    dep - most of depeche mode (brilliant though)

    rom - Satin Green Shutters - Chris de Burgh (dunno why that popped into my head)

    Harry Nilsson - Without you

    Terrific song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Fits in well with the suicide scene in Rules of attraction.

    Leonard Cohen--Everybody knows

    oh, and Fake plastic trees by Radiohead

    I wouldn't say the above two are romantic, but their certainly depressing and deal with lost relationships.

    Also, check out bjork - play dead (with composer David Arnold)

    .......and Bobby Vinton - Blue Velvet (reminds me of a girl I fell for)

    aye.. great song, and destroyed by mariah :) .. his whole Nilsson Schmilsson album is terrific, although the only similar song to the above would be I'll Never Leave You.. pretty touching as well.
