The heart desires what it desires, and occasionally, with a little help from a collection of depressing breakup songs, it simply desires to feel. Even though you are currently unable to envision what life will be like after your split, you are aware that you will eventually recover and move over your heartbreak. However, we can talk about chin-ups another day. When you’re feeling down, listening to a playlist of sad tunes could be the only solace.
“Hard Feelings / Loveless” by Lorde
“The beginning of this song describes the breakdown of her relationship and her realization that she will eventually move on from it, which always makes me feel better. The song “Loveless,” which is more upbeat and essentially an “I’m over it” breakup anthem, comes on after “Hard Feelings.”
“In My Blood” by Shawn Mendes
“It serves as a reminder that, despite how much I hate my life and want to give up, I am not the type of person to succumb to depression. It strengthens my resolve to advance personally.”
“I Will Survive,” Gloria Gaynor
Breakup or no breakup, this song might be the ultimate pump-up tune. A rough day at the office? Want to get pumped up for a major test? This music will be useful. Despite its versatility, the song’s central theme is about rescuing yourself from heartbreak. It should be on your list of possible breakup music.
“Love of My Life,” Jennifer Lopez
The overall feeling of this song by the queen of the love ballad, Jennifer Lopez, is “I have had enough.” And by looking for someone to complete you, we mean that you have enough. This song addresses the significance of finding your own “love of your life” while you’re still looking for a companion.
“Take Care,” by Drake & Rihanna
This breakup song ultimately offers you the assurance and preparedness to go on with the fierceness and dignity that only Queen Bey can conjure.
“All Too Well,” by Taylor Swift
Songs by Taylor Swift about breakups should have their own category. The 10-minute “All Too Well” short film, which Swift released alongside the song’s Red (Taylor’s Version) reissue, pretty much turned the entire world into a sobbing puddle.
