Chronotrgr Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Alkaline trio are my break up band, no other band sums up the heart ache any better than the the trio does, check out a song called Fine, that's how I feel most of the time
SparrowH Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I'm not sure I have anything specific I listen to but I always see The Cure mentioned. I'm not usually sure whether it is best to give my feelings a voice through music, so listening to sad music, or to listen to something that can change your mood. I guess it depends where you are at.

Well, for me it really depends on the mood. These days im listening to a lot of pick-me-up music ... when i had just been dumped , i listened to a tonne of sad,depressed, emotional music 1

I tend to still go towards the sad depressed tone of music though but perhaps that is just down to the type of music I like anyway. 1

I am one of those people who listen to music alot in tough situations to help push me through the pain....what musicI and bands help you through...one of my favourites is Blue October I can't listen to ANYTHING sad, I hate when breakup songs play when I'm in a store or on the radio or whatever. I listen to music that's 100% upbeat and not talking about love, which most music does. Examples of happy songs I listen to: Slim Gaillard - Potato Chips Slim Gaillard - Little Red Riding Woods Slim Gaillard - Groove Juice Jive Don Redman - Try Getting A Good Night's Sleep Teddy Wilson - On Treasure Island Ray Brown Trio - Easy Does It I already feel crappy enough, I don't need to listen to crappy sad music making my day even sadder. I don't know how anyone can listen to heartwrenching music, even if it's relatable. Just brings me down more, to each their own I guess. Also I'm not an overly religious person but some religious songs have a strong message and can be comforting when you feel low like these: Beckah Shae - Comfort Me Luminate - Healing In Your Arms Bread of Stone - Not Alone
