I need some songs that would elicit mixed positive and negative feelings. songs with lyrics/music that are sad and happy at the same time ala "bittersweet". they also need to be fairly popular or current so that 17-21 year olds would be able to "get into" or follow

examples: eric clapton - tears in heaven, although this may just be more sad
goo goo dolls - iris
green day - wake me up when september ends
live - lightning crashes
the beatles - yesterday


im brainstorming so im open to ideas and i need some more! if you have an idea, and the song is online somewhere streaming (like youtube videos for ex) if you could post that as well.
