- Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men, "One Sweet Day" “Sorry I never told you / All I wanted to say.” Sometimes there are things we wish we had said to our loved ones.
- Beyoncé, "I Miss You" A deep cut from 4, “I Miss You” is an 808-driven R&B ballad co-written by Frank Ocean, who mellows Beyoncé’s untamed aggressiveness heard on “Run the World (Girls)” and conjures up a heartfelt vulnerability in her poised vocal performance.

I’ll Be Missing You is a tribute to rapper Notorious B.I.G. (who was shot to death in 1997). Big Poppa was a good friend of Puff Daddy (known as P. Diddy now) and they appeared together on the track ‘Mo Money, Mo Problems’, a superb song about money. The track samples The Police’s “Every Breath You Take”.

‘Thinkin’ Bout You’ is a sweet song about missing that special someone. Speculation is rife about who the other person is.

Another classic song about missing someone after a breakup, and wanting to rekindle an old love. “Ever since you went away, every hour of every day, I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy.” It turns out she’s still in love with her ex. She convinces herself all she needs is “just one night, and we’ll have that magic feeling like we used to do...
