You’re the sunshine of my lifeStevie Wonder
A gem of a love song by Stevie Wonder from the United States, one that wraps your heart like warm sunlight.
Its straightforward expression of love—singing that an irreplaceable person is the sun that illuminates his life—reaches deep into the soul.
The song is included on the classic 1972 album “Talking Book” and was released as a single in March 1973.
The floating tones of the electric piano and the gentle rhythm are wonderfully romantic, and his vocals—honored at the 16th Annual Grammy Awards—are irresistible.
Listen to it on a calm weekend morning or during special moments with someone you love, and you’ll feel yourself surrounded by tenderness.

Your Cheatin’ HeartHank Williams
This is a song by Hank Williams, the American singer known as the father of modern country music.
The song portrays, in stark terms, the guilt and loneliness that await the person who betrayed him.
Even if they keep a calm face now, the song declares that one day they’ll shed tears of regret on sleepless nights—a searing message.
It seems to foresee not only resentment toward the other person, but also the self-inflicted suffering that lies ahead.
Released just after Hank’s death, it came out in January 1953 and held the number-one spot for six consecutive weeks, and in 1964 it became the title of a biographical film.
The end of a love that hurts someone else ultimately only brings pain to oneself.
Perhaps that inescapable truth is what pierces the heart.
You Set The SceneLove
This is the third album released in 1967 by the American rock band Love.
In an era when psychedelia was at its peak, its deliberate return to folk rock and baroque pop meant that it initially received a rather modest reception—something some of you may already know.
Yet its sound—acoustic guitars entwined with dreamlike strings and horns—is truly one of a kind.
In contrast to its beautiful melodies, it explores introspective themes such as disillusionment with society and reflections on life and death, and that profound contrast captivates listeners.
With the passage of time, it has been reassessed, and today it stands as a masterpiece shining in music history, a monumental record that continues to influence countless artists.
You’re Gonna Miss MeThe 13th Floor Elevators
This is the debut album by the American band the 13th Floor Elevators, released in 1966.
Known as the first record in the world to feature the word “psychedelic” in its title, it opened the door to the genre and stands as a historic milestone.
Roky Erickson’s frenzied, madcap vocals fuse with the electric jug’s uniquely floating timbre, drawing listeners into another dimension.
The anecdote that it was recorded under the influence of LSD may well contribute to its legendary status.
Hugely influential on the later alternative rock scene and still commanding a cult following, this album lets you feel the heat of the very moment music history shifted.
Your AlibisLisa Stansfield
This is the memorable debut single released by Lisa Stansfield from the UK when she was 15.
She would later captivate the world with her soulful voice, but on this 1981 track she offers a sound that fuses new wave and pop.
The airy synth tones and her still-innocent vocals are a perfect match, aren’t they? Despite the slightly grown-up title, “Your Excuse,” the melody seems to hold both the fragility and purity of youth.
It’s a captivating song that makes you feel that this raw, uncut brilliance was the prelude to her later global success.
Your Broken ShoreMy Dying Bride
My Dying Bride, pioneers of British Gothic doom.
Released in January 2020, this track appears on the masterpiece The Ghost of Orion.
It portrays searing despair and deep melancholy, as if standing motionless on the shore of shattered hopes.
Aaron Stainthorpe’s restrained roars and clean vocals weave a tragic soundscape that perfectly matches the band’s worldview.
Perhaps owing to the personal trials that surrounded its creation, you can sense a prayer-like anguish—and the peculiar beauty born from it—in every corner of the sound.
On nights sunk in inescapable sorrow, why not surrender yourself to this imposing sonic presence?
You Break Me FirstTate McRae
This is a heartbreak song by Canadian singer-songwriter Tate McRae that holds both strength and fragility.
It portrays the cold yet sorrowful feelings when an ex who once hurt you reaches out only when it’s convenient for them.
The line “You’re the one who broke me first” pushes them away, squeezing your chest as you hear it.
Behind those searing words, it feels as if there’s a deep sadness so intense that without saying them, her heart might fall apart.
For anyone who’s been through a painful love, it may resonate with that moment when you put on a brave face to protect yourself.
Her delicate vocals riding over a quiet beat gently wrap around that pain and bring you to tears.
