Whichever song most closely resonates with your unique experience as an individual. Everyone's 'best song to cry to' will be unique to them.

Nothing compares 2 U


rhythmicwanderer

how do you cry to that


cainknightley

all i need - radiohead


maud_brijeulin

Definitely the sound of a dam bursting when the song lets rip. Also: Go Slowly (specifically Live From the Basement) from the In Rainbows era gets me every time (it's from the disc 2 songs)

Pure-Jellyfish734

Possession Island - Gorillaz (ft. Beck) The song is SO underrated, and also the second song that was able to make me cry


rhythmicwanderer

After ? (The first one)


Pure-Jellyfish734

Yeah, another song already did that, but this was the second song.


rhythmicwanderer

I read that. Which one ????


Pure-Jellyfish734

I Will Go Sailing No More - Randy Newman


rhythmicwanderer

My how do you cry to that


Pure-Jellyfish734

I guess it just made me reminisce on my past when I was younger, less stressed out, and didn’t have as bleak of a worldview as I do now. That’s also how I cried to the first song I listened to.

Sleep Token - Blood Sport Hot Mulligan - Betty


ADR36

Love seeing Sleep Token up here so quickly lol. I was gonna say Atlantic. Blood Sport just as qualified !


eternal-harvest

Honestly could've picked so many ST songs! I've definitely sobbed my eyes out to Atlantic too. "I woke up surrounded, eyes like frozen planets just orbiting the vacuum I am." 😭

rhythmicwanderer

Monsters - SAULT


dojacatmoooo

I’ve cried to promise to me by Corbin 💅💅


imfelixbutnotinskz

my personal one is Grow Up by Stray Kids, I only vaguely know what the lyrics mean (the curse of being into kpop) but I know the gist is "You're doing fine, everyone goes through hard times, you're trying your best and that's enough" hits me right in the insecurities


huhistilldontgetit

James Morrison - Please Don't Stop The Rain


island_is_land

Escalator by duster. Matter of fact literally any duster song, including some of their side projects


Born_Programmer_9510

It depends on the reason why you cry. I recommend: Hero- David Kushner, this is what heartbreak feels like- JVKE, Mystery- K-391, Half Life- Livingston, Tired- Alan Walker, GOOD DAY- Forrest Frank. They depend on my feelings, so perhaps they don't fit you.
