I'm wondering if anyone can suggest some simple songs with maybe just strings and really good vocals that help when you feel depressed. |

how about stringed instruments? download some 70s neil young songs, especially off harvest (and if you like it, buy that amazing album) |

Syd Barrets Opal is really nice, especially Word Song. Or any Nick Drake, like black eyed dog... Jeff Buckley is sublime on Grace... Of course these people killed themselves or drove themselves insane. Stick to Morresey...he only drove himself inane |

hmm squarepusher's 'my sound' is the one that always helps me... brian eno's 'always returning' is another nice, simple song with that sort of mood.. stars of the lid's 'requiem for dying mothers part1' is also really simple (minimalistic even) but has strings and is really beautiful...in a sad way and of course..radiohead has tons...how to disappear completely, street spirit, motion picture soundtrack, pyramid song, kinetic, etc... bjork's got some nice ones too..try joga.. or if your looking for something more uplifting...try 'undo' or 'its not up to you' |

Some (read: SOME) of the Aphex Twin stuff like Domino are errie and calm. However, I listed to it after my grandma's funeral and it was really sad~~~ |

Blackbird, Julia, Noweigan Wood, all by, you guessed it, the Beatles. And I agree, Syd Barrett's solo stuff is nice and charmingly simple. Unlike that Gilmour fella... |

Ethereal Choir by Ceri JC. Very relaxing with a tint of melancholy. Sadly it's not on my MP3.com site... |

hmm.. let's say Broadcast, and Blonde Redhead (but this one is not very calm all along) |
