** "Dishes" from "This Is Hardcore", a melancholy-sounding song with some downright bleak lyrics about giving up your dreams and resigning yourself to a mundane, dull routine all while feeling like you should be happy, but instead you feel empty inside. It's pretty heartbreaking.
** "TV Movie", also from "This Is Hardcore". Another melancholy song, but this time a breakup song with some of the most bleak, broken-sounding lyrics you've ever heard.

*** The whole song qualifies really. It's their most famous song for a reason.
** The choruses and ending of "F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E".
** "Do You Remember The First Time?". All of it, but especially the when the first chorus kicks off and during the bridge buildup to the last few choruses.
** The colossal, bonkers, nine minute, spoken-word epic that is "Deep Fried In Kelvin".

** "Weeds"
** "Weeds"
** The very end of "F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E", when the music cuts out leaving a high-pitched descending sound which sounds eerily like a bomb dropping.
*** The sudden transition from this song into "Underwear" could also count.

It starts off as a pretty quiet, mostly acoustic track which launches into a more energetic, rocking section about two-thirds of the way through, which quickly disintegrates into a cacophony of screaming guitars, clattering drums, doomy synths and Jarvis screaming, until the drums and guitars fade out leaving the ominous synths and Jarvis chanting "Breathe in, breathe out" as the song fades out.

It sounds incredibly melancholy, and once you realise the song is about a dad who walked out on his family and is pleading with his son to not become like him it gets sadder. It gets even more heartbreaking once you realise that this song was based on Jarvis Cocker's own experiences, as his dad walked out on his family when Jarvis was seven.

** "Common People" is just so utterly filled with despair and hopelessness and bitter rage it's hard not to feel a tug at the heartstrings, especially at the lines "''You'll never fail like common people / You'll never watch your life slide out of view''" and "''You will never understand / How it feels to live your life / With no meaning or control''", especially if you can relate to the sentiment of the lyrics - watching your dreams slowly die as you try to make a living for yourself, eventually losing all control over your existence and acquiescing to the boredom and mundaneness of working-class life.
