van the man is the soundtrack to my teenage depressed days. when i was 17 i got super depressed (like most teenagers) and seriously hated everything and wanted to swallow a fith of bourbon and jump off a brigge. every day after id get back from hanging with my friends and listening to punk, metal, and extreme/experimental stuff id totally let my guard down and put on van, drink alone, and sometimes, cry. of course now i do this when i just listen to him happily (brings back memories).

That's interesting because I was going through a period of quite bad depression around the same time that you mention and would listen to Veedon Fleece a hell of a lot. I never really thought about it as a sad album, but I did become quite obsessed with it. 'Linden Arden Stole the Highlights' is still one of my favourite songs of all times.
