* Music/NautilusPompilius: In the song "Walking on the Water", UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} and apostle Andrew discussed that. The apostle asked how Jesus could resurrect people and walk on water. Jesus answered it's not a secret -- in order to do that, Andrew just should be crucified on the cross. Andrew asked Jesus to show him the easy way, and leave the crucifixion for later. Jesus said Andrew, "you are really fool" -- and Andrew, crying, went home with his fish.

* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSLWT1aFA_U The Other Side]]" by Dream Map is split into three parts. The first is a DescentIntoDarknessSong as the protagonist struggles with temptation and torment on their journey, the second reflects their HeroicResolve as they muster their inner strength and persevere, and the third is triumphant as they complete their journey and are welcomed into a place of peace and joy.

* ''Creator/JenniferLopez'': "Waiting For Tonight". Basically, she (or the protagonist, as it's unclear if it's about her or not), has had a ton of failed relationships and is terribly lonely. Then, one day, she finally manages to find true love.

* ''Music/Pink'': "F**ing Perfect". The music video depicts a woman (played by Tina Majorino) who, against all odds, [[EarnYourHappyEnding overcomes abusive parents, anger issues, self-image issues and self-harm to become who she is today]]: a successful artist who's HappilyMarried and is now singing this song to her peacefully-sleeping daughter.

I wanted to recognize that this seemed like a happy ending, but it's really not, too. And subversions are good, right?

Added DiffLines:

* Music/TheAntlers' album Music/{{Hospice}} seems like it ends this way, with the narrator finally letting people back into their life. [[spoiler: [[SubvertedTrope However]], the final track, "Epilogue", shows the protagonist still haunted by the events months [[DownerEnding later]]. ]]

* "The Edge of the World" by Music/{{Dragonforce}}. It ends with its protagonist saving the world after finishing a long and difficult journey. Could very well be considered a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming for the band.

* At the end of the {{Ludo}} rock opera, "Broken Bride," the time traveler has, after slaving at a time machine for fifteen years, gotten stranded in the Cretaceous era, come forward in time to the end of the world. He gives up his last chance of seeing his wife in order to save what's left of humanity. But [[DeusExMachina angels arrive]], and grant him his request: to return to that last morning in May. [[spoiler: And then -- he gets into the car with his wife, so that they can [[TogetherInDeath die together]].]] *wibble*

* Some BruceSpringsteen songs fall into this trope, notably "Badlands", "None But the Brave" and "Land of Hopes and Dreams". Also, in his concert DVD "Live From New York City", filmed during the E Street Band's 1999-2000 tour, during an extended bridge in "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out", he delivered an impassioned speech, telling the audience that joy, faith, healing, companionship, a second chance, all of life's blessings can be yours-- "But you gotta work at it!"

* Music/GodspeedYouBlackEmperor and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVekJTmtwqM "The Dead Flag Blues"]]. The entire song reeks of grimdark, with all the horrors of a ruined world and decay. But as the song goes on, its tone gets a bit more happier, culminating in its last two minutes having a very upbeat and hopeful ending.
