    “Me And Bobby McGee” by Janis Joplin. It was one of the songs played at my fiancé’s funeral after they passed from cancer.

    One more light by Linkin Park brings me to tears because it makes me realize how much LP has always helped me out and that Chester is gone.

    I love the song, but it really makes me sad that I’ll never meet one of my childhood idols, and it’s also given me fomo of not being able to see other bands I love in concert

    Most songs about love and relationship. Which I guess is one of the reasons why I barely listen to popular/mainstream music, since like 80% of them are about those.

    “The Night We Met” by Lord Huron.
    It hits like a wave of memories you didn’t ask for — quiet, heavy, and heartbreakingly nostalgic.

    That Funny Feeling by Bo Burnham. It’s weirdly a crashout depression song and a comfort song for me. The song is so twisted and perfect and true and in its self-awareness it makes me so sad, but also gives me a shred of hope in this shit hole country.

    The ultimate depression song is Losing My Religion by R.E.M. It isn’t a song about religion. It is a song about losing faith in the people around you.

    When I was in high school I was always drained and tired and emotional, and so almost every night I listened to If I Die Young. Listening to that song instantly makes me cry.

    I didn’t even like this song when it came out but now I can just feel what would happen if my husband fell out of love with me. The grief and helplessness.
