I was going to post this on Friday, but it seemed like it might work better on a Monday. Let's talk about totally depressing songs. I kind of love them.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I like upbeat songs too. I run to Kelly Clarkson and the Black Eyed Peas and one of my favorite songs from last year was Elbow's totally uplifting \"One Day Like This.\"\n\nBut, especially when I'm taking a solitary walk, I tend to go slow and mellow. And a lot of slow and mellow songs tend to be... a bummer. I like music that makes me FEEL something, I guess.\n\nI'm currently stuck on two by Ben Folds (listening to his a cappella CD reintroduced me):: \"Magic\" (about death) and \"Fred Jones, Part Two\" (about someone being downsized after working at a company for 25 years).\n\n\n\nI've listened to both songs on the way to work almost every day for the past few months. (Maybe I should send this blog link to my fellow Teen Vogue editors so they understand why I may be a little fragile in the a.m.!)\n\nWhat are your favorite sad songs?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
