10 Songs That End On Really Depressing Notes

9. Someone Like You - Adele

Depressing songs are what Adele does, and there aren't many that could do it better than her. Throughout her career she has quickly become an expert in telling stories that will make you cry, no matter how many times you hear them, with a simply stunning voice.

There are almost too many Adele songs to choose from for this list, but Someone Like You is the most emotional out of them all. The singer pours her heart into the lyrics of this incredible song, opening up and making herself vulnerable.

She sings to a man she loved more than anything in this world, who she gave her life to, and who wouldn't give his back. The two broke up and while Adele herself struggled to move on and get through the hard time in her life, he had no trouble moving on and finding someone else.

It's one of the most heartfelt lyrical performances, and Adele herself has been known to break down into tears after singing the song life. It's a depressing thought after all, that while sometimes love lasts, sometimes it doesn't.
