Some of the sad love songs in this collection have the capacity to make you cry, and may even help you mend a broken heart after a breakup. A handful of '90s classics (Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You," Toni Braxton's "Un-Break My Heart") and R&B; hits are on the list, as are sweeter numbers that would be at home on a Valentine's Day playlist if you're spending the holiday solo. Many sift through the rubble of past relationships (Drake's "Marvin's Room," Lauryn Hill's "Ex-Factor"), while others are about the momentary relief of connection, even if you know it's not with the right person (Sam Smith's "Stay With Me," Bonnie Raitt's, "I Can't Make You Love Me"). And emotional classics by Joni Mitchell, Carole King, and Fleetwood Mac prove that while sonic style and songwriting changes over the decades, the raw feeling of heartbreak will always be relatable.

Adele is the patron saint of powerhouse ballads, and "Someone Like You" ranks up there with her very best. Adele's voice can soar on top of a 30-piece orchestra, but here she's accompanied by a simple piano part as she addresses an ex who has moved on and found new love.
The intra-band romantic drama that fueled Fleetwood Mac's historic Rumors record is well documented, but even before its 1977 release, they were penning love songs that stuck to your ribs. One such track was "Landslide," a gorgeous, lilting showcase for singer Stevie Nicks about how love, in all its forms, never stays static.
The title track of Lizzo's breakout album sees the multitalented musician indulging her inner diva. From the opening line, she's belting as powerfully as she ever has, channeling the spirit of Aretha and Whitney. Much of Lizzo's music explores her own sense of self-worth and independence, but on "Cuz I Love You" she opens up about what she'll do for love.
Sam Smith has written plenty of songs about the bluer side of romance, but their hit single "Stay With Me" goes to a different place. The track is somewhere between booze-fueled longing and sober honesty. Smith knows that the connection they share with the song's subject is nothing like true love, but still a favorable alternative to isolation.
With the help of producer Salaam Remi, Amy Winehouse made "Tears Dry on Their Own," a modern spin on the long lineage of Motown's sad love songs. It even flips Marvin Gaye and Tami Terrell's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough."

Beyoncé set aside the delicate love songs with "Irreplaceable," a chart-topping ode to knowing your worth and not letting anyone try to lower it. The song plays as a prelude to some of her meatier work on Beyoncé and Lemonade, and sees her sending an unfaithful former flame out the door expeditiously.
Few A-listers are as good at lost love ballads as Bruno Mars, who has topped charts and made eyes water with songs like "Talking to the Moon," "It Will Rain," and "When I Was Your Man." The latter is perhaps the best of the lot, inspired by '70s piano ballads like The Commodores' "Still," and featuring one of Mars' most searing hooks.
Say Anything's "Alive With the Glory of Love" bristles not just with the urgency and desperation of young love, but because of its chilling backdrop. The song is about the relationship between singer Max Bemis' grandparents, who are Holocaust survivors, and their time hiding from the nazis.
Most somber love songs come from a singular perspective: I'm hurt. I don't love you anymore. I don't want to be alone. What makes Gotye and Kimbra's "Somebody That I Used to Know" so singular and enduring is that it offers both perspectives on a failed relationship, shifting vantage points in the middle to remind us that even though we may demonize an ex, we're rarely free of blame.
Some sad love songs are grand and sweeping, but Billie Eilish's "when the party's over" cuts in the complete other direction. With hundreds of layers of vocal harmonies and Eilish's trademark hushed tones, the song feels like it's being sung into your ear from two inches away.
