[TOMT] [song] Sad piano song about someone dying (piano backing included)
A song I heard maybe five years ago. The chords and piano riff are this:
http://onlinesequencer.net/766177
If that isn't 100% accurate, it is at least 95%.
It was a slow piano-based song about someone who had died, which I came across on an obituary page (it wasn't someone who I knew, so I can't go back to that page). American female singer, with a slight hip-hop feel. Vocals were recorded in an almost telephone-voice style (all middle, not much treble or bass). I don't remember there being any beat but there might have been. Song was quite sparse, no more than piano/possible beat and vocals.
Lyrics almost certainly included "I'm missing you" or something close, and definitely included a phrase like "I'd do anything to hear your voice again" ("see your face again"?). Other lyrics are on the tip of my tongue!
I don't know if this is an obscure song or not! I'm usually pretty good at Googling songs, but this one has me defeated thus far. Appreciate any help.

I think this is it!

Solved.
That's it, much appreciated! How did you find it, can I ask? :)
Happy to help :)
I googled several variations of "see your face again" or "hear your voice again" while using "-" to remove the results from artists that weren't a match. Eventually I ended up with just:
That search brings the song right up! I knew it was a match when I heard the piano bit that matched your sequencer. You have a good memory!
I ended up at https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%22I%27d+do+anything+to%22+%22miss+you%22+lyrics+-aguilera+-softcore+-cell+-siffre without finding it. Thanks again!
