A few I haven’t seen mentioned:
Casmir Pulaski day, Sufjan Stevens: https://youtu.be/TfEkDqP34xo Elephant, Jason Isbell: https://youtu.be/LHJhyrrUTgc Don’t come easy, Patty Griffin https://youtu.be/ODG2dCwnr00 My ex-DH is in treatment for stage IIIB cancer and it doesn’t look good. We have young kids. Sad songs help me breakdown so I can buck up and keep on going for everyone. |

Over You by Miranda Lambert
I'll Never Love Again by Lady Gaga |
I’m so sorry you are going through this. I think ‘melancholy’ songs as one poster put it, have healing properties like chicken noodle soup. ((hugs)) Sufjan Stevens also wrote Fourth of July. The song is about his mother, who left the family when Sufjan was young, and later passed from cancer. This song is a poetic ‘conversation’ between Sufjan and her. It is his mother comforting him. |

Angels by Robbie Williams
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luwAMFcc2f8 Two of Us by Louis Tomlinson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jukhJtIhsik Both have some poignant lyrics about death, grief and loss. Tomlinson's are particularly raw (death of this mother). I don't particularly like Tomlinson's voice and there are already a couple covers I prefer. |

Dolores O’ Riordan from the cranberries “When you’re Gone”
https://youtu.be/QJ7vgnWARNA And I miss you, when you're gone That is what I do, bay-, bay-, babe And it's going to carry on That is what I knew, bay-, bay-, baby Hold on to my hands I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you And to my mind, everything's stinking Stinking without you |
Yes!!! All the feels.... +2 Every time I hear this song I just completely zone out and get a feeling in the pit of my stomach. You can hear his pain! |
