* Surprisingly, there's a sad moment on her reality show, ''My Crazy Beautiful Life,'' when, after a show, she learns that Perez Hilton was in the audience. She is ''not'' a fan of his, considering him a bully, and she gets angry to the point of almost ''weeping.'' It's pretty heartbreaking to watch the party girl become TheWoobie.
** This coupled with her real life battles with an eating disorder and Perez Hilton leaking nude photos of her made late 2013 and early 2014 hard for the poor girl.
** RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement aside, her attempts to fight against Dr. Luke in court. Despite ''everything'' she fought for, the judge [[KickTheDog did not go for her favor and her label will not release her out of her contract if not destroying her music career]]. Kesha ended up ''breaking down crying in court'' and to say the InternetBackdraft wasn't big, it's an {{Understatement}}.

* "The Harold Song" is sad enough, but it becomes even more tear jerking when you realize she wrote it about her fiance who died in a car crash.

* Her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9T74pY-KhY live cover]] of Music/LadyGaga's song "Til it happens to you" was pretty much inevitably going to be this, given that it's a song about sexual assault from the survivor's perspective. Made worse by how obviously emotional Kesha was singing it, at one point having to stop herself from crying before starting over, and by her dedicating the song to "every man, woman, child, and animal that has ever been abused".

* Her unreleased song "Dancing With The Devil" which is about an inescapably toxic relationship (rumoured to be about Kesha and Dr Luke), particularly a few lines towards the end where she sounds on the verge of tears:
--> ''He's got my mind, he's got my soul''
--> ''Mama, he won't let me go''

* The ''Out Alive'', while touching on her normal party themes, is basically about how we're all going to die and there's nothing we can do about it, nor is there any way to stop it. No matter where you are in life, no matter how good or bad you are in life, no one's getting out alive.

* ''Wherever You Are'' tells of a lost love that she'll never forget. It's far more wistful and bittersweet than the description implies.

* ''Crazy Kids'', just like ''Animal'', is sung in a wistful, borderline depressed tone. The lyrics are not particularly depressing - hell, they could easily pass for Ke$ha's usual party style -, but the tone itself seems to imply that they are largely ironic and bitter.

** On the other hand, it can be overwhelmingly negative since Bob Dylan's lyrics for that song are already very spiteful and passive aggressive so having a girl tear up while saying them might not come across as sincere.
