What songs have that sweet melancholy feeling where the song's sadness somehow comforts you when you're blue?
Flaming Lips -- Waiting for a Superman
Joni Mitchell -- River
Nina Simone -- Suzanne
Johnny Cash -- The Long Black Veil
Tom Waits -- Time, Hold On
Tindersticks -- Until the Morning Comes
Tori Amos -- Silent All These Years
Samuel Barber -- Adagio For Strings
And my favorite:
Landslide -- Fleetwood Mac (live)

There's quite a few, but off the top of my head:
The man with the child in his eyes- Kate Bush
Pantomime Horse- Suede
Lovely Head- Goldfrapp
Linger- Cranberries
Sing for absolution- Muse
Last Goodbye- Jeff Buckley
The Tourist- Radiohead
Art Decade- David Bowie
Walking Back to you- Foo Fighters
That joke isn't funny anymore- Smiths
Any of the above are good for a blub along to. If you want a whole album of satisfied melancholy Disintigration by the Cure is just the ticket.
