Just remembered the dire Where do you go to my lovely by Peter sarstedt. Especially the bit when he does that fake aahhaahaahaaa bit .
Also the load of songs about someone dying which were a craze at some point …..Terry by Twinkle, Honey by Bobby Goldsborogh, seasons in the sun by Terry jacks .

I find a lot of songs hit differently since my son’s suicide.
lots of songs refer to it and I hadn’t even noticed till now .
Alone again naturally by Gilbert o Sullivan is about a man jilted at the altar who jumps to his death ( my son jumped so it’s a bit jarring )
I used to love Peter Gabriel’s bit in the middle of Don’t give up then I was singing along recently and realised what “
Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
Gonna stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below” was referring to.
Also Jump by van halen I didn’t even know till recently it was inspired by that .
