That one song.

[ShortieCx]

Listening to Pandora as always. There is always that one song that reminds me of a friend I lost. Every time it plays, I remember the day I last saw him. For six years this song has been able to make me cry. I was wondering if anyone else has a song that reminds them of someone in their life.

Hey @ShortieCx -- So sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. I feel like we all have certain songs that remind us of a specific person or moment in time. The song by Wiz Khalifa - See You Again is one of the songs that makes me emotional when thinking about the loss of my grandfather and a few close friends that didn't make it to today.

I hope you're staying strong and that the music is helping you cope with your loss. Your Pandora Community family is always here for you as well.  Thanks for taking the time to share such an intimate and personal experience/song.

So sorry for your loss Shortie. I lost my Grandmother 20 years ago, it was a difficult loss. Christmas time, I was listening to a song by John Schmidt of the Piano guys, he dedicated to his daughter Ann,”The Sweetest Gift”.

ShortieCx sorry to hear about your friend. Losing a friend sometimes has a greater impact on us then others, every loss is a great loss, but friends can be the hardest of losses. I actually have two songs that remind me of those I lost and still remember. My first is a song my dad loved, it is by George Jones "He Stopped Loving Her Today." https://pandora.app.link/GI92cEw6q8 . The second song reminds me of the first girl I had given my heart too. This song is by Journey "Faithfully." https://pandora.app.link/EcrQGQB6q8 . I added the links to these two songs in case you would be interested in listening to them. Take care and stay safe.

Hello @ErickPandora 

That is one song that I think everyone relates too. It was one of the songs his family chose to play at the funeral. Jeff Williams - Red Like Roses - Part II is the song that reminds me of him. Knowing it is about a daughter and her mother doesn't change that for some reason. Both are beautiful songs. I am doing a lot better now then I had been. Music helps me through everything. Thank you for sharing as well.

Thank you @joemd1960. I am sorry for yours as well. Losing family is never easy.

@MOHLovesAlaska I agree. Sometimes losing a friend is a harder loss to bear. His was the hardest loss I have encountered. That is my own fault. I have such a high opinion of him and placed him on such a high pedestal. He saved my life once, so when he lost his own it took a lot out of me. It crushed all of us. I will definitely listen to both. Especially since they mean this much to you. Thank you for sharing! I hope things are well with you.

All I Want For Christmas. A loved one went away the day right before Christmas break. We dated for a month or so, and it sucked to have her leave. She was all i wanted for Christmas...

Music is the cure. 

[ShortieCx]

I am terribly sorry that you had to go through that. I hope things have gotten better. If not then I hope they do. It is never easy losing someone you love.

Yeah I'm alright now. Heart of steel. Thanks. Same to you.
