Is music truly an inspiration to cry? I think yes. So many times, when I listen to some songs, all that comes to my head is what happened in the past and what really made me sad. Sometimes, it will be the lyrics of the song. Sometimes, it will be the tone or beat and sometimes,it may be the rhythm. Oh yeah, it is very possible.
And sometimes, it may be everything as a whole. So many songs make me cry and when I’m in a sad mood or when I feel like crying, I listen to those songs.
Are there truly songs that can make people cry or am I just joking? Yeah, there are songs like that. Let’s have just three of them.
When I was your man
When I was your man by Bruno Mars is one song that puts me in the crying mood. That’s why I barely listen to it and I only listen to it when I’m remembering some particular incidents. This song became more sorrowful to me when I learned the lyrics of the song.
This song makes me remember my ex boyfriend. I remember how he treated me and the things he did to me. I know I’m not perfect but I’m not bad as well and I deserve to be loved. It hurts when I listen to this song thinking about those days and truly, I am inspired to cry whenever I listen to this song.
Someone like you
The crazy thing about this song is that it makes me remember my ex boyfriend as well. Do you know the painful part of it? It’s the fact that I see his posts on WhatsApp and continues to post like nothing happened between us. I can bet that he barely thinks about me. What if I find someone like him or even someone better than him?
Maybe this is also what Adele was going through when she wrote this song and to be very honest with you, she got me because I’m in this exact mood right now so maybe we are now in the same shoes.
Wish you were here
Sometimes, I remember my uncle. I remember my beloved uncle and it makes me cry that he is no more here with us. Till we meet again, right? It’s so sad to remember the dead especially when it is someone you used to love very much.
Wish you were here by Pink Floyd makes me remember my uncle whom I lost fourteen years ago. Dear uncle, till we meet again.
Back to black
Do you ever realize that there were times when I was always depressed? I mean, I cry almost everyday of my life. I got used to it to the point that it feels weird when I don’t cry in a day.
What if Amy Winehouse was depressed when she made this song? It’s crazy, you know.
One thing I’m sure of is that there are days when we may need to cry that depression out of us and songs like this may be helpful.
