I like depressing metal from time to time, but sometimes the Death Growl gets old, and i like some clean vocals.

too bad i don't have any doom bands that only use clean vocals, or at least use clean most of the time.

i have 2 songs

"To Bid you Farewell" - Opeth

and

"For My Fallen Angle" - My Dying Bride

any ideas?

Anathema- Lost Control.  One of the most depressing things I've heard in a long time. 

also by Opeth- A Fair Judgement.

there's plenty out there, to be sure.

Warning - Watching From a Distance

One of the most powerful vocal performances I've ever heard.  Just hearing the climax to "Footprints" gets me every time.

 "Wasting Love" by Maiden. It's depressing because it sucks.

 Agreed.

Also (non-metal) Sound of silence by Simon and Garfunkle.  It gets me everytime.

Double-quoted for undeniability.

 Good choice. Fragile Dreams is pretty deppresing too. Anything on Alternative 4 or Judgement for that matter. Automobile

"The Chosen Pessimist" - In Flames

... hearing this while knowing it's by the same band that made The Jester Race is pretty damn depressing.
