Hey there everybody! It's Tuesday evening so it's that time again - time to leave the bad news and politics behind and instead focus on jammin' to our favorite songs.
As many of us have had, I've had a lot of loss in my life: loss of belongings, heartbreaks, loss of livlihood, etc... I've even buried several good friends at this point. So tonight's theme is going to reflect that sadness.
Tonight's theme is sad songs. Songs about loss, pain, heartache, heartbreak, regret, just utter sadness and grief and all the stuff that goes along with it. A song can be about sad things, or just a song where the music makes you sad. It's a pretty broad theme, so I think you'll do this diary proud! Bring your hankies!
So what are your favorite sad songs?
Come below for a few of mine!
