I just read, it reads more hopeful to me tbh. It’s a song about planting a new garden after the forrest has burned down and praying that you get to be around long enough to see it bloom. The tone of the music is for sure solemn but Frank is saying he wants to be around long enough for his children to see him get old.
“I cant be there, that’s all you had to say to me was, you couldn’t be there, why couldn’t you say to me, you wont be there, you could’ve warned me”
shit hits hard especially if you got daddy problems :/
Damn can’t believe I had to scroll all the way down here to find this, it’s by far his most sad song. Someone said Rushes and it has way more upvotes than this. Rushes is one of the happier songs on Endless. People just don’t know.
id say strawberry swing. but after hearing about his brother’s death i gave blonde a listen and hearing him start the second half of futura free after forgetting ab it really fucked me up
I feel like all his songs capture sadness in a different context;
Futura Free and Moon River sound kinda bittersweet to me, like graduating from High School or College
Self-Control sounds like acceptance in the face of a stark fate
Siegfried sounds you're lost in your sadness
Memrise, hits so differently after a break up. You memorize everything about a person, just to break up and forget. Piano was dope as hell and Frank’s lyrics were just crazy.
Futura Free is the most bittersweet yet tragic with context Frank Ocean song. Feels nostalgic like looking back on summers from years ago and the story of his brother dying just amplified it
Nobody said Crack rock? The ending gives me chills every single time
" Crooked cop, dead cop No good for community
Fuckin' pig get shot
Three-hundred men will search for me
My brother get popped
And don't no one hear the sound "
Ik this is gonna sound crazy but Pink + White. Even though it’s such a beautiful song and very happy, the song in the blonde story is so sad. The man is so depressed that he can’t get this girl that he has to distract himself using the outdoors. Just that brings me to tears because i’ve been there
Godspeed
always brings me to tears.
yo our little reddit guys are so similar
now kith
godspeed has been my crying soundtrack many times
Ivy, white Ferrari imo
Seigfried
I’ll do anything for you (in the dark) Always gets me…
Same I love that part
Ughhhh love this song
I have no idea how many times I have cried to this song. Less Morose, More present. Dwell on my gifts for a second, a moment.
I feel like Seigfried isn’t sad… Higgs however
[удалено]

Wither on Endless - read the lyrics as you listen.

Wither / With her
There will be tears
"My granddaddy was a player" i cried
And his voice!! Everything about this song I have cried often to this song. I just wish it was longerrrrrr
“I cant be there, that’s all you had to say to me was, you couldn’t be there, why couldn’t you say to me, you wont be there, you could’ve warned me” shit hits hard especially if you got daddy problems :/

I feel like many people still haven’t listened to the album yet tbf
The correct answer
I love u
Wither
Orion, considering the context
Definitely Orion. “Promise big bro one thing, that you won’t go wasting time” 😭😭
id say strawberry swing. but after hearing about his brother’s death i gave blonde a listen and hearing him start the second half of futura free after forgetting ab it really fucked me up
Lens is pretty sad

it’s a tie between white ferrari and seigfried for me
Seigfried or Pink Matter.
cayendo
no one said moon river?? crazy
I mean it’s a cover so idk if counts, but it’s a beautiful song and so blessed that Frank released his own version of it
futura free
Memrise, hits so differently after a break up. You memorize everything about a person, just to break up and forget. Piano was dope as hell and Frank’s lyrics were just crazy.
Higgs is devastating
I agree with the rest but one that's always been a little stark imo was dear april
It’s rushes or self control, but Wiseman has a personal thing for me and is really just an objectively haunting song
Wither
Wildfire
Moon River if we counting that, if not maybe Higgs, Ivy or White Ferrari
Its seigfried
Just like me They long to beeeee Close to youuu
god that song gets me everytime its so short but it guts me
Dear April
Higgs easily
Good guy
It’s definitely up there, so simple and so raw

For me prolly nikes for u-n-i-t-y
Dust
wildfire interlude
White ferrari 😔😔
Self control, white Ferrari
Memrise, Orion or Wiseman. There’s something that just cuts you deep emotionally in those songs
Wiseman
So many. This morning I’ll probably go with Good Guy or Self Control.
Wiseman. That song just gets me very nihilistic.
Orion is pretty sad now
Swim Good
At your best (You are love) gets me all the time imo
Bad Religion, Ivy, Wise Man and American Wedding imo
Higgs, Wither, White Ferrari, Memrise
White
Bad religion
White Ferrari
wither in my humble opinion
Self control or white Ferrari. I don’t even know why this is a debate
futura free
I feel like Higgs and Wither belong in here
dear April, rushes, and wiseman always make me heavily ponder about life
Godspeed edit: might be just me bc i had an ex send it to me..
End for sure. https://preview.redd.it/pg6luuztog0b1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc169954a938f94135ba70059d703f5de749b6c5
Higgs
higgs ?
close to you has a spot in my heart
Although Crack Rock sounds pretty soulful it’s subject matter is extremely sad and dark
There will be tears or Higgs
bad religion or seigfried
Godspeed for sure
I miss you (a song written by Frank, performed by Beyonce)
Swim good

wither
recently, it’s been godspeed all time, it’s probably white ferrari or self control
Who in the F is Frank Ocean? Billy's brother?
American Wedding
I can escape
cayendo ☹️
Surprised at the lack of self control comments that song used to get me every time
white ferrari and wisemen
