My Heart Will Go OnCéline Dion
Included on the 1997 album “Let’s Talk About Love.” Featured in the film “Titanic,” released the same year.
Born in 1968.
A musician from Canada.
The exquisitely beautiful melody, carried by a slow-tempo rhythm, becomes unbearably and cruelly beautiful when you consider the film’s tragic nature, and it brings tears to your eyes.
Bad DayDaniel Powter
The hardest day after getting dumped is the day it happens, isn’t it? This is the song I want you to listen to on that very day.
In life, as long as we’re living, there are bound to be bad days.
I believe this song will rescue you in your sadness.
It’s a song that can make a bad day just a little better.
Sometimes I CryEric Benét
It’s a sexy, mature heartbreak song.
The lyrics are very straightforward: I still can’t forget you.
Even while putting on a brave face, the honest feelings are unbearably painful—it’s a classic filled with that kind of aching sadness.
Heartbreak AnniversaryGiveon
There may be no other song that portrays the pain of heartbreak this deeply.
Giveon’s distinctive baritone gently digs up the emotions buried in the depths of the heart.
The pangs of sadness that strike whenever you recall the day you parted, and the way the remaining mementos quietly speak to you, are exquisitely expressed through delicate lyrics and melody.
Released in March 2020 and nominated for a Grammy the following year, this work is recommended for times when you want to heal the pain of a broken heart or reaffirm your bond with someone special.
Why not spend some time facing your own feelings, accompanied by Giveon’s voice?
Because of youKelly Clarkson
This song features beautiful piano and has a very melancholic tone.
When I first listened to it, I thought it was a heartbreak song, but after looking into it, I found that it was composed based on Kelly’s true story and expresses her feelings of anger toward her father.
