The Smiths - Girlfriend In a Come
The Smiths - Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now

If you're American/ under 25 I doubt You'll have heard of The Smiths, but they were so very, very depressed, although I always thought there was some irony in their songs..

As for Radiohead, Karma Police is a great song, and not nearly as sad as "No Suprises" (listen to the lyrics).

The songs/ music that tends to make most people emotional, is nothing new - listen to some of the sadder pieces of classical music; you'll find it's the best for getting tears.

One last thing:when I saw the topic name this joke sprung straight to mind
How many Emo Kids does it take to change a lightbulb?
None, they prefer to sit in the dark.

aha.

I'm only 22, but I know who The Smiths' are. And I can honestly say that I don't care for them or Morrissey (the Smiths' singer) anymore. You know that you complain a lot when Robert Smith from The Cure says you're a whiny bitch

Haha, too true.

As for the age thing, I'm just guessing, as I myself am only 15, but I now they're not a terrifically mainstream or new band, so I just thought that not that many people would have heard of 'em.

Anyone else heard fitter happier by radiohead? Not depressing as such...just...cool.
