Having recently spent hour after hour singing 24 Hours and Passover, I'd choose either of those. The lyrics are just so desperate, particularly 24 Hours.
24 Hours and Sound of Music from the second Peel session...though I find them more desperate than depressing.
Hey, I've just become a member of the Republic!
You've just won a Phil Collins albums collection for this fact ![]()
I Remember Nothing,Auto-Suggestion and In a Lonely Place in my opinion.

Why would I want one of those? Or do you think I've never heard that 'witticism' before?
Decades is damn depressing; if I listen to it in the middle of the day I feel like going ot sleep right after, or go do something to cheer me up, like watch TV

My sister asked me once who died when I was listening to it in 1990 ![]()
In A Lonely Place.....Hooky's rehearsal tape.
Ok maybe that's a wee bit too morbid, so I'll go for probably my favourite JD track The Eternal.
Funky Cold Medina....oh, wrong artist ![]()
I'd say 24 Hours or The Eternal, both are pretty bleak lyrically ![]()
"The Eternal" has to be the most depressing JD song but also very beautiful. That piano coupled with Ian's slow singing is enough to give me goosebumps. "Decades" would be second perhaps tied with "Atmosphere". I love them slow JD songs. :D

Totally agree, 'The Eternal' is a song to slit your wrists and has me questioning the sanity of the writer....poor fellow.
Colony is the most utterly depressive JD song for me. Chainsaw guitar sound, repetative bass and drum loop, very harsh and bleak sound. At least 24 Hours, The Eternal and Decades all have melodies and some beautiful music.
