Lots of songs, that were okay before have become very depressing since Sept. 11:
The Eagles - New York Minute ("In a New York Minute, everything can change...In a New York Minute, things can look so strange...")
Those lyrics have been haunting me since then.
Neil Diamond - September Morning - Yeah, the song itself isn't depressing, but the title alone gets to me.
R.E.M. - Its the End Of the World - 'nuff said on that one
There is one song that should get more exposure due to its total awesomeness. They Might Be Giants - New York City. They did it in concert here in BR a few weeks ago. The lyrics are so wonderful: "Everyone is my friend, in New York City, and everything is so beautiful when you're young and pretty. The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see, but the best thing about New York City is you and me"
They closed with that song. A great tribute from two guys from NYC.
