A Song About Being Sad

A Song About Being Sad

Rex Orange County

This song, as the title would suggest, is a sad song. Throughout the entirety of the song, rex recounts past love and the torment it put him through. As it progresses, it becomes evident that this was an unrequited love that rex tried to receive back, but never did. He tells the song in a unique way, alternating between speaking to the audience, giving advice to her future suitors, and to his lost love.
