Happy Guy - Sad Music

I just finished my first year with Spotify (thanks, Madeleine!), which means I have just gotten my first annual summary of the music I've been listening to there.  

It confirmed what I would have guessed; I'm a fairly happy guy, who listens to some occasionally morose, relentlessly sad music.  Not all of it, but enough to keep me from constantly floating away in a state of ecstasy.  

I lean toward singer-songwriter, folky stuff.  Watchhouse is my 2022 numero uno band.  I've got this one on heavy rotation – a song about a man coming to terms with his mother's passing.  It cuts me to the soul; but somehow makes me available for a renewal of joy.
