However, when played at the end of Titanic, I'm a goddamn blubbering crybaby because I'll be damned if it's not the saddest song in the world. Lavender Town, sure it's spoop, but I don't get suicidal thoughts hearing it, as others have claimed. Maybe I'm just heartless, but yea, I apparently need some context to feel saddened or depressed by a song.
context can add alot to a song. I kind of feel the same way about the ending theme to The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya although that's probably more to do that I'm a sucker for that franchise then anything
