Damien Rice/Enya type feeling songs...

Does anyone know any songs which have a similar feel to them as the following, because I am desperate for sad, frustrated melancholy songs, but I can't find a texture I like to match the following;

Damien Rice; 'The Blowers Daughter', 'Cannonball', 'Delicate'
Enya; 'Storms in Africa' 'Exile'
Nick Drake; 'Horn' 'River Man'
Tom Mcrae; 'Ghost of a shark'
Clarkesville; 'Reprise'

Any ideas? I feel like sad music now it's autumn. My Kinks stage is over and the crying starts!

Firstly, snap those Enya and Damien Rice discs in half. Scrape the sharp edges of their broken shards against your cheek in pennance for giving the likes of Enya any of your hard-earned money. Feel ashamed. Put on a hair shirt.

Secondly, seek ye THIS MORTAL COIL and COCTEAU TWINS and, fuck it, why not pick up The Spirit of Eden by Talk Talk. Thank me later.

Alex not EVERYONE is able to snap a CD in half when they're boiling with fury...

Thanks Alex, but I bought neither Album. One's my dad's and the other was a present. And all the others are single's put a minidisc by an ex-girlfriend. (Except for Drake, who I worship)
