I need some heartbreak songs to get my tears out

[Overthinkings]

My relationship is over and I really need to have a good cry to feel better, please send suggestions of heartbreak songs which will do the trick?

Oohh is this a good idea? By chance I've been listening to Black by Pearl Jam today.

But the songs that bring me to devastation on a good day are: this woman's work (Kate bush version), hallelujah (Jeff Buckley's), and if I'm feeling like a total masochist I Giorni gets me right in the feels.
Candy by Paolo Nutini makes me sad as well.

I hope you're ok OP.

I think Brandy almost doesn't count is a real tear jerker and aliyah the one I gave my heart to finishes me off.

Tomorrow though (i can see it's been recommended) I'd get yes by mcalmont and butler (?hope that's right) and Whitney it's not right but it's ok. But for tonight I'd wallow a bit.

Feel better

Bright Eyes?

Heartbeats - Jose Gonzalez

Hawk

You have named the song that I can not bring myself to listen to the opening bars and I get a lump in my throat

Those poor bunnies 😢😩😢 I still feel traumatized years later

Stay lisa Loeb

Romeo and Juliet - Dire Straits

Promise Me by Beverley Craven, Never Going Back by Fleetwood Mac, Need You Now by Lady Antebellum, Nobody Knows by The Tony Rich Project

Sorry Enthusiasm.

I think that song/film traumatised a whole generation.

Chris Isaak's Wicked Game
Tracy Chapman

Hope you feel a bit less sad soon.

Nothing compares to you. Sinead O Connor

It certainly did Hawk

I wanna know what live is- REO Speedwaggon
If I should fall behind - Bruce Springsteen
Fighter- Christina Aguillera when you feel like crying and shouting
X

The Last Goodbye by Jeff Buckley
Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley

Pretty much anything off the Heartbreaker album by Ryan Adams, but 'Why do they leave' and 'In my Time of Need' are almost guaranteed to moisten my eyes.

Misty Blue - Dorothy More

Goodbye my lover - James Blunt

Ann Peebles
The whole 'I can't stand the rain ' album

Brilliantly cathartic

Fireworks - Embrace

Flower - Eels

Arms of Love - REM (cover)

Birds - Neil young

Another one for you OP. Hope you manage to get some sleep tonight.

Freya Ridings - Lost Without You

Nick Cave - love letter.

Hope you feel better soon OP. x

Overthinkings. How are things ? Did the playlists help ?

I think u need:
Shout out to my ex by Little Mix

Hope you are ok OP. As a pp has said,

Alone Again Naturally by Gilbert O’Sullivan is one I simply cannot get through without breaking down.

Or if you are in the angry phase and depending on what happened,

It Should Have Been Me by Yvonne Fair.

Thank you everyone - some perfect suggestions in here and I’ve especially needed Black by Pearl Jam and Love letter by nick cave - i had never heard either of those before.

To those asking after me - I am much better now thank you, onwards and upwards. If anyone else has any other suggestions keep them coming because I’ve found some fab music from this thread.

Prefab Sprout - Love will find someone for you

There's no gentle way to break somebody's heart
To say - it's over - it's time for us to part

Angel dry your eyes soon you're gonna see
I was wrong for you this wasn't meant to be
Love may do the cruellest things
May bruise those angel wings
But angel love will find someone for you

So angel don't you cry in a little while
Every tear will dry and you'll look back and smile
Love may do the cruellest things
Abuse those angel wings
But angel love will find someone for you

Angel don't you cry

Love may do the cruellest things
Abuse those angel wings
But angel love will find someone for you
Oh yes angel love will find someone for you
