Finally, heres the book that explores (and pokes fun at) 52 of the most heart-wrenching and earsplitting songs of all time and explains the reasons we continue to listen to them. Complete with a ranked countdown of doom and wonderfully dreary black-and-white line drawings throughout, <i>I Hate Myself and Want to Die</i> is a must-have compilation of melodic misery. Tom Reynolds' Most Depressing Songs include: "Goodbye to Love" by the Carpenters; "My Immortal" by Evanescence; "The Rose" by Bette Midler; "Mandy" by Barry Manilow; "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins; "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler; "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails. 683717 2005 I Hate Myself and Want to Die: The 52 Most Depressing Songs You've Ever Heard total:137|5:34|4:41|3:39|2:17|1:6| 137 491 290 48 697399 140130835X 9781401308353 134 46 3.58 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177362203m/697399.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/697399.I_Hate_Myself_and_Want_to_Die_The_52_Most_Depressing_Songs_You_ve_Ever_Heard 5 1 false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Jan 17 09:42:10 -0800 2008 Thu May 01 07:55:31 -0700 2008 more...]]> 697399 140130835X 9781401308353 134 46 3.58 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177362203m/697399.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/697399.I_Hate_Myself_and_Want_to_Die_The_52_Most_Depressing_Songs_You_ve_Ever_Heard 2 1 false Sat Apr 28 19:36:03 -0700 2007 Sat Apr 28 19:40:55 -0700 2007 more...]]> 697399 140130835X 9781401308353 134 46 3.58 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177362203m/697399.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/697399.I_Hate_Myself_and_Want_to_Die_The_52_Most_Depressing_Songs_You_ve_Ever_Heard 4 1 false Fri Jun 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 04:51:15 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 12 17:02:22 -0700 2009 more...]]> 697399 140130835X 9781401308353 134 46 3.58 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177362203m/697399.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/697399.I_Hate_Myself_and_Want_to_Die_The_52_Most_Depressing_Songs_You_ve_Ever_Heard 3 3 false Wed Oct 07 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 02 23:28:25 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 11 09:39:35 -0700 2009
