By Syeda Yousra Khalid: Sad already? Well, maybe we have been planning to make you cry too!
So as we know, thereâs music to make you feel energized, to make you angry, to boost up your confidence and then thereâs music that gets you weeping! Our talented musicians seem to be experts in finding out what captivates our emotional Pakistani awaamâs attention more. And guess what; the answer has always been sad lyrics!
Every artist knows that the moods change drastically upon hearing any type of music, especially when they come up with a story that seems to be too familiar with our current situation. Focusing on this fact, we have listed five songs that can turn out to be a tearjerker for you!
*Keep tissue box handy*
The fact that its winters and December is coming up, so yeah, it deserves to be first on our list. Imagine itâs a bitterly cold rainy winter night when youâre alone in your home and the boy next door plays December?
OMG, someone needs to console me!!
Abrar, who is famous for his bhangra music has one of the most depressing melodies to make the December extraordinary saddening! For people who have lost someone in their life can totally relate to the song.
So if you recently had a break up you canât get over, I would suggest you to skip this song and listen to Aithay Rakh instead.
If this wonât make you cry, nothing will. This is the most well-known song by âSoch the bandâ as it has been on everybodyâs lips since its release.
‘Awari’ was originally themed on how girls feel about the entire thing when theyâre forced and tortured to do something against their will. It compels you to feel the unpleasant moments of those who instead of publicizing their pain, hides it instead.
3. Sanu Ik Pal By Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Itâs a known fact that King of Qawaal touches our hearts like no one else. Your emotions are triggered with the powerful lyrics of this heart breaking song and your mind gets diverted towards someone you miss incredibly.
It  resurfaces difficult emotions. Many singers have been covering this deep Punjabi poetry but off course nothing can be compared to Nusrat fateh ali khanâs soulful voice.
4. Ansoo Ali azmat
This song needs no introduction as itâs a soundtrack of immensely popular drama, âAnsooâ. It goes with the dramaâs story line as well as making it easy for the listeners to create meaning based on their own life. Its lyrics mainly focuses on the moments that you always wanted to experience but couldnât.
If you feel like sobbing over the first shoulder you find after hearing this, immediately switch listening to ‘Pappu Yaar‘.
This ghazal isnât actually heart breaking but mainly goes for focusing on the saddening reality checks. âHar Zulmâ makes you feel nostalgic, sad and strong, all at the same time.. No doubt Sajjad Ali has done great justice to it.
Our best solution for this depressing moment is for you to give ear to âKirkir KirKirâ.
So this winter, you have all the reasons to curl up in blanket, play these songs and make your pillows wet. Keep visiting Taazi to change your moods by choosing our not-so-sad curated playlist!
