Very nice writing. Not a lot of choices throughout but the story had a nice rhythm. You did a good job incorporating all the various songs into the story, which is bonus.
This is nice. Vivid and concise. It's not difficult to survive but it still has to be deliberate. I did find it hard to tell who was speaking at times. Listening to the songs added a lot to the experience—instantly, a scene, and I can see how your imagination has flowed. The ending felt unsatisfying, but maybe I was just more interested in the vignettes than the framing device. (Also you should probably expand that content warning. One chapter is about suicide. And the bakery chapter is missing a heading.)
