Songs That Got You Through Break Ups :)

I often revert to Ani when my heart hurts...

...takes me back to my angsty youth.

Not so much a break-up-coping song - but it's an anthem to me. This song gets me through all sorts of stuff.

These are the two saddest break-up songs I have ever heard. The incredible angst of loving someone who no longer loves you ...

Sad and lonely Smooches,

When my much beloved husband died seven years ago, this was the song that most espressed my loss. Seven years later it still tears me up when I hear it. Truly the worst "break up" of my life.
Smooches,
Keri

A year or so later, when my sons had decided to grieve the loss of their Dad by running away and constantly getting in to trouble with the law, I realized I WAS still alive and I had lots of stuff I needed to take care of, so I adopted this as my personal "motto" song. It still motivates me - and it is also a great "recovering from a break-up" song. Good for this particular moment too - I've been sad all night - time to kick myself in the butt and get on up out of the dumps.
Smooches, y'all,
Keri
