Sometimes it’s hard to describe our feelings, especially after we feel like we’ve been kicked to the curb.
So what do we do after being dumped beside our friends and loads of chocolate? We listen to music, of course. And we express our emotions through song.
To help you with this rough patch in your life, ENTITY shares our breakup playlist.
Here’s one of the most popular songs about losing someone you love and letting go.
When Mariah Carey sings, “When you left I lost a part of me. Is that so hard to believe?” her words explain exactly what it feels like to have to say goodbye.
The end of a long significant relationship could mean you face total devastation.
The experience could be so challenging that you become the cliche who cries multiple times everyday for weeks and weeks on end, and you eat ice cream for dinner (straight from the tub).
That’s okay. We’ve all been there. And sometimes the best thing you need is to listen to a song that understands your pain. Who better to turn to than the pop princess of breakups herself, Taylor Swift.
This breakup song is for those of you who were probably in bad relationships from the beginning. You’ve been mistreated and you’re fed up and frustrated about wasting time. So turn up some CeLo Green to help you process that anger and say what’s really on your mind.
Leave it to Lily Allen to rock the confidence back into your world after bad a breakup. This song explores the pleasure one might get from their ex’s misery.
Moving on songs have never felt quite as liberating as Kelly Clarkson’s independent woman anthem from her album “Breakaway.” The loud melodious beat calls all newly single ladies to celebrate their freedom, space and chance for self-reflection.
“To the left to the left…”
Maybe you’ve tried to break up with the same bad boy who just isn’t getting the message. Do as Queen Bey does and show him the door. Make sure he gets the message.
If not, blast “Irreplaceable” as loud as you can. Maybe then he’ll get the point. And you’ll have a totally cathartic song cheering you on in the background.
“I Will Survive” became the first and the last Grammy ever awarded for “Best Disco Recording” since the genre began dying out. And it’s a good thing too because nothing says girl power like the striking musical vocals of Gloria Gaynor.
Like most of Adele’s hits, she turns heartbreak into glorious art with “Rolling in the Deep.”
This song is perfect for those whose sadness after a breakup transitions into rage, an emotion she captures in the very first line: “There’s a fire starting in my heart, reaching a fever pitch, it’s bringing me out the dark.”
Sing it, girl and sing it loud!
Have you ever felt regret about dating someone who you thought was “the one only to realize that they were never as good as you made them out to be when you were together?”
The saying “love is blind” can be so true in this case. That’s why you have Goyte to remind you that this person no longer has to mean anything. They are simply a person that you used to know.
Here’s one of the best songs about saying goodbye because it reminds us that breaking up can sometimes be the happy ever after we’ve been hoping for.
What are you waiting for? Sing your heart out, girl. Sing it loud and proud. And while you’re at it, you may even want to summon the girls for a karaoke night.
