So this isn't a traditional song in the sense that you'll hear it on the radio, but it is an important song for subject matter. These guys are both Youtubers. Boyinaband is David Brown who was in a band called You and What Army that you can look up, but they've been on a hiatus since 2014. David has made a name for himself by creating music that deals with heavy material, such as his viral Don't Stay In School video. Jaiden is primarily an animator, but made a splash when she came out with a video discussing her struggles with an eating disorder and how that's why she wouldn't show her face on camera. Since then she's come out of her shell more, and her video really touched the hearts of a lot of people. One being David who contacted her to see if she'd be interested making a song about it. There is a behind the scenes video that adds a lot to it and I hope you watch it as well. I personally have had my own food issues, though it's not quite at disorder level, but now anytime I think about it I think of this video. It hurts me that Jaiden went through this, but I'm glad she found her way out, and found a way to hopefully help others to get out of their own stuff or even give them an outlet to start a conversation. Every step helps.
Here are some songs that break our hearts. The only one I’ve heard of was Will’s with Don’t Take The Girl by Tim McGraw. Then Anna went with A Change Is Gonna Come by Otis Redding. Sammy picked Rocket Girl by Doc Walker, my mom chose How Do You Get That Lonely by Blaine Larson, and my grandma went with Little Joe by Red Sovine.
Peace.
