"Gabriel"-Lamb-Another great one.
"Heartbeats"-Jose Gonzalez-cover version-really sweet.
"Schindlers List Theme"-John Williams-good for classical lovers.
"My December"-Linkin Park-How To Depress Yourself At Christmas :)
"Moonlight Sonata"-Beethoven-the worlds most amazing and simply perfect piano piece.
"Wish"-The Cure....basically anything by them is enough to want to grab a large bottle of something.

The most sad/depressive song I've ever heard is "Suicidal Dream" by Silverchair. If you hear it, you won't feel like you're in such a bad position.

"Lucky" by Radiohead, "Disarm" by the Smashing Pumpkins, and "Mad World" by Gary Jules and Michael Andrews (the song played at the end of Donnie Darko). Please download or listen to those songs some other way as soon as you can, because I guarantee that after listening to them you will pick my answer as the best.
