Phil Elverum from The Microphones and Mount Eerie lost his wife to cancer and then wrote an album about it called A Crow Looked at Me. It is absolutely heartbreaking. Here’s the opener from the album.
Real Death - Mount Eerie
There’s plenty of sad songs in this thread but this is the “this isn’t cathartic it’s just devastating” kind of sad that can only come from real, deep, somber, visceral pain
That’s a great way of putting it. It’s devastating and honestly difficult to listen to. But maybe someone needs to hear it so that’s why I posted it
Absolutely, Phil’s an incredible artist that doesn’t get nearly as much attention as he deserves
