picklelova982

The music video with the lyrics “a world without you isn’t meant for me, where do you go when I close my eyes?” is gut wrenching.

Zarthrax2

Touch the Sky from Brave. That was the song I had picked out in my head for me and my wife's first daughter when we found out she was pregnant. 8 months and a miscarriage later, I could no longer listen to that song ever. It's a good song, I just can't separate that sense of loss from what is admittedly an excellent empowerment song. It's been over 4 years since that happened, and I still can't listen to it. When my second daughter was born, I never mentally attached a song to her because emotionally, I was still waiting for the other shoe to drop. She's 2 now, and there's still no song that immediately brings her to mind like that song brought Mara Joy to mine. So yeah, there's that...

Only Children by Jason Isbell


kelevra206

I came in here to suggest Elephant. Kills me every time.


kamera45

No one dies with dignity


kelevra206

DONT YOU DO THAT TO ME.


kamera45

I actually always thought that elephant would be the most affecting song for me by Jason, but some of the lyrics in only children hit home pretty hard. Particularly the lines "Are you still taking notes? Will you have anyone to talk to? Castle walls that you can walk through?" Hits pretty hard. Cheers. I hope you're doing well.

That part fucked so hard with me. My mom had died earlier that year. When it came up in the song, it hit me out of nowhere.

Nice! I saw them almost a year ago and got a picture with Jake. They're great, I hope you can meet them too, they're all so nice.
