Depressing music.

Hah! Always count on Gira. That said, personally I'd have picked:

Where better to find depressing music than in classical music adapted to opera singers?

 

[Truly-A-Lie]

Mainly the lines "sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky, a human being that was given to fly" and "the love he recieves is the love that he didn't save," (I think that's what he says) and what is said during the chorus.
I'm not saying that your wrong, but from that my personal interperation of the song is it seems something like a person close to the man of the song dies and he feels he could have prevented it, and as he tries to spread good across the world as a sort of way to atone he's stabbed by someone and dies, hence the lines "spot in the sky" and "he's flying" possibly symbolising him dying and going to heaven, and now he can no longer directly make the world better because he's now just a 'human being Given To Fly'.
Basically a man does good deeds, is killed because of it, and is ultimately forgotten.

It's probably not the 'correct' interperation, but it's a great song regardless.

That's really interesting. The Heaven idea never occurred to me. And the good thing about music is that until the lyricist says so there isn't a correct interpretation, and knowing Eddie Vedder he'd never say anything because he wants us all to interpret it in our own ways.
The lyric is "the love he receives is the love that is saved", but that still works when taking the Heaven aspect into it.

Coheed have a habit of making songs with depressing lyrics sound quite upbeat

I think the prime example would be Three Evils.

A lovely song about torture and suicide Gravemakers and Gunslingers is another good example.

"Baby be my lover, don't want to pull that trigger." Also I'm pretty sure it's the only Coheed song to say ************.

In Three Evils when he says pull the trigger/the nightmare stops, a robot is being tortured in the comics says the same thing.

Yea sizer gets captured tortured and chopped up in three evils

Then Claudio finds him in Godder Damm and fixes him up. He takes him to fight the Red Army and that's where I left off I'm a little behind on Amory Wars. I'm glad you know about this because every time I try to talk about it I always get questioning stares.

Im a bit behind too ive read SSTB but keeping secrets of silent earth has only recently been released in the uk so im going to wait until theyre compiled together before i buy

Even though it doesn't sound like it, if you really listen to the lyrics it's quite depressing.

Oh yeah, totally. I find Time Consumer to be pretty sad too.

This is probably the most depressing song I've ever stumbled across, so let's go with this.

Yeah, the beauty of music I suppose.

Thanks for replying to my post by the way.

Spoiler: Tool - Pushit

You find Pushit depressing? I'm guessing you haven't heard Right in Two, look it up.

And about the anime music, you do know what site you're on right...?

I have bought all Tool's albums, so no I've heard it a lot of times. I still find Pushit a lot more depressing
