I feel like my marriage is falling apart. I love DH so much, but I can't communicate with him. I'm hiding in my bedroom listening to "Get me" by Everything but the Girl.

Please make me feel less lonely. Tell me what songs get you through.

Get Me

I'm in a similar situation and i have to say Survivor by Destiny's Child is really helping- as a 'I'll be fine if this goes tits up' type of song.

Keep playing The Wanted 'Lose My Mind'. Not the most sophisticated/poignant song but it's even been 7 whole days yet so it's allowed!

Hoping to move onto something more inspirational as time goes on and feeling stronger Xmas Smile

I should say dont listen to this - - I must have cried buckets to this when I was going through my break-up.

Hope you are feeling better soon - taking control is good and makes you feel much better Smile

I listened to a lot of real sad songs when i broke up with my ex. Friends said I should put on Gloria Gaynor songs but sad songs help you get it all out.

I can't make you love me, Bonnie Raitt

Lately, Stevie Wonder

A man is in love, The Waterboys

Wild is the Wind, Nina Simone

What's going wrong reluctant?

Björk's Immature. Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for, but when i was going through a bad break-up, in the end this was what i felt.

I couldn't find a decent version on youtube, but you can listen to the song here.
