i can't stop listening to this song (as covered by gary jules), Mad World. Its really evocative and sad sounding and that just gets me sometimes. (its the song in the gears of war commercial...i went ahead and found the whole thing)

It gets creepier and creepier... I just went and found this song because I saw the GOW commercial and needed to hear it again. Finch also does a pretty good acoustic cover of this song.

Cover songs are strange. Usually the only people that like the cover better are people that never heard the original. Here are some more songs that are good for sitting around and feeling sorry for yourself ;)

youtube is my internet jukebox at work...who'd a thunk that music videos sound as good as mp3s on mediocre earphones.

+1 for liking that song, after catching the GoW Trailer.

On another note Gears of War is FREAKING AWSOME, best Multiplayer game I've played in a LONG LONG LONG LONG time.
