Anyone got any good examples of songs echoing the Myth of Orpheus (e.g. songs of inconsolable love and loss)?

I'll start with Sam Sparro - Black and Gold

Oh definitely Song to the Siren, was my immediate response. I like the This Mortal Coil version. That was the immediate one my brain came up with anyway.
