The first entry on this list is perhaps the most famous regret song of all time. The Beatles‘ “Yesterday,” composed and written by Paul McCartney, is a moving ballad about the end of a relationship. McCartney’s mellow vocals are set against a melancholic string quartet and acoustic guitar. This understated arrangement emphasizes the raw despair of ...
The next song on our list, by The Jackson 5, offers an opposing approach to regret. Whereas “Yesterday” is somber and lowkey, “I Want You Back” is a maximalist Motown tune that infuses an ironic joy into regret. Sung by an adolescent Michael Jackson, “I Want You Back” captures the exuberant energy of begging for a lover to return to you. He express...
Our next song, Nine Inch Nails‘ “Hurt,” is perhaps the most visceral song about regret on this list. With instrumentals that cross eerie strings with industrial rock distortion, the song is haunting enough without even listening to the lyrics. But if you attend to the melancholic lyrics, your experience of the song will go up a notch. The moody, an...
The next entry on our list is a song that mentions “regret” in the form of “I’m sorry.” Weezer‘s “Butterfly” is an emotional dirge set against the backdrop of a simple acoustic guitar. “Butterfly” culminates the emotional arc of Pinkerton. This album sees each song’s speaker struggling to establish healthy human connections. In this case, the singe...
Going back to songs of emotionally intense regret, we find “u” one of the central tracks from Kendrick Lamar‘s smash-hit album To Pimp a Butterfly. “u” begins with Lamar screaming intensely, and the energy only ramps up from there. He intermingles immaculately constructed verses with sniffing, crying, and screaming. He also laments his failures and...
Some regrets eat into our souls, but most of the time, we have mixed feelings. Do we really regret them, or do we simply regret the consequences? OutKast‘s “Ms. Jackson” channels this exact feeling into a mixture of remorse and rollicking fun. In the song, “Ms. Jackson” is the mother of the singer’s ex. He confesses that he did not intend to cause ...
Being the undisputed queen of relationship postmortem should be included in Taylor Swift‘s resume, at least in the world of music. Usually, her songs are expressions of anger or rage after being jilted by a lover. But “Back to December” flips the script. In the song, the singer laments the cruelty with which she ended a relationship. She regrets re...
If there is a Mount Olympus for songs of regret, “Cat’s in the Cradle” belongs in one of the highest godly thrones. The song is Harry Chapin‘s essential entry in the folk rock genre, but it is also one of the canonical odes to regret. The song narrates the experience of a father who does not make time to spend with his son from birth. As the boy gr...
Rapper Kendrick Lamarknows regret too well that two of his songs appear on this list. “Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst” parallels “u” in that it comes at the emotional low point of its album. But the similarities stop there. “u” is an intimate trip into Lamar’s experience of stardom. But “Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst” is a panorama of his ...
With a mesmerizing melody and an iconic music video, Britney Spears‘s “Oops!…I Did it Again” is a pop culture classic. But listen closely and you’ll realize that the song is occupied with the ambivalence of regret. In the song, the singer laments that she has broken his heart, continuing a long-term pattern of doing so. Though she is not as innocen...
