Someone Like You by Adele

Everybody Hurts By REM

Whiskey lullaby is sad for me because my dad died from alcoholism so any song about drinking like that is touchy for me.

[AndrésC64]

Wow. So sorry to hear that.😟

[annabananna]

Thankyou for mho

[lrina]

tbh i find 4th of July the saddest

[AndrésC64]

I don't know that one. I'll have to check it out.

[TsAubreyKate]

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead💯

[AndrésC64]

I wish nothing but the best for you

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Hurt by Johnny Cash

[AndrésC64]

Yeah. One of the best covers ever.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@AndrésC64 Yes, I agree with you

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Thanks for MHO :)

Johnny Cash. it is just sad

[AndrésC64]

Yeah, I love the way that they did the video.

[LexiLuv91]

Whiskey Lullaby 😥

[AndrésC64]

I've seen that one so many times and it still makes me cry. 😭

[LexiLuv91]

Same! It's definitely one of those types of songs that you don't hear, you FEEL.

[AndrésC64]

Yeah.

[pixie215]

johnny cash, hurt

[AndrésC64]

Yeah, it really is sad and the way that they did the video as a sort of look back on his life. You know that was originally a Nine Inch Nails song?

[pixie215]

im a nerd always reading, it was amazing

[Curmudgeon]

@AndrésC64 YES, and while I think the NIN song was about addiction, Johnny Cash sang it in terms of a dying man looking back at life, and, in real life, he and his beloved June Carter Cash (the old lady at the video's ending) were both terminally ill. June died 4 months later, Johnny, 7 months.

[AndrésC64]

Yep. He struggled with addiction too.

[Curmudgeon]

@AndrésC64 Bingo!

[XXblack88]

Whisk lullaby

[AndrésC64]

Yeah, I'd say so.

[XXblack88]

Oh I left the ey out of whiskey.
