Off the top of my head, I think that it is a b-side of "For Tomorrow". Definitely not "Sunday Sunday" or "End of a Century".

I would go for New Dawn Fades by Joy Division - that to me is the saddest song ever. Other suggestions:-


Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor - Eels (in fact the whole of that album Electro Shock Blues)

I've Changed my Plea to Guilty (Morrissey)

Hurt - Johnny Cash version

Blue Pastures - James

God, these songs make me want to cry just typing them here!

I note Weed has already included one off Electro Shock Blues - and Dust Motes by James!!! Absolutely.

A few from my heartache playlist:

Bob Dylan - If you see her say hello
Townes Zan Zandt - Fare thee well, Miss Carousel
Arab Strap - Not quite a yes

You should really get spotify Fred!

http://open.spotify.com/user/stevenpike/playlist/7HKjxTC4Wy4ml7PK8O8c3m

Never took the time to properly find out how Spotify works. Do you pay monthly then stream songs each time you want to hear them? Do you use it to check songs out or does it mean you no longer have to buy music?

You can listen to anything (if it's on there) for free and create your own playlists, but you have to put up frequent ads that you can't skip unless you upgrade and pay.

The best is when you get a condom ad in the middle of a Pulp playlist.

I thought it was a 48 hour unlimited trial then you have to start paying. It's £4.99 a month for PC use only or £9.99 a month for PC/mobile phone use. If anything, the amount of albums I've bought has gone up since having it.

I know the app for the phone is 48 hour, but if you download it on your computer you can have it for free like Anet said and then you just get intermittent annoying ads in the middle of albums and playlists. Or you can pay and you get no ads

I pay for the £10 monthly Spotify as I'm allowed to listen to music at work. Like Ian says, I've probably bought more albums rather than less since having it. I've discovered so much new and old music. It has pretty much everyone's back catalogues with a few big exceptions like Beatles and Pink Floyd.

The free version obviously isn't as good but no worse than listening to commercial radio.

Nothing, and I mean nothing, is more mournful than the two most mournful albums of all time; In The Wee Small Hours and Only The Lonely by Frank Sinatra. Also, and I know you hate his voice, but The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds plumbs the depths.

Did I say I hate his voice? (yeah I might of done) Lets just say there's other voices I like better. He's got an ok voice if he doesn't let rip.

You should really enjoy, if that's the right word, The Boatman's Call.

But I did advise you to stay away from Joy Division, so I'm not all bad.

I pay a tenner a month for spotify so I can have it on my ayePhone. It's worth every penny. I use it in the car & when out & about, listening to just about anything I fancy at any given time.

Also, on the free version you can only listen to a track about 5 times before they stop you from playing it. Really annoying when you're just getting into a song.
