Great suggestion by @sangerwitch1187.bsky.social No Need to Argue by the Cranberries covered by the Boulet Brothers. "Was it all a waste of time? "Cuz I knew, I knew I'd lose you." Basically, no need to argue when you know it is over. Sad breakup song. #musicsky #nowplaying

Say It Ain't So by Weezer. This peppy SSOTD is actually a heartbreaker. "Dear daddy, I write you in spite of the years of silence. You've cleaned up, found Jesus. Things are good, or so I hear." A song about divorce, alcoholism, and generational trauma. #musicsky #nowplaying

Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel. Deep and sad SSOTD. "People talking without speaking. People hearing without listening." "I turned my collar to the cold and damp." Simon said he wrote this about people's inability to communicate with each other. #musicsky #nowplaying

Suicidal Thoughts by the Notorious B.I.G. TW language and suicidal themes. "I wonder; if I died, would tears come to her eyes? Forgive me for my disrespect, forgive me for my lies." In my opinion, one of the best rappers and a very sad and real song. #musicsky #nowplaying

No Children by The Mountain Goats. This feels like an appropriate angry break-up SSOTD for this Monday. "I hope the worst isn't over and I hope you blink before I do. I hope I never get sober. " About two people going through a nasty breakup. #musicsky #nowplaying #music

Friend of the Devil by the Grateful Dead. I like this slower cover by the Counting Crows. "Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night." A sad song of an outlaw on the run, dealing with guilt, anxiety, regret, fear and missing his girl. #musicsky #nowplaying #gratefuldead

Hey Joe by Jimi Hendrix. This is an old SSOTD originally written by Billy Roberts . It has been recorded by over 100 of artists. A sad tale of a man shooting his wife for cheating and escaping to Mexico. Some see it as symbolic of oppression. #musicsky #nowplaying #music

Half Blind by Ye Vagabonds. Sad and beautiful song by an Irish folk group. "Torn between resisting and resigning. Like a fly toward a flame inclining." Basically, it is better to lose an eye than have a broken heart. "So forsaking love to be admired!" #musicsky #nowplaying

TV by Billie Ellish. "I'll stay in the pool and drown

Sick of Losing Soulmates by Dodie. Such a good SSOTD and singer. "I can finally see you're as fucked up as me so how do we win." I feel this song! The idea of starting a relationship, falling in love, thinking you will be with that person forever and falling apart. #musicsky

Michigan by the Milk Carton Kids. Love this sad song, worth a listen. "So when she calls, don't send her my way
When it hurts, you'll know it's the right thing." About escaping painful love but it's hard to leave. "MIchigan's in the rear-view now." #musicsky #nowplaying #music

Nobody Home by Pink Floyd. Classic. "And that is how I know
When I try to get through on the telephone to you, there will be nobody home." It is about isolation, addiction, and alienation, but at least he has electric light. #musicsky #nowplaying #pinkfloyd

This has to be one of the saddest songs. "Please do not break my heart. I think it's had enough pain to last the rest of my life." Heartbreaking love bordering on obsession. "You don't have to make any promises, love, I'm afraid I might die for you now." I have felt this. #musicsky #nowplaying

Friday's SSOTD is Sail On by the Commodores. Heartbreaking song about divorce. "I gave all my money and my time. I know it's a shame but I'm giving you back your name." The video is worth it for the eye contact alone. #musicsky #nowplaying #justgoaway
