Some songs are dark but it don’t bother me
R.Kelly should be on the list more than one time
He is singing background and wrote the song" Age ain't nothing but a number for Aaliyah
He married her when she was 15 yrs old, and tried to deny it in the 90s.
Also he went to prison for sex trafficking underage girls.
Diddy should be on here more than one time
The beginning of the song, Flavor in yo hear.
When Diddy says "Bad Boys Come Out and Play, has a whole new meaning now, more than one.
His sex tapes with other male celebrities and sex trafficking.
Biggie should be on the list for his song "Just Playing".
He is talking about dating a child and sexually assaulted her.
His lyrics
You can 76 the 69, try 68
Make Raven-Symoné call date r*p*
Raven was 9 yrs old, when he had this song in 1995
"When Doves Cry" by Prince is too disturbing to dance & sing along to after knowing what his parents did to him as a child
What about Linkin Park?
The full album "One More Light" of Linkin Park...
It's all about depression and anxiety Chester feel and giving a hint that one day he will end his life once and for all... 😭
Chose the wrong R.Kelly musical tell. It should’ve been his collab with Aaliyah titled, ‘Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number”
Or "It seems like you're ready"
R Kelly
1. Sex Me
2. Sex in the Kitchen
3. Your Bodys Calling Me
4. You Remind Me of My Jeep
5. The Zoo
6. Slow Wind
7. Like a Snake
8. Down Low
9. Ignition
10. Marry The Pussy
The bump and grind remix says show me some ID before I get any deep
There is no wrong song. His catalog is full of tells.
@@jamesmcgee4029 I second that. Seems like you're ready is a better choice.
Rkelly told us who he was. He called himself the “pied piper of r&b”.
The pied piper used music to lure away children.
Just like Disney did with all their cartoon musical movies.
and he also lure away rats to so are you saying he also fuck rats
I feel most of these artists are quite dark, and their colleagues know but won't say anything until they get caught. More revelations to come for sure...
Let's not forget "Age Ain't Nothin But Number". That song/album plus "How Could The One I Gave My Heart To" from Aaliyah's following album tells all you need to know. Let's also not forget the album art for "Age Ain't Nothin But a Number". Why does R. Kelly need to be in the background? Looking at it now gives off that eerie vibe that's all too common in domestic violence cases from the victim's perspective.
And for those of us who were listening to his music back then, we weren't even thinking about that. We were just enjoying good music.
I feel like every single Linkin Park song was a cry for help from talented Chester Bennington.
Given up especially with the 17 second scream
@@danimotherofchickens479 Please don’t start that
And now I'm sad. 🙁
Every time I hear a LP song, I always wonder, "How did we NOT see that coming?"
None made the list somehow
I think even before she died, everyone knew Amy Winehouse's Rehab was going to age poorly.
Especially when Simon Amstel on Buzzcocks kept joking about her drug and alcohol use. Brilliant episode though
@@jackwoolnough6684 They were relentless! but she really took it in her stride. One of my favourite guests they ever had.
Yep
@@jackwoolnough6684 I think it goes goes a bit deeper, as they both have Jewish parents, so it's was a cultural teasing too.
...or not age!
Listening to my favorite Linkin Park songs makes me sad because I actually listen to the lyrics and realize Chester was singing about his pain.
Essentially one more light
Hearing that now is BRUTAL
Chester was completely open about his pain. It was heartbreaking when he passed but sadly it wasn’t a surprise 😢. Hope he’s found peace.
Exactly, same as me. I was thinking he would be #1 with One More Light or Crawling
Absolutely
I realized that very quickly in my teens, especially from "Breaking the Habit."
"Pumped up Kicks" was played so much on the radio and in media like no one even bothered to listen to the lyrics
💯💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The song always gives me chills as well One way or another
I did. I don't know why no one ever listens to them
To be fair, I think the distortion through a school announcement speaker really helped obscure them from people who didn't quite listen much past the clear chorus
As much as I loved that song looking back now it was extremely creepy considering all of the numerous school shootings that have happened since it's release date
Speaking of R. Kelly, I'd add "Age Ain't Nothing but a Number" by Aaliyah. The album of the same name was produced by Kelly and he and Aaliyah supposedly wed in an illegal marriage. Aaliyah was 15 at the time and Kelly was 27. And we know the rest.
I said it back then! I loved that song cause when I was 17 cause I had a huge crush on someone much older. Then I saw images of Aaliyah and R. Kelly together and thought... 🤔🤔😳🤐
Such a weird album title. I cant even listen to that album, her family sold her out for the money.
It’s not supposed it actually happened
@@remyc29 good for you.
The album art for "Age Ain't Nothin But a Number" is quite incriminating, too. Why does he need to be in the background of someone else's album cover art?
Amy wrote that song about a literal life experience down to the “My daddy thinks I’m fine” line. No foreshadowing, pure bluntness.
I love her so much. Wish she was still here. She was one of those artists that I actually feel like I can relate to. Especially when it comes to addiction. Mac Miller, Juice World and Kurt Cobain are all people that have that unique charm.
@@herpaderp-bp4pe ❤
R-kelly- There trying to keep me from my kids.
Na bro we trying to keep you away from all children
😂
I'm sure that he will plenty of bump and grind now. With the prison population.
Savage! 🤣🤣🤣
Yup! Next monster in the music industry that needs to be taken to prison is the nasty Diddler (P Diddy)
@@aliastheabnormalI just think it's so funny how y'all don't like gay people UNTIL it's to use them to hurt people to delude yourselves into thinking you have morals 😂, what happened to forgiveness and letting go? Oh it's only conditional huh?
After Avicii's death, "Wake Me Up" just hits differently, especially the line, "I wish I could stay forever this young, not afraid to close my eyes."
yess broo🥺🥺
At line always gave me chills even before his death. Now it's chills and sadness
Wake me up and the nights, always hurt more to hear now. They are my fav songs by him..
Lucky by Brittney Spears hits differently since her book was released, it feels like a cry for help now that we know the true depth of her conservatership
That joint came out early in my college days. I understood its meaning back then, but it sure does hit differently now.
"Sometimes" always gets me as well.
She's got a few songs that hit different when you really listen to them
“Everytime” made me cry when I learned earlier today, what it is about. Poor Britney was forced to abort her first baby. Fack J. Timberlake.
@elizabethsmith3374 yess girl I herd that song the other day and it's so true she was crying out for help then smh
Love is a Losing Game, Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number, Going Back to Cali, and Dreaming of You
I would add Nutshell from Alice In Chains to that list. The entire second half of the Dirt album as well. He knew he was losing the battle against H and that it was going to end badly for him.
Aw man I love “Would” so much especially the unplugged version but yes hearing Layne say those lyrics is just bone chilling now “enters the blood again, same old trip it was back then, so I made a big mistake . . . “
Age ain't nothing but a number to a certain extent.
Blurred lines anyone
@@genius179my absolute favorite version of Would- those notes he hits are immaculate
Very surprising to watch this whole video and see absolutely no mention of Chester Bennington. Lots of his songs predicted his eventual suicide, but I think none more so than “given up.” I love that song but simply can’t enjoy it any more now, given the context. He was literally screaming out, telling us what he was going to do and we just missed it until it was too late
Ikr! And besides Linkin Park songs, they also didn’t add “Daddy”, and “Thoughtless” by Korn.
And “515” by Slipknot.
"Leave out all the rest" as well that song hits different now
That needs to be in PART 2
Bleed it Out
Waiting for a light that never comes, will forever be sadness to me. I love the song but it gives the name a whole new meaning…
Queen has a couple of songs that fit this topic. Who Wants to Live Forever was recorded for the Highlander soundtrack a few years before Freddie Mercury's untimely death. The other is "The Show Must Go On" which was the last song Freddie ever recorded as the 12th and final song for their album Innuendo. The band then released it as a single 6 weeks before Freddie died.
Those Were The Days Of Our Lives. Gets me sobbing every time. What a goodbye.
@@raigrant680 and the song mother love D:
You mean Freddy Mercury...
My thoughts
It’s the “My mind’s telling me no but my body’s tellin’ me yes” line in R. Kelly’s Bump ‘N Grind that smacks SOO differently now!! He was cognizant of the fact that what he was doing was wrong but he did it anyway. His confession was right in front of our eyes but we still didn’t see!
Poor Amy, God rest her soul, was so beautifully tragic. “And I tread a troubled track, My odds are stacked, I'll go back to black” broke my heart a bit for her because he had a familiar love so she knew their love would never be full time. After she transitioned, hearing her desperation and sadness singing, “We only said goodbye with words. I died a hundred times. You go back to her and I go back to black” was and still is heart wrenching.
It’s not a popular song or even known outside of MJ fans… but Morphine by Michael Jackson. The bridge is about a particular drug that was one of the key drugs that killed him.
Demeral...smh 😢
@@Duchess8705 yup! It took me a while to notice he was singing it as if he were other people reacting to learning that he was taking it and how worried they were for him. And this was a decade before his death!!
Yess morphine is damn good mention “Money” was a good one too
@@Duchess8705dermeral, dermeral oh god hes taking dermeral
😭
Prince's "Let's Go Crazy." He keeps talking about the "elevator" bringing us down...and then he died in an elevator. *chills*
Don't forget "Sometimes It Snows in April." It's a song about Tricky losing Christopher Tracy (see "Under the Cherry Moon" for further clarification). Prince passed away in April. As much as I love that song as well as "Let's Go Crazy," those facts were never lost upon me.
OMG! Yeah! I listened to it several times because it was a catchy song. Little did I know that Prince would die in an elevator. 😳
Prince also sings a song called I would die 4 U.... April = 4th month an the letter U= 21st letter in the alphabet. Prince died on 4/21/2016
It was about Satan not an actual elevator
@@MsNotzi That's a really good movie.
'Fell on Black Days ' by Soundgarden. It breaks my heart that people feel so alone in their own head.
After Prince died, I had a hard time listening to "Sometimes it snows in April." The first line mentions a long fought civil war. Makes me think of the fight he had with his record label.
"Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley gets me. Especially, when you consider the early death of his father as well.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's song "Freebird"
What about freebird?🤨
While Jeff's cover is amazing...it was written by Leonard Cohen ❤
@ThePanther21 the first lyrics are if I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me. It's like when they performed and killed in plane crash afterwards
Hallelujah was written by Leonard Cohen.
@welcometothemovies9157 Thank you. Clearly, you understand to context because you know their history. Also because of that crash and out of respect, I skip the song they recorded entitled "That Smell."
You should have DEFINITELY included LINKIN PARK in this list! 💯🙌 Chester was literally expressing all the pain he was experiencing through his songs!
Here are some examples:
IN THE END, NUMB, CRAWLING, LOST, ONE STEP CLOSER, FIGHTING MYSELF and ONE MORE LIGHT! Plus, there are TONS more!
Yeah I cried when they released “Lost”.
Yes!! And SOMEWHERE I BELONG, BREAKING THE HABIT, GIVEN UP, WHAT I’VE DONE, etc.
How did you guys forget about R. Kelly's "Piss On You"?? He even made a remix of it.
hahaah you foo, gunna go watch that remix right now again
@@matthewsinclair507 😂😂😂
right? they chose a song that's kinda generic horny club jams instead of the actual creepy shit
That's not a real song just a joke from Dave Chappelle show.
@@Thespeedrap 🙄Duh
Dreaming of You by Selena, Peach by IU, and Goblin by Sulli. Dreaming of You because Selena had so much to experience in her life and we all knew she most likely wanted a baby with her husband Chris Perez, listening to that song gives me so many good feelings but also so sad after knowing the album she recorded before her death. Both Peach and Goblin are about the late Kpop idol singer, Sulli. Peach is by a good friend of Sulli, Lee Jieun (IU), who wrote this song from the perspective of a man falling in love with her best friend; a beautiful song dedicated to a friend and you can tell that Sulli was a person with a beautiful soul after reading the lyrics written by IU (who knew her personally). As for Goblin, is one of Sulli's last songs recorded before her passing which seems to be about her difficulty in navigating fame, is just so sad viewing the song in that manner knowing Sulli was relentlessly bullied online by netizens and was always criticized by the Korean tabloids. In the Goblin mv intro and outro, it seems that Sulli subtly suggests that she is suicidal and it breaks my heart knowing that she did end her own life
“Scared of the Dark”, a song that marked Peter Parker’s death in Into the Spider-Verse was one of XXXTentacion’s last songs, and once you know that, and you watch the scene (especially with one of Stan Lee’s last cameos at the end)…as someone who doesn’t really cry at sad moments in film, that scene always has me tear up. It’s like Spidey died right alongside his creator and one of the people who helped bring one of the best adaptations of his story to life.
The fact y’all didn’t say anything about Tupac or Biggie’s many foreshadowings is kinda wild
Especially in the song changes. He literally foresaw his own demise
Pac talked about death a lot. He knew his death was coming,sadly.
@@demondsims5411he manifested his death.
The Ain’t Mad at Cha video especially
So many options…
How can you not have linkin park/Chester Bennington on here, honestly just pick a song.
Numb
“What I’ve Done” is another suggestion for a song by Linkin Park for this list.
Somewhere I Belong
@@Jeremiah_Rivers76 that's the one I think of the most, it just feels like he's saying goodbye.
Given up
I can't believe its been 30 years since Kurt Cobain died. 😢
*was murdered
@@aaronholter1911facts
Yeah, it still hurts. It still stings when I hear that song and gives me pause, and I have to say to myself or out loud, "may he find peace.😢
The day the music died, volume 2
Good lord. How did I get this old.
Aint no way chuck berry had people singing with "i wanna play with your ding a ling" and people actually sang along 💀💀💀
Thought I was the only one who was tripped out lolol
Never been to public school have you?
I think this was the first case in history where a black man tricked white america into singing something they had no business singing lol the other time what yin yang twins and lil jon skeet skeet skeet Dave Chappelle said it in his show "My God what have we done?!" lmao if you know you know
He is a legend for a reason.
At first I was going to say that "ding a ling" probably didn't have the some connotations back in the 70s, but just looked it up and it did 😲. Certain radio stations banned the song but many people loved it and it reached number 1 on the charts
“Your music is like the soundtrack to a vasectomy!” Freddie Mercury
You’re in the pocket of the mafia and everybody knows
- Freddie Mercury (not really)
Nice Peter of ERB, actually...
I listened to Black Sabbath during my vasectomy. Does anyone care? Probably not.
It’s almost like people write songs about the things they know and feel. Imagine that.
Pretty wild 🙃
"Sometimes it Snows in April" by Prince is hard for me as a fan. The song is about the lost of a close friend who died unexpectedly. Prince died in April of 2016.
I have a friend who is a doppelganger of Prince😮
When it comes to R. Kelly songs that aged poorly, I'd pick "Age Ain't Nothing But a Number."
Rehab. It’s not a double meaning it’s a literal meaning.
“Fly Now” by GWAR is dedicated to the memory of their late guitarist Cory Smoot, who died of a drug overdose. It was also the final song by frontman Dave Brockie…who died of a drug overdose.
How is Aaliyah's age ain't nothing but a number not on here?
Probably because he was behind the song, not the one singing it. But agree, 100%
Aliyah and R Kelly was married when she was 14
Because they mentioned R.Kelly he wrote that song...
I would love to hear P. Diddy‘s next song “I need a lawyer part 9000”!
Or I don't need a girl no more............................
@@TopCat2021 do you think that P. Diddy is gay or was gay at some point?
@@goodcommunitylife I don't know but he won't be needing a woman in prison.
And “I need a lawyer part 9001”
@@goodcommunitylife I believe he’s a predator.
He did things to Aaron Carter, Justin Bieber and even Usher and God knows who else.
Hope Diddy goes to prison for the evil he did.
You guys have got to do a part 2.
Culture Club's catalog of music. Everything from "Karma Chameleon" to "Move Away" were George's words to drummer Jon Moss.
Hmm
True!
Bohemian Rhapsody, AND
Don't stop me now. RIP Freddy.
Plus "Who Wants To Live Forever"
@@caronstout354 I feel like crying every time I hear "Who Wants to Live Forever." I once asked my mom to please skip that part of the tribute concert at Wembley because of it.
Freddie
Honorable mention Bad Fish by Sublime. I get emotional every time Brad Knowles sings "Ain't got no quarrels with god, Ain't got no time to grow old"
John Denver, I am leaving on a jetplane dont know if I'll be back again.
-He died in a planecrash.
Whatever by Our Lady Peace brings me chills because it was the theme song of former WWE wrestler Chris Benoit who killed his wife and son before killing himself.
Chris was innocent- look at arm Anderson’s promo foreshadowing consequences for running of with Kevin Sullivan’s wife. Also he was supposedly flirting with Michelle mcool
If that doesn’t do it for you look into it.
"One Step Closer" by Linkin Park should have at least been an honorable mention
edit: Also, "Age Ain't Nothin' But a Number", sung by 15 year old Aaliyah, written & produced by R Kelly
Or last light
Or any of the other songs by Linkin Park. NUMB, SOMEWHERE I BELONG, BREAKING THE HABIT, IN THE END, GIVEN UP, CRAWLING, and many more!
Dead By X-Mas from Hanoi Rocks is definitely a chilling song as it foreshadowed drummer Razzle's death on December 8, 1984. Literally just two years after the song's release.
The r kelly song should have been "remix to ignition".
Think about it... "poppin fresh out the kitchen" (meaning she is young) "got every man in here wishin" (that she was 18) "sippin on coke n rum, I'm like so what I'm drunk, its the freakin weekend, baby Ima have me some fun" (do I need to elaborate?)
Honourable mention Morphine by Michael Jackson .
Yes! Or They Don’t Really Care About Us.
Can’t say any R Kelly songs because we all knew back then
Truth!
Funny af
@RhyperiorRanger. The public didn’t know, but All the celebs knew about R Kelly.
I mean there was a joke about R Kelly at the 2002 VMA’s, the host “joked” about R Kelly being interested in then 15/16 year old Olsen Twins.
Danget. I believe I can fly” is such a pretty song
@@NuMetalfan1996 I dispute that. The public knew. I remember being 15 or 16 years old in 1996 wondering how he got away with marrying a 15 year old.
The most disturbing thing about all this is that the songs that we listen to everyday on the radio, at work, background noise in a store etc. are really just cries for help from the artists or a window into their disturbed life. The music world is a dark place indeed.
Exactly, & nobody pays attention! They think it’s just entertainment smh.
Murder on My Mind by YNG Melly.
Because it was discovered that song is indeed a real life fact: he killed one of his bros
I look at Age Ain't Nothin' But a Nimber by Aliyah. That one always hits different.
Alice In Chains-Nutshell. Also Mad Season-Wake Up.
Nutshell unplugged should be #1
😢 Layne was such a tragic character that should have been so much more. Man I've still yet to hear another vocalist literally show his pain through his voice. With Staley? You could literally hear it from him. So heartbreaking for me.
Was thinking of Alice In Chains
The very first songs that I heard from LPARK were
IN THE END AND NUMB ~ they resonated with me and I FELT he was in pain ~ yet I didn’t even know who he was or the band! 🥺😢
Breaking the habit. Scared the shit of me, as a teenager. I didn't speak English back then so it was the video, the voice and the fast rhythm that all together left me... disturbed?
@@mariarossa13 I just went and watched the video. You were right, it’s definitely ‘disturbing’. There’s a few ways to interpret what it means but it definitely resonates with you.
Elliott Smith’s entire discography, basically. Edit: not for being creepy but for being tragic. Still don’t have a problem listening to them, though ❤
Just imagine if Amy Winehouse and Adele did a song together.
More like Adele and lady gaga
My dingALing … “ THIS SONG IS OVER!”
😂
Mojo went up and posted my whole playlist as a list, damn
So many artist id love to know where they’d be today if they were still alive.
Already wasn’t a big fan of R Kelly or Diddy but it is tough to listen to the songs I did like. I Believe I Can Fly is probably the hardest because I grew up in the 90s with Space Jam and it’s a nostalgic song.
Michael Jordan's still okay, right? Just think of it as a Michael Jordan anthem. It's a great song, no matter who sings it.
@@Lammy4ever7 I guess, but that also means turning a blind eye to the crimes of the man who sang it. It’s one thing if you already have the song from a CD or something, but since I don’t, I’m sure he still gets royalties for it. I’m not really willing to listen to any other version because those aren’t the ones that feel nostalgic.
To each their own. I’m not gonna tell anyone what they should or shouldn’t do here. When things like this happens, it makes consuming that individuals art complicated. You might not be ok with what the artist did, but you like their work, and at the same time, don’t want to support them. Many times people make exceptions depending on how much they loved a song regardless of the crime. But with others they may be more willing to take the loss and not support an artist at all.
It’s just very complicated and complex.
They said puffy was raided at the end of 23. But that shit just happened. Like a month ago.
There's a dozen Mac Miller songs with more weight. He was always open about internal strife
He was a terrible singer. I just don't know how anyone listens to that garbage.
The words "Put me out of my misery" from Chester Bennington hit differently these days.
Look at your game girl, was redone by Guns N Roses, on the Spaghetti Incident album.
and that version is pretty awesome with Axl Rose unique voice and messed up demeanor
Yeah, it was a good cover. The Spaghetti Incident was a cover album, pretty good. But my favorite cover GnR ever did was Aerosmith's Mama Kin, on the OG EP Live Like A Suicide which later was side one of GnR Lies.
People use the song 'I don't like Monday's' as a bit of a throw away tune, but it was written about Brenda Spencer who killed all those children in the 70' s. I thought this should have had a nod on this list. Great all the same, Watch Mojo
"I am the Warrior" by SCANDAL was the song playing on a boombox while James Oliver Huberty opened fire in a crowded McDonald’s restaurant in San Ysidro, California, killing 21 people and wounding 19 others with several semi-automatic weapons. Minutes earlier, Huberty had left home, telling his wife, “I’m going hunting…hunting for humans.”
I was 16 when that happened. Im 56 now, and STILL switch that song off when it plays on the radio.
I remember it driving me crazy when so few ppl seemed to have a problem with RKelly and Aliyah. We knew what kind of man he was early on and didnt seem to care. I worked in a group home that was religious based and 'I believe i can fly' was a huge song sung atbevery talent show, shool event, everywhere. It absolutely disgusted me especially since most of our girls had been sexually abused.
“Pumped up kicks” by “Foster the people “ is a pretty disturbing song, especially when you know it was about a school shooting. But I think it teaches us all when we’re at school you be nice to the quiet kid in the trenchcoat.
I agree ☝️
Learned that and immediately took it off my music list
@@jennifer_m.8613it actually has a deep meaning behind it!
@@jennifer_m.8613It’s disturbing but it was actually made to raise awareness for the rise of school shootings the band has a nice interview talking about it
i hear this over and over about how disturbing the song is. There is nothing disturbing about the song. Absolutely nothing. It's about a school shooting. The song itself is not disturbing.
Alice in Chains' Unplugged gig - pick any song but for me it's Down in a Hole. Layne's performance has been described as a man singing at his own funeral, which I think is apt. Haunting and beautiful at the same time.
Jeremy by Pearl Jam is a rough one to listen to, imo. Not for anything PJ related, but because of the two real stories that were the inspiration for the song.
Everybody knew who R Kelly really was but kept quiet and kept making music with him. So removing him from songs was just to save face when ish hit the fan.
Nice that you mentioned Ian Curtis.
Prince: “Sometimes it Snows in April.”
I always cry when "Time In A Bottle" plays! 😢
SOS by rinnana is a good example for this list
"Kiss It Better' reduces me to tears every time. I don't know for certain if she's singing about her toxic relationship with Chris Brown - but I've been there. There's that someone you know is not right for you long term - but no other can take you to those places between the sheets. Who feels it knows it.
SOS was released before she was with Chris brown by the way
Please make a part 2 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺❤️
Linkin Park - In The End
Britney Spears' "Overprotected"
I think of all the dirty songs R Kelly sings is him being inappropriate age relationships. Can’t listen to him anymore.
Don't forget "Tainted Love", covered by Soft Cell.
I can't even listen to the Space Jam song.
@@stevencooke6451 I was at a funeral and they played I believe I can fly and just gross.
You are really deep 🙄
@@miszjackson7957 you a child rapist too?? Why the eye roll?
Ricardo Arjona released "Mesias en Nueva York" (Messiah in New York) in 2000 and was then question by the FBI a year later. The lyrics are just too eerie after 9/11.
Morphine by Michael jackson.
"Relax, this won't hurt you, before I put it in, close your eyes and count to ten"....
Linkin Park was the first band I ever saw in concert. I still remember the goosebumps I felt hearing Chester sing Crawling. I knew in that moment he wrote the lyrics to that song from personal experience.
Hungry Like A Wolf because of Diane Downs
Really!? Elaborate!!!
@@nadineo9436Diana Downs admitted she was listening to the song while driving and shooting her kids and the court played the song as evidence she was apparently singing it to herself and bobing her head to it
Lazarus by David Bowie?
He already knew he was dieing. It's not foreshadowing if you already know the outcome m
@@ASMR-Arboretum I mean, he knew, but we didn't
@@ASMR-Arboretum So I guess that excludes anything from Queen's last few albums then?
According to Tony Visconti, his producer, he knew he was terminally ill but thought he would be around long enough to do at least one other album and was talking about it just before he passed. So it wasn't supposed to be the last one but unfortunately it was.
"Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy....". Ke$ha foreshadowing?
Love how now when she perfoms it live she says "f*ck P Diddy)
@@maffieduranshe knew, I'm sure they know and participate in it

She herself is a survivor of ab*se from another producer who has avoided jail somehow
“Everytime” by Britney Spears. It may still be about Justin Timberlake but after learning about Britney losing a baby, the apology lyrics plus the lullaby instrumental plus the music video the references a relationship breaking down, paparazzi saturation, and even a references to death, baptism, and reincarnation. The song and video I now interpret it to have a double meaning. One interpretation much darker than the other.
Didn't Mozart write his requiem while he was dying? 😔
Don’t know if y’all know this but it was actually I Need a Girl Pt. 1 that has the line about brothers.
How Janie's Got a Gun doesn't make this list is beyond me.
Tyler says his own memoir he “almost took a teen bride” and that “her parents fell in love with me, signed a paper over for me to have custody, so I wouldn’t get arrested if I took her out of state. I took her on tour with me.” He also says “She was sixteen, she knew how to nasty, and there wasn’t a hair on it,” and “With my bad self being twenty-six and she barely old enough to drive and sexy as hell, I just fell madly in love with her. She was a cute skinny little tomboy dressed up as Little Bo Peep. She was my heart’s desire, my partner in crimes of passion.”
It makes sense why when reading an article about the possible causes of gun violence the first place his mind went was a pedophile getting a just end, probably his greatest fear.
R Kelly has a song with his group 'Public Announcement' called "She's Got that Vibe." At the end, he names sexy women or women with a "vibe." He says "little cute Aaliyah's got it." This song was made in 1991. Aaliyah was 12. She was born in 1979.
Very chilling smh
Sunflower by Swae Lee is a great song. Was supposed to be my wedding song. But my boyfriend passed away suddenly. Now it's bittersweet for me.
0:21 Should've included ALL of his songs. I can't even watch Space Jam, a movie I used to love, anymore because it'll make me sick to my stomach knowing he's involved
Felt the same about finding nemo since ellen
I’ve always preferred the acoustic original of “I Took a Pill in Ibiza” over the dance remix because I feel like it got the point across much better.
I'm generally not a fan of dance remixes in general.
I prefer the remix tbh my personal taste
The two that hit hardest for me:
Building a Mystery by Sarah MacLachlan
Superman (It's not Easy) by Five for Fighting.
Both of those were the first songs I heard after my parents' passings. Superman especially because my father passed away.
Building a Mystery is kind of... amazing because I'm learning a lot about who I am thanks to my mother's passing.
Oh and a song I can't listen to when I'm depressed is Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR.
“Fuck 22 we ain’t making it making it past 21” hits hard when you realize that Juice only lived for 21 years
No mention of Gary Glitter's "Do You Wanna Touch Me? (Oh Yeah)"?
We do not speak of that monster, but still, it fits into the list
ACDC little lover mentions Glitter
Gale King "Robert" 😅
“Time In A Bottle” was released after Jim Croce’s untimely death and thus was a posthumous #1 hit song on the Billboard Hot 100.
Jeff Buckley's 'Grace'. In particular, the lyrics 'It's my time coming, I'm not afraid... afraid to die'. And though 'Last Goodbye' does seem to be about a relationship breakdown originally, it has become something else now.
The lines about running to the phone, oh man I cry everytime!
"Dead Man's Curve" by Jan and Dean?
Can’t listen to sometimes is snows in April since Prince’s untimely death on April 21 ,2016 😢😢😢
What about Let's go Crazy elevator breaks us down and he dies in a elevator😵💫🤨
I'm glad WatchMojo acknowledged Joy Division. While many songs on Unknown Pleasures are indicative of Ian's eventual spiral, every song on Closer is basically a secret letter to everyone listening that he didn't have much longer. New Dawn Fades is a great song, but the rehersal for the never released track "In A Lonely Place" made it very clear what his intentions were, especially being recorded just four days before we lost Ian.
