[IIL] I Will by Mitski, Halah by Mazzy Star, Once More to See You by Mitski
lowk i need songs that make me feel like I Will by mitski if someone has any:
Ok this is so specific but i need songs where the singer is basically begging the person they love not to go even though they already knows it's over. like theyre pleading anyway even though they know there is no saving it. I Will by mitski is THE song for this, it's everything to me.
They have to be talking to their lover directly, not looking back on it after. and no anger and bitterness or like "I'm better off" and DEFINITELY no making peace with it. Highkey just soft miserable devotion where she'd give anything for a little more time. i also like it quiet and kind of hushed (big belty ballads or upbeat songs kill it for me)
lyrics matter way more than sound here btw, that's why spotify radio isn't helping lol
Here are some examples that work:
-once more to see you, first love late spring (mitski, loml)
-anything (adrianne lenker)
-halah (mazzy star)
-cinnamon girl (lana)
-all i ask + don't you remember (adele)
-hoax, tis the damn season, nyd (taylor)
(something by julien baker but it doesnt fit my description lol, same thing with please stay by lucy dacus)
I know the songs i mentioned are too basic but highkey I cannot think of more and it is driving me mad lol
stuff that are close but not it: moon song and tolerate it have too much anger underneath, silver springs is too vengeful, you're losing me is more looking back, easy on me and begged feel like acceptance, and i have nothing/un-break my heart are the right feeling but way too ballad-y
female artists pls, and i already know all the lana and billie songs so skip those 😭 tysm!!
