amuro. Mellow, dramatic-sounding song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tim5mhhJr5Y


I can probably post more later too if you want.

Had a friend who was in Kosovo during the war and he hated that song. He didn't care about the album "No Boundaries: A Benefit for the Kosovar Refugees" but that particular song use to set him off. Something along the lines of "what the fuck does well off American couple with the girl dying in a crash have to do with Kosovo?

The River by Springsteen

I'm not typically a big fan of his but that's a great and really depressing song.

Queen-39

Song about a group of scientists who leave their loved ones forever in order to time travel on what they know to be a one way trip.

Sublime-Pool Shark
Bradley essentially foreshadows his own eventual death with this song
