We must not fail to mention that this is obviously not a definitive list and there is no real order. While we take note of the fact that some of these song choices might be a bit too “obvious” to the younger hippie folks out there, others may not. Having said that, feel free to leave some comments with your own song choices and who knows, maybe we’ll do another one and it could make the list. In the meantime, here’s our list of 25 greatest songs about missing someone – I miss you songs.

This is one of my favorite songs about missing someone, an 80’s great about the art of trying to mend a broken heart through denial.
