Tear Jerker / Gotye

• "Bronte", which is about a friend's dog that had to be put down. The music video has a different, yet equally sad, theme.
• Inge Liljestrom's cover of "Coming Back"
• "Heart's A Mess". The singer is in love with someone who has been hurt in love and can't commit.
  Love ain't fair/So there you are, my love
• "Eyes Wide Open" is a song about people facing ruin because they refuse to change or even acknowledge that they need to. While the song doesn't directly mention any real-world matter, the music video featuring humanoid creatures traversing barren landscapes in search of water imply that the song is about the difficulty of getting people to address major environmental issues.
• "Somebody That I Used To Know." Anyone who's ever gone through an uncomfortable breakup where both sides play the Blame Game (and one is clearly more guilty than the other, but can't accept it) can identify with its sombre lyrics. In the video, Gotye is trying his best not to make eye contact with Kimbra, either out of shame, frustration or both, as she calls him out on his wangst, all while both of them are literally and figuratively naked.
