Kashmir by Led Zeppelin
It was released in 1975 in their album Physical Graffiti
Fun fact: The lyrics were written by Plant in 1973 immediately after Led Zeppelin's 1973 US tour. None of the group members had visited Kashmir. Instead, Plant was inspired during a drive through a desolate desert area of southern Morocco.

Canary in a Coal Mine by The Crane Wives
It was released on September 22, 2012
Fun Fact: Canaries were historically brought into coal mines in cages by miners, because if there were toxic gases such as carbon monoxide in the mines, they would kill off the canaries first and allow the miners to leave. A “canary in a coal mine” is thus a warning sign of danger. In this song, the singer shoulders the danger and pain faced by her partner, and suffers as a result.

Folding Chair by Regina Spektor
It was released on June 23, 2009
Fun Fact: so I couldn't really find anything so I've started looking for the meaning of the song but the opinions were very different, but they fall in mostly two categories. 1) So it seems the character may be depressed or bad at dealing with change and wishing to go back to the beach where the song started, 2) they could've fallen in love with someone just to be betrayed but tried to pretend nothing happened. (this may be very wrong so I'm apologizing in advance)

Soldier, Poet, King by The Oh Hellos
It was released on October 16, 2015
Fun Fact: The soldier embodies an undying fight for justice and truth, while the poet epitomizes the beauty of emotions, words and sentiments. The king is the embodiment of righteousness, leader of all the virtues, and defender of integrity. The song’s lyrics come directly from The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis. It speaks of how faith gives us strength, reminding us that we don't have to choose between being soldiers for justice or being poets. Instead, it is a call to be both. With faith and moral courage we can do hard things, bringing justice and beauty into this world. (this isn't a confirmed meaning but best I could find- Mod Secret)
