The fake YouTube page of animals taking care of other animal species had me in tears.

I closed on a new house three weeks ago that needs some fix uppins. . I've started on some stuff, but I'm dragging ass because im staying at my slightly estranged biological brother's house a mile away and I kind of like it. He left me alone a lot because he was always in trouble and got shipped around to our three different sets of parents. His choice - running from problems.
Always had a brother but never really had a brother. It's nice.

We live and we die, we know not why
But I'll be with you when the deal goes down
the saddest song I know--

Nice bump KQ
How memories change. In 2016, here in my own thread, I listed Aerosmith’s Angel.
It’s still fantastic. But moreso for the 6th grade nostalgia.
And it’s currently a recommended wasp repellent.

Now, I look out over tops of houses and the shops
As the sun sets, another day does wind down
And my life is still the same, my lips still call your name
And my heart can't hide the pain...late in the day

I'll see you in another life now, baby
I'll free you in my dreams
But when I reach across the galaxy
I will miss your company

Eva Cassidy 1963-1996 RIP Eva.
Man could she sing.
Fuck cancer.
I’ve been listening to this on and off since I first heard it in the early 80’s; so damn beautifully sad.

And olidie of mine that I go to, but still holds up like a star:
"Kilkelly Ireland"
This song has always been with me, and beautifully sad is precisely why.

Now I've paid my dues cuz I have owed them, but I've paid a price sometimes
For being such a stubborn woman in such stubborn times
Now I have run from the arms of lovers, I've run from the eyes of friends
I have run from the hands of kindness, I've run just because I can
But now I'm grown and I speak like a woman and I see with a woman's eyes
And an open door is to me now is like the saddest of goodbyes
It's too late for turning back, I pray for the heart and the nerve
And I rely upon the moon, I rely upon the moon
I rely upon the moon and Saint Christopher to be my guide
Put on a Down Like Silver playlist if you want beautifully sad.

When I die let the wolves enjoy my bones
When I die let me go
When I die let the wolves enjoy my bones
When I die let me go
When I die you can push me out to sea
When I die set me free
When I die let the sharks come 'round to feed
When I die set me free
Oh, the world is dark
And I've looked as far as I can see
When the years have torn me apart
Let me be

Doesn't hurt that this was recorded while she was dying of cancer
Surely someone has posted some Chente:

If I could just make it stop
Breaking my heart
Get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
You see I'm close to the edge
I'm at the end of my rope
The rope is starting to thread
I'm trying to keep my hold
You say I'm something I'm not
But I'm not what I seem
Get my back off the wall
If I could just make it stop
Johnny Cash - Hurt
I'm a NIN/TR fan, but Johnny Cash made this his own, and I really connected with it.
Years later, I would see the video for the first time, I remember feeling a real visceral sadness in reaction to viewing it, and every time I've watched it since.

....
Wake up it's time to go
The taste of tears still in your throat
Silence from your songs
Reminds us, when you are gone
We can't hate the river for flowing
Can't blame the wild wind blowing
Can't slow time from running
We can't stop what's coming
wow haven't even heard of the the in 20 years

It's so hard to come by
That feeling of peace
This friend of mine said
Close your eyes
And try a few of these
I thought I was flying like a bird
So far above my sorrow
When I looked down
I was standing on my knees
Now I need someone to help me
Someone to help me please
Baby if you need me
Like I know I need you
There's just one thing
I'll ask you to do
Take my hand and lead me
To the hole in your garden wall
And pull me through
Pull me through

I had a lover
I don't think I'll risk another
These days, these days
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long
I've stopped my dreaming
I won't do too much scheming
These days, these days
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten
Please don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
This one is about 500 years old, the themes of love, jealousy, privilege, rage are immemorial. It went to the US and Canada with migrations of folks and many versions exist, it then came back again, it had pretty much died out in the U.K. except for in Scotland. The story of the singer pretty tragic too, lovely voice and guitar.

I'm still a tech jong, that vid was supposed to embed

Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
I'll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down down down, on me
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in
But don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path, up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again
And you say, just be here now
Forget about the past, your mask is wearing thin
Just let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call
It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
It's just that times are lean
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart, let the light shine in
Don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
On a clear day I can see, see for a long way
On a clear day I can see, see for a long way
