Haunting songs..

I'm looking for songs where the vocals are almost haunting..

The kind of song that is like breathy, and can either make someone happy or sad when they listen to it. Sort of like Let Go by Frou Frou, or basically any song by Imogen Heap. A lot of people will have heard that song, and I'm sure you'll know what I'm talking about. It's hard to explain what I mean, but I hope someone understands.

I only know of Frou Frou and Sarah Mclachlan.

Can anyone recommend some?

 

Helena sorta kinda liked has a haunting sound at the first intro

try earthly music, most earthly music has haunting music well barely

 

My Immortal by Evanescence is really haunting. The feeling of the words are echoed in the way it's sung. It sounds sad and lonely.

 

I'd definately suggest the song Nothing can be Explained, used on the 1st Bleach OST...

The Instrumental Version used in the show was great, with a bit of an eerie sound to it.. But the Vocal Version sounds much more 'haunting', I dunno, I didn't like it as much, but it fits your description quite well...

 

Or passion by utada hikaru backwards

 

Haunted - Evanescence (Very Creepy)

Power Slave - Iron Maiden - (Intro is creepy and the song sort of is too.)

 

Soot and Stars - The Smashing Pumpkins
2+2=5 - Radiohead
Muse - Map of your Head

 

hide and seek by imogen heap......such great heights by the postal service isnt so haunting but it makes you happy or sad X]

 

Mazohyst of Decadence by Dir en Grey.

...or quite possible anything from Dir en Grey...

 

Uh, Emilie Simon is sorta like that. She sings in french though, but in some songs she attempts (crappy) english :3

 

My Heart Will Go On-Celine Dion [Sorry if my music is outdated]
Even In Death-Evanescence
No Way Out-Phil Collins (Brother Bear)

 

Thanks for the recommendations, peoples :3

But, yeah.. Evanescence are one of my fav. bands, so I already have all their stuff. But My Immortal definately fits the description of what I'm looking for as being 'haunting'.

And Alice, I gots Dir En Grey's stuff too >:3 KASUMI<33
