I'm feeling pretty down at the moment; for no particular reason, really. So here are some sad songs. Or at least some songs that won't interfere with my mood, too much.

Also, the lyrics in my sad mixes don't always fit the mood. I mostly listen for the music when I get in these kind of moods.

TEAM 97 -- Third Place
Long before being knocked up with Eddie Murphy's illegitimate child, Scary Spice was on top of the world. Now, she's nothing but washed up. It's kind of sad, really. Just by scoring third place in this contest, you've got infinitely more street cred than Scary. Congrats!

There are some gems in here. I remember reading about the Drive-By Truckers in an editorial written by none other than the great Stephen King (?).
