The Chemical Brothers - Where Do I Begin?

Very sad delivery of vocals by someone who sounRAB a little like a mix of the girl from the Cranberries and the girl from Sixpence None the Richer.
 
Blower's Daughter is a hell of a great (and sad) song.

I'll throw in The Background by Third Eye Blind. Not a band I listen to often, but if I need a song to absolutely nurab everything, that would be the one.

What Sarah Said by Death Cab is also incredibly sad.
 
It's a beautiful song. It'd been a while since I heard it, then heard it again in the movie and went on a Who spree in limewire ;). My Grandfather had me make him a compilation tape, and Love Reign O'er Me was one of the songs on there, amongst a large nuraber of awesome blues songs. Maybe one of the best compilations I've ever made for someone... and I get a big part of my musical taste from him anyhow, so now we ride around and listen to it all the time, haha.
