@Straylight I almost went with I Will Wait For You - aka the ending song from the Futurama episode Jurassic Bark but it's too cute and only so many people would get what's basically a troll pick lol
Straylight · 31-35, F
@CountScrofula I would have got it!
Straylight · 31-35, F
@CountScrofula I already have my picks for the next two songs though!
Wow…what an interesting collection. So many artist I haven’t heard of😅

He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones

@Pawpaw2molly This was the first song to pop in my head, too.

Okay playlist thoughts (carefully avoiding my own song):
- I did not like like half of this lmao you all need to do a better job of being depressed.
- Carissa's Wierd and Sufjan Stevens had the best sad songs. The Carissa's Wierd song is the bleakest song about suicide I've ever heard and Sufjan can write a TUNE, man.
- Me and a gun by Tori is harrowing and definitely gets points.
- The Catch 22 song was baffling why would you write an upbeat 2-tone song about your dying mother. If I got out my trombone and started skanking to my dead dad my family would have me shot.
- Gogol Bordello is a favourite band of mine. Apparently this tune was on the soundtrack to a movie about suicide which makes it a worthy inclusion but the song didn't make me sad.

@CountScrofula I put in my comment about Catch 22 that I have a soft spot for upbeat sounding songs with bleak lyrics.
I’ve loved Gogol Bordello since I’d heard Wonderlust King a thousand years ago.

I almost posted The Beer by Kimya Dawson but ended up going with the song I did because it's music for people who know how they're going to die and is one of the bleakest songs I know https://open.spotify.com/track/18nZKLSzod0avci3LDix4E?si=YD3hAXFaTNmAL1uvVzzIiw%0A
