Ok, I've been listening to nothing but electronic music for about six years now and it's time to branch out. I'm looking for recommendations for male/singer songwriters, I like the melancholy sound the best. Two I've discovered so far are Jeff Bucklet and Rufus Wainwright. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Justin Timberlake?
-
Ryan Adams
-
Bryan adams?
-
John Adams?

Yes, idiots. John and Bryan Adams. They did a duet.
:roll:

Hey, why not? Both are forward thinking, both are fairly creative, and they're both Canadian.
Right?
-
Bob Dylan.
Right now I'm really digging Mike Park's acoustic album. Good stuff. Plus you can never go wrong with the Man In Black.

Speaking of musically inclined forward thinking, creative Canadians...

Oh, I’m too tired

And I’m feeling very sick and ill today.

And Johnny Marr's riff at the end of What Difference... haunts me still...

Amazon.com usually has music clips available. Or, check your library system.

Buy the CD perhaps. Or I think he has samples on his MySpace page cricky right here (http://www.myspace.com/mikepark)

I've been listening to a lot of EELS lately. It may be up your alley.

I'm enjoying Mike Park a bunch, thanks for the suggestion, pbsaurus. Checking out EELS too. Found a really good artist over the weekend, name's Richard Swift. Anyone heard of him? Here's his site and clips:

I got drunk with him once. I'd start with Heartbreaker or Gold, but hard to go wrong with any.

Got drunk with who once? Richard Swift? Rad.

Way to clarify...
No, abortretryfail, he means Ryan Adams.

I'd agree on Ryan Adams, and add Bright Eyes, Damien Rice, Devendra Banhart, M. Ward, Elliott Smith, Aimee Mann, Michael Penn, Nick Drake, Badly Drawn Boy, Fiona Apple, Paul Westerberg... ok, that's enough.
