There are too many iconic David Bowie songs to list, but if there is one that stands out as the most heartbreaking one, that would be “Letter to Hermione.” The song, from the legendary self-titled album, is a tale about a love lost, and a clear example of an artist pouring his deepest feelings into song to work through them. Bowie was going through heartbreak while making the album, and this song is what he wished he could have said to his ex, Hermione Farthingale, who he was still in love with at the time. The result was the most intense, loving, and devastating track of its time.
