That Hanson song is about how very depressing it must be to be in your 30s.

I remember people thinking Pumped Up Kicks was about the Westroads mall shooting in Omaha that happened in '07 because of the lyrics, the kid who shot up the mall was named Robert. Likely a coincidence but still kind of a spooky one.

Same but specifically upbeat ska songs about how life sucks and we should probably just kill ourselves.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

Funny(to me) that the one song with the slow, sober tone is the optimistic one(Happy)

Friend or Foe by The Forces of Evil is easily the most negative, nihilistic album I have ever heard but the music just sounds so happy.

I figured.

Granted they also wrote Don't Start a Band which, while nihilistic, is the most honest and true song ever written.

Why yes I do enjoy Reel Big Fish and also have crippling depression, why do you ask?

Most of The Cardigans songs are about either suicidal depression or horribly abusive relationships, including Lovefool.

Nina Persson covered a fairly depressing country song for a really depressing movie, too.

People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.
Operator probably isn't any more or less sad than it appears on face value but you would probably need to explain what an operator is to a youth so that's kind of a bummer.

naw, you love it you little ho-bot :roboluv:

The excellent "Make me smile (come up and see me)" is a wonderful jolly, cheerful tune and I've often seen it used in adverts as such, but it's all about a bad band breakup and the lyrics are deeply bitter and scathing.
