I've been trying to put together a playlist for the past few days and can only come up with 2 songs lol :) I'm in a very specific state of mind right now that i guess i'd call melancholic and due to this i've been listening to these 2 songs non-stop:

"Ten Years Gone" by Zeppelin & "Sweet Lady Mary" by The Faces

I cannot for the life of me seem to find similar songs that really capture my mood like these do. There's an element of sadness in both songs but they're not overly depressing, it's more a sense of longing to be someplace different, whether that be sometime in the past or some unknown place in the future, just not in the present.

And it's not so much the lyrics in either song, although some passages do resonate, but both Plant and Stewart have that sense of longing in their voice. And both tracks have really strong, emotional guitar playing on them that i think more than anything is why i'm having a hard time finding similar songs. Help me! Thanks :)
