Im still looking for the perfect Melancholy compilation...

Lets see what can be brought fourth now.

So far, my top three songs as an example of what I'm looking for....

In no particular order.

Might I suggest anything done by Sigur Ros? That seems to be really haunting and melancholy in a great way...

Oh, Gee!!

+1 Very good song, TD. I was fortunate to catch Radiohead at the Hollywood Bowl...it has to be the best concert I have ever been to.

Also, Explosions in the Sky and Russian Circles are really good at being haunting.

I just go to youtube, copy the numbers and letters after the = Paste it like you are pasting a image on here (the yellow icon) and change the word "img" in both things to youtube.

enter the numbers here (add the 'e' to spell youtube right)

Lost Highway soundtrack is pretty damn good. One of my favorite soundtracks.
