Most heartbroken songs ever

[Smallestwomanthateverlived]

I'm currently divorcing my husband. I've been strong and angry, but totally I'm just feeling heartbreakingly sad. I've tried some Taylor swift songs but they just aren't sad enough. Anyone got any recommendations for some songs I can just be utterly broken to for an hour before I sick it all back up and crack on. I've currently got hurt by Jonny cash on but it's not quite the vibe I want.

Tears in Heaven is the ultimate in sad songs, not only is it the lyrics but the story behind it

What Becomes of the Broken Hearted
Jimmy Ruffin

Band of Gold also good for singing loudly to, might be wuite cathartic.

In Too Deep is perfect for this, heartbreaking lyrics.

Impossible James Arthur.

It doesn’t fit your theme, but if you want a sad song to make you cry, they don’t come much sadder than Old Shep by Elvis Presley. It makes me howl every time (and I don’t even especially like dogs!)

If you could read my mind - Gordon Lightfoot.
River- Joni Mitchell
Sophia-Nerina Pallot
Romeo and Juliet- Dire Straits
Untitled-The Cure
Disarm-Smashing Pumpkins
Madam George-Van Morrison
April come she will-Simon and Garfunkel.
There is a light that never goes out-The Smiths

Snuff by slipknot
song 3 by stone sour
everybody’s fool by evanescence
and for when yore ready to go back to angry
i hope you’re miserable until you’re dead by Nessa Barrett. (I clearly didn’t take my last break up very well)

Also Song to the Siren-Tim Buckley

My suggestion for an angry song would be Good 4 You by Olivia Rodrigo - I find it very cathartic to sing along to this at full volume!

Hurt is by Nine Inch Nails, not Johnny Cash. You might also like 'Something I can Never Have', also by Nine Inch Nails and even more devastatingly sad x

Ooh I like that one! Maybe I'm not as sad as I thought, possibly just misplaced anger.

Yes this is a good one!

ABBA. The Winner takes it all. Sung with such emotion. Hang in there OP. It does get better ☺️

Ahh
I didn't know they did it originally. Jonny cash covered it.

Leo Sayer : I cant stop loving you
Robert John: Sad eyes
Sad Cafe: Every day hurts

Another Love by Tom Odell

I love Olivia for a good angry sing along. Traitor is my fav. And drivers license.

Also “ Leaving me now” by Level 42 x

I found the unrequited love songs got me not because of stbxh but because I don’t feel anyone will love me again. So I guess it’s unrequited from every other male on the planet🤣

Not quite right for your sentiment, but Alan Parsons Project Old and wise is powerful. 💐

Getting away with it (all messed up) by james

Help me make it though the night Gladys knight version

Also Gladys’s version of the way we were

Last one was my Covid cry song Big Star 13 gets me every time

Back to Black - Amy Winehouse

Everybody hurts - REM
Nothing compares to you - Sinead O'connor
When your gone - Avril Lavigne
One of us - Abba

Yes to Bon Iver.
‘How to Save a life’ -The Fray.
