The Smiths/Tear Jerker

This British alternative rock band has some pretty depressing songs.

""And you say no
 * Probably the biggest Smiths tearjerker ("I Know Its Over" aside) is the surprisingly uplifting and bittersweet "Reel Around The Fountain".
 * "Unhappy Birthday". Although, others might find it to be more humorous than anything else.

You don't have to feel this way

And I sing no

I'm gonna kill my...dog

May the line sag

May the line sag heavy and deep tonight...""


 * However, "I Know It's Over" and "Asleep" are Grade-A tearjerkers.
 * Nothing can get the depression rolling in like "Everyday is Like Sunday" for some people.
 * Also in Morrissey's solo work, two notable tracks are "Late Night, Maudlin Street" and "I Know It's Gonna Happen Someday".
 * Others can include "Still Ill" and "Reel Around the Fountain"
 * One might love to go... "Back To The Old House".
 * The acoustic version on Hatful of Hollow is particularly heartbreaking.
 * "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" takes the cake as well.
 * And then there are "Please Please Please, Let Me Get What I Want", "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me", and "Suffer Little Children".
 * As well as "Hand In Glove", "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore", "Well I Wonder", and "Half A Person".
