Dancing on My Own. Callum Scott’s remake for a good cry, and then Robyn’s original to feel a little better. |
Oh another good one! Thank you!! |
Love Song by Tesla - listened to it on repeat 1000x in same position. ((hugs)) |
Tesla |
Bon Jovi- this ain't a love song |
Another GenXer here - in the midst of a divorce I didn’t want (cheating husband walked out) and The Tortured Poets Department has been my soundtrack for this sh!tsh0w. I was never a swiftie at all, but add it to your girl power list for sure. Solidarity. |
OP here - sorry to hear. Down Bad is basically the start of the sad playlist, but there’s a lot of great stuff to add to others! |
Love will tear us apart |
Portishead “Sour Times”
Liz Phair “Divorce Song” Uncle Tupelo “Gun” Throwing Muses “Not Too Soon” Scandal “The Warrior” Linda Ronstadt “Different Drum” PJ Harvey “Good Fortune” |
Sad though not all breakup:
Try a Little Tenderness by Otis Redding How I Could Just Kill a Man (acoustic version) by Charlotte Sometimes Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol Sad Eyes by Josh Rouse For your more upbeat breakup list: Ugly Girl by Fleming & John Bitter Heart by Zee Avi Roar by Katy Perry We are Never Ever Getting Back Together by Taylor Swift |
Stars - “Your Ex-Lover is Dead” |
Lust to Love, the Go Gos |
Lyle Lovett: The Road to Ensenada is a great breakup album. I Cant Love You Anymore got me through major heartbreak in 1999. Also the title track, and this hidden track “The Girl in the Corner.” |
You could also go all-in with Dolly Parton, Jolene |
Also Alice Cooper, Poison and Hell Is Living Without You |
