Think Creep (Acoustic), The Dog Days are Over, A Sign of The Times. It's all something deep and special that I can't exactly place, but it hits you like a god damn train sometimes.

I think it might be a kind of dramatized emotional power ballad style. I used to listen to such things a lot, they have an urge, a longing in them that breaks free, reaching a breaking point after which the way leads into an unknown. In a movie they might accompany a scene where the protagonist is at a decisive turning point in the story, almost like soundtracks to life if it were a movie. Some of the songs id categorize this way are:

Magda - Wieso

Pixies - Where is my mind?

Fontaines D.C. - Bug

Keane - somewhere only we know

Adele - Skyfall

Stones - Gimme shelter

30 Seconds to Mars - Kings and Queens

Bowie - Heroes

Europe - Final countdown

Might be sth entirely different tho an totally wrong im rly tired rn but ur post grabbed me. 👍
