I've joined Spotify and need a playlist keep me strong.
Stbxh was controlling and emotionally abusing and there was so much I wasn't allowed ( including my own music) and whilst I'm getting better each day by taking back a little control here and there I'm not there yet .
So lovely MNetters what inspiring tunes shall I add Smile

I hate you so much right now by Amelia. Still listen to it when I get shitty messages from him and it’s therapeutic!

Jammydodger1981 · 18/09/2019 12:06

Amelia? Kelis!

Proclaimers - should have been loved. Currently played on a loop in my car.

Sigrid - Don't feel like crying.

But I wholly support the suggestion of Kelis - I hate you so much right now.

I know it's cheesy, but Gloria Gaynor, I Will Survive got me through a few bad days.

MrsGaryLightbody · 18/09/2019 12:21

Wow thank you for your replies.
I'm adding them now although Spotify doesn't have the Kelis one ? Is it called something else ?

Jammydodger1981 · 18/09/2019 12:22

Yes sorry OP, it’s called Caught out there

Blobby10 · 18/09/2019 12:22

Its My Life by Bon Jovi. Played it no end when my marriage was breaking down Grin

VladmirsPoutine · 18/09/2019 12:23

Kelis - Caught out there.

I also second a lot of Beyonce songs. My favourite: Me Myself and I.
Also Beyonce: Green light.

2girlsandagap · 18/09/2019 12:24

Mine were don’t want you back by eamon, I hate you so much by Kelis and Had a little time by the beautiful south, can’t stand me now by libertines. None of them are current ones but they fit the situation.

Lucyslampost · 18/09/2019 12:25

I love all of these! Different style, but I also thing Goodbye Mein Herr by Liza Minelli, from Cabaret can be incredibly therapeutic.

DioneTheDiabolist · 18/09/2019 12:26

Yes by McAlmott and Butler.

misspiggy19 · 18/09/2019 12:28

Mariah Carey- Someday

VladmirsPoutine · 18/09/2019 12:29

Don't know if you like rap/gangsta rap, but one of my most favourite songs ever when gathering myself mentally for a challenge is: M.O.P - Ante Up.

MrsGaryLightbody · 18/09/2019 12:29

Oh my goodness I'm so looking forward to blasting these out !
I've missed music ( well my choices) and now I've got some kick ass songs to help me through this shitty time .
Thank you all Grin

Someone beat me to ot with Yes. Fabulous song.

Weak by Skunk Anansie is a belter of a song as well.

menacetosobriety · 18/09/2019 12:31

Pink so what - I still sing it loud and think about the escape from the x

Also a good bit of green day or something equally sweary and an old Jamilia song - I think it's called superstar - about escaping a DV situation
