Adele, "Hello"

Adele, "Hello"

Be honest, this song has made you cry at least a thousand tiiiiiiiimes. All hail Adele, queen of heartbreak. Long may she reign.

Real AF lyric: "I must have called a thousand times / To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done / But when I call you never seem to be home"

Jazmine Sullivan, "Forever Don't Last"

Jazmine Sullivan, "Forever Don't Last"

Like "Hello," Jazmine Sullivan's "Forever Don't Last" is a tearjerker ballad sung by a powerhouse vocalist. Unlike "Hello," "Forever Don't Last" doesn't try to whisk the listener away to a world of heightened emotions and melodrama. It trusts that warm, intimate, human-scaled drama is enough.

Real AF lyric: "And I tried to believe that we could make it / But trying don't work, so I just have to face that forever / Doesn't last too long these days"

Demi Lovato, "Stone Cold"

Demi Lovato, "Stone Cold"

"Stone Cold" is, hands down, the saddest song ever written about fiddling with your phone to avoid an uncomfortable situation. Demi Lovato takes a common, not particularly high-stakes situation — faking a text to avoid interacting with your ex — and imbues it with real seriousness and desperation.

Real AF lyric: "Give me the truth, me and my heart / We'll make it through / If happy is her, I'm happy for you"

Hollywood Records / Island Records

Troye Sivan, "Lost Boy"

Troye Sivan, "Lost Boy"

Troye Sivan’s “Lost Boy” is a glittery, synth-pop anthem for kids who are "too young to give in to forever," but still feel bad about the way they ended things.

Real AF lyric: "Yeah we knew from the beginning / That this wasn't never ending / Shouldn't stay too long / 'Cause we're both too young / To give into forever"
