“Trouble With Forever” by Little Big Town
“Trouble With Forever” by Little Big Town from the album Nightfall, released in 2020
Sometimes you just need to feel sad. After my 2022, I understand that better. So, without too much fanfare or explanation, I will only say that “Trouble With Forever” is one — if not the — saddest song I’ve ever heard. Love may be a beautiful human construct (far more beautiful than that abomination time) but it is also painful and, at times, ugly.
Little Big Town, a country band that isn’t nearly as popular as it deserves to be, knows that and proves it in “Trouble With Forever” with lyrics like,
“Three hundred people heard her say I do,
But there was no one there when he said we’re through.”
Anyway, you want a good cry, check out this song.
