LOOKING FOR BEAUTIFUL BUT SAD (mainly) ROCK SONGS

Hello there, I have Spotify playlist for times I'm not feeling very cheerful. However, 95% of those songs are in my life for AGES. I need something new to touch my heart with beautiful yet sad lyrics and wonderful music.

Any ideas?

Give this song a listen. I wrote it in honor of my father and 98 of his shipmates that died on the USS Scorpion submarine. It's code name was Brandywine.

This one has meaning for me. I don't know if it will for you, but it fits your criteria.

Hi, here is my sad rock tune that starts with piano and strings then builds with guitars if you would like to take a listen.

I like  I Prevails Alone, Mayday parade terrible things and pop evil torn to pieces for slow songs with a deep sad meaning.

One : Metallica
Tears In Heaven : Eric Clapton
Cry : Dark Princess
Didn't We Almost Have It All : Whitney Houston

Mayday Parade has multiple tunes I'd say are fitting, thanks for recommendations, they're really good songs 🙂

Kurt Cobain's cover of the Beatles song is sooo beautiful!! I'm glad there are others that love it too! 

TRY this play list DYSPHORIA MADE MELLOW BY drred2510 or TRY MY MOURNING NEVER ENDS as second option
