The song "Angles" by Dan Le Sac vs. Scroobius Pip really got me the first time I listened to it. Especially the 4th verse from the kid's perspective.
"My name’s Billy. I’ve been beaten since I was three, Mum died when I was born and Dad takes it out on me. He ain’t a bad man, He just gets drunk and feels alone, I tend to go for walks and hope he’s asleep when I get home. Don’t like to talk about it though. As I said, it ain’t his fault, it only happens when he’s drunk as a last resort. Tried to get him a gift, to show my support, but had no money and I stole and I guess I got caught. At times like that, I tend to switch of my mind, stare blankly into space and let what happens unwind. I seemed to anger this guard, he put his hands around my neck, he said it’s time for me to learn some manners and respect. It hurt. I’ve had worse before, it made me realise life is just a series of wars. I went straight home that day and locked the bathroom door. Took a blade to both wrists, they won’t hurt me no more." Really depressing song that has a very good meaning behind. |

I cant help but tear up when listening to Asleep by the Smiths, it's just so depressing and that's saying something for a Smiths song. Also Visions of Johanna by Bob Dylan not because its sad but because its so lyrically beautiful.
