atarisboy86 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 What does everyone here listen to? I know that with my recent breakup, I can no longer listen to ANY country music. My ex was the type of girl that would listen to the country station all the time in the car. I'm so over that music! I'm currently listening to Mat Kearney's most recent album, "Young Love". I love the songs "Sooner or Later", "Ships In The Night", and "Hey Mama" Do you any of you listen to angry songs? Uplifting songs? Songs that remind you of your ex? For that matter do you NOT listen to anything that reminds you of your ex?
Thierro Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 I stopped listening to music all together because it's pretty much always about love. I used the energy in writing my own. A break-up can do a lot of good if you channel your anger, resentment and grief the right way. Listen to instrumental music instead.
edwards99 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 I find shinedown to be a great group for coping songs.. call me, simple man,not strong enough. etc etc..
Author atarisboy86 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 Thierro - I agree, it seems like everything on the radio is all about love....boy meets girl, boy and girl fall in love, they get married, etc, etc I have dabbled into song writing but as I don't play any instruments...I guess it's more like poetry? Edwards99 - I'll have to listen to a bit more of their music...I'll check out those songs you mentioned! I find the new Taylor Swift song to be humorous..."We are never getting back together"...It's in the vein of most of her songs relating to love...but at least I smile when I hear it

A break-up can do a lot of good if you channel your anger, resentment and grief the right way. Listen to instrumental music instead. I find the opposite to be true. Most of the music I hear is about break ups and coping. Yeah Yeah Yeah's Maps, Daughter's Youth, The Head And The Heart's Rivers And Roads. Or maybe it's what you read into it. I love what people might describe as sad or depressing music because it's like having a friend who's always willing to listen.
