ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN - "The Killing Moon"

Every time I hear the opening bars of this song, my stomach falls just like the feeling you get while riding a roller coaster...



And it makes me feel sad.

DAVID BOWIE & NINE INCH NAILS - "I'm Afraid Of Americans"

A perennial favorite:



That last part is cool in how it breaks out of the first 9/10ths of the song and sorta drives the point home... I wonder if Bowie or Reznor wrote that part.

NICK CAVE - "Stagger Lee"

This is one of the most frighteningly grim songs I have ever heard, and his album "Murder Ballads" is chock full of grim weirdness:



HOLY SHIT, THAT'S IT FOR ME, NO MORE DRUNKEN NIGHTS AT SOME FUCKING ROADHOUSE.
