I posted this one awhile ago, its a very emotional song and one of dozen favorites of mine from VNV Nation.

I love it, and the fact i have a very eclectic,diverse and obscure interest in music and i don't have much interest in the force fed crap that most people like, empty meaningless music is not an escape, music should be an escape from reality much like watching a Sci-Fi/fantasy movie.

See, its not depressing to me..its quite soothing, now what i hear on the radio and see on tv and commercials..thats depressing.

I really wanted to post Natalie Merchant's "The Living" which is a very powerful song, but I couldn't find it.

Here's another one "River," by her that I think is fitting:

All I could find close to "The Living" was one with an embedded "Storry of Anne Boleyn" version which isn't as good.

For me it's Mad World by Gary Jules from Donnie Darko. One of my favorite films.

I got goosebumps the first time I heard this song, and I still do each time I hear it.

Always loved this song, and HIM did a decent cover.
