25 beste Lieder im Monat November

November ist der letzte Monat des Herbstes, wenn die Jahreszeit ihren Übergang zu den Wintermonaten des zu Ende gehenden Jahres vollzieht. Es ist auch der Monat der großen Ereignisse wie Thanksgiving, und Beziehungen scheinen ohne Reim und Verstand zu beginnen oder zu enden. Angesichts all dessen ist es nicht verwunderlich, dass es eine Vielzahl von Titeln über den November gibt. In diesem Artikel werden wir die 25 besten Titel unter die Lupe nehmen.

1. November Rain – Guns N’ Roses

November Rain ist wahrscheinlich der beste und erfolgreichste Song, der jemals im Monat November veröffentlicht wurde. Er wurde 1991 von Guns N’ Roses veröffentlicht und war ihr letzter Top-10-Hit, als er den dritten Platz der Billboard Hot 100 erreichte. Er handelt hauptsächlich von der Übergangsphase einer neuen Beziehung und war eine der besten Powerballaden des Jahrzehnts sowie einer der letzten großen Classic-Rock-Banger.

2. November Has Come – Gorillaz

November Has Come nutzt den Wechsel der Jahreszeiten, um die Höhen und Tiefen des Hip-Hop im Laufe der Geschichte detailliert darzustellen. Obwohl er nie verschwindet, scheint er sich qualitativ auf einem absteigenden Pfad zu befinden, zumindest laut MF DOOM. Die Kombination aus dem lyrischen Genie von MF DOOM und den treibenden Rhythmen von Gorillaz ist eine perfekte Verbindung, die zu einem hervorragenden Song geführt hat.

3. Sweet November – SZA

Als SZA Sweet November schrieb, war sie unglaublich krank und stand kurz vor dem Tod. Während dieser Zeit erinnerte sie sich an den Film Sweet November, in dem eine Frau gezeigt wurde, die sich weiterhin mit einem Mann vergnügte, der nicht die Absicht hatte, die Dinge mit ihr zu vertiefen, aber schließlich erlebte, wie sich ihr ganzes Leben veränderte. In ihrem Lied betrachtet sie die Dinge mit einer rosa gefärbten Nostalgie und sehnt sich nach einfacheren Zeiten. Sie fügt sogar ein Sample von Marvin Gaye hinzu, um ein wenig Funk einzubringen.

4. Cold November Wind – Willie Nelson

Cold November Wind von Willie Nelson handelt vom Ende einer Beziehung. Sie nutzt die kalten, schneidenden Novemberwinde, um zu beschreiben, wie eine warme Jahreszeit der Liebe im Nu zerstreut werden kann, selbst wenn man das Gefühl hat, dass sie nie enden wird.

5. November Tale – The Waterboys

November Tale ist vielleicht das beste traurige Lied in dieser Liste, oder zumindest das poetischste. Nachdem sich ein Paar im Laufe der Jahre auseinandergelebt und getrennt hat, findet sich der Sprecher in Fetzen wieder. Er trifft auf eine Frau, die er einst kannte und die versucht, ihn davon zu überzeugen, dass es Gott ist, der ihm Erleichterung verschaffen wird, und nicht sein altes Leben. Obwohl sie nicht die gleiche Meinung haben, sind beide bereit, Kompromisse einzugehen.

6. November Spawned A Monster – Morrissey

November Spawned A Monster found itself in hot water after its release, with many people claiming that the song mocked disabled people. It wasn’t until people took a closer look at the lyrics that they realized it was actually a song describing the sympathy they felt for people with more difficult lives. Somewhat controversial, the song deals with all the insults and insensitive things a disabled woman has had to endure in life, but calls it beautiful and accepted in the end.

7. Mr. November – The National

Mr. November uses the month as a symbol of a specific person, presumably John Kerry and his run for the presidency. The U.S. presidential election takes place in November, at least as far as voting is concerned. In the song, he’s referred to as new blood and the great white hope, but his actual involvement is mostly metaphorical in the context of this song. The song can really relate to any situation you’re going through that has a big impact on your life, as well as the pressure that comes when everything is on the line and the die is cast.

8. November – Tom Waits

Tom Waits’ album The Black Rider exudes sadness and despair. You could describe the album’s emotions as cold, which is exactly the feeling he was going for when he wrote November. Just as November is a final plunge into the death of a year before its final month, the song references death and the end of things in its vivid, dark imagery. It’s the most chilling track on the album, with eerie, haunting sounds and instrumentation.

9. November – Sleeping With Sirens

Not many people or bands manage to write wonderfully positive songs about the month of November, but Sleeping With Sirens did. November is nothing less than a song full of hope. While recounting the unchanging seasons of Kellen Quinn’s hometown in Oregon, it breaks fantastically free of the monotonous cycle that weighs down her life. The song is about facing your fears, leaving home to find a better place, and ultimately fighting for freedom in your own life.

10. November Air – Zach Bryan

Zach Bryan titled his album All My Homies Hate Ticketmaster in 2022 in protest against the company’s abusive ticket prices and the difficulty of accessing concerts. November is one of the saddest tracks on the album. Zach Bryan recounts the loss of his mother and regrets not having had more time to sit down and talk with her. The month of November is included in the song to evoke the fact that she is gone and will never again know the cold winds that blow during this month.

11. Gone Till November – Wyclef Jean

Gone Till November details the narrator’s choice to start selling drugs. He’s overworked and underpaid, so he’s turned to something that will earn him enough money to better care for his girlfriend and family. November comes into play because he had to leave his home to sell drugs, promising himself to return in November with much more money than he currently has.

12. last november – Machine Gun Kelly

Last November’s title track saw Machine Gun Kelly abandon his bad-boy asceticism and tougher sound for a sad single. The song deals mainly with the loss of his child, presumably the one who died when his girlfriend miscarried in November 2021. It was an incredibly powerful and difficult experience for both of them, weighing heavily on their relationship. But if this track doesn’t sound like him, that doesn’t detract from its quality.

13. November 18th – Drake

Before Drake became the chart-topping star he is today, his early work was very low-key. On November 18, he recalls a time when he was trying to get on with his life and figure things out. He was stupid, he made mistakes and he had no direction. But November 18 was an important day for him, a day when he started to change things.

14. November Song – Yerin Baek

If you’ve come to this list looking for a track with the best vocal talent, it’s hard to argue against Yerin Baek’s November Song. It’s a warm, nostalgic song about enjoying the little things in life.

15. November – Azure Ray

Azure Ray’s November is another song about how the month of November was ruined for the artist due to the loss of a loved one during that month. Unfortunately, the month only serves to remind them of this loss, making this time of year difficult to get through.

16. Late November – Sandy Denny

Sandy Denning’s Late November isn’t the simplest of songs, but it’s about a journey the narrator takes in November that brings a lot of clarity to his life. It’s a chilling song, even if it’s not the easiest to understand, and it’s perfect for the autumn months.

17. November – Gabrielle Aplin

Gabrielle Aplin is another artist who uses the changing weather of November to make her point with her single November. She used to love this month and everything associated with it, but after a bad breakup during November, which is part of her past, she can’t stand it anymore. All it does is make her sad, and the month’s cold rains are just another reminder of what could have been.

18. Rose Hip November – Vashti Bunyan

Vashti Bunyan released her album Just Another Diamond Day in 1970, and her debut wasn’t very well received or sold. In 2000, the album was released on CD and the folk singer finally gained recognition for her work. Rose Hip November is one of the album’s best tracks, evoking the buds that appear on rose bushes in autumn. It’s a very soothing and beautiful song, perfect to help you fall asleep or relax.

19. November was White, December Was Grey – Say Hi

The winter months tend to be the time when seasonal depression strikes, and everyday life seems to slip away like a puff of smoke. November Was White, December Was Grey sums up these feelings, describing November as cold but white and December as icy and bleak. The whole song is about waiting for the dark days to come and looking forward to the brighter days.

20. November Blues – The Avett Brothers

November Blues isn’t a song that will make you feel that way; it leaves just enough positivity in its melancholy to help you relax. Instead of focusing on the dreary, cold nature of the month, she spends time reminding the listener that November is a month of change, the transition of the season. She associates the changing of the leaves and the cooling of the weather with the unstoppable nature of time and the way people change over time.

21. November Skies – Carnage Feat. Tomas Barfod And Nina Kinert

November Skies is another one of those songs that uses the bleak imagery of November to start in a dark place, but ends up moving towards hope and happiness. Instead of talking about waiting for a better time of year, or the arrival of warmer weather, it’s about saying that every time of year is beautiful, and that it’s important to make the most of every day.

22. November Love Song – The Mountain Goats

November Love Song is a song that celebrates love. Sometimes you wake up in the morning and immediately feel bad, without knowing what’s wrong. Other times, it’s the weather that makes you feel that way. In this song, the narrator thinks about the day, the weather and the love in his life, deciding that all he needs to get out of his slump is that love.

23. November – PatrickReza

This November song is not about the end of one relationship, but the beginning of another. The couple in the song meet after getting out of a car that randomly catches fire. This chance encounter gives him a reason to talk to the woman he’d already noticed and wanted to talk to anyway, which got their relationship off to a flying start.

24. Fall Into November – The Folk Implosion

Fall Into November by The Folk Implosion uses strong imagery to convey a dark message that eventually becomes clear at the end of the song. From the description of a moat around a castle to the rapid transitions between the seasons, the song ultimately arrives at the idea of enjoying life and the various events of the year.

25. 45th of November – The String Cheese Incident

45th Of November is a song of the future. It’s about all the things that can go wrong in life, and the futility of arguments. The fact that the date and time are seemingly absurd reinforces the idea that this is a distant future, where people will look back in shame at the way we’ve acted.
