music to cry to

[failedasaparent]

I'm having a shit time, one bit of bad news after the other at the moment.
What songs do you listen to when you feel like crying all the time?

[JesusInTheCabbageVan]

If you're looking for something to drop-kick you right over the edge, then Tears are in Your Eyes by Yo La Tengo.

[Biscuitsneeded]

Everybody Hurts REM
She Goes On Crowded House
In this Heart Sinead O Connor

[Raera]

I can't live if living is without you. Nillson

[Bluewavescrashing]

Nothing but Thieves- sorry

[parrotonmyshoulder]

Vincent - Don McLean

[CockCarousel]

Machine Gun Kelly- Glass house

[juneybean]

I last cried to Ed Sheeran - Perfect - but I was drunk and am infertile, its the line "to carry children of our own" that upsets me.

[Elledouble]

Leonard Cohen. Nick Cave. Conor Oberst. I love sad songs

[failedasaparent]

thanks.
I've added two myself, any other suggestions for a pity party attended by one?

I don't like Mondays - Boomtown Rats
Dancing with tears in my eyes - Ultravox

[petrocellihouse]

That’ll Do. Peter Gabriel..... you’ll be in bits.

[NooneElseIsSingingMySong]

I don’t know why but Gravity by Embrace sets me off every time!

[Toilenstripes]

You and me against the world by Helen Reddy

[Earthgirlsareeasy]

Snow Patrol - You Could Be Happy

[NecklessMumster]

Morning of our lives - Jonathan Richman
Do you realise - Flaming lips

[Twigletgirl27]

@petrocellihouse I heard that in the last couple of days on radio 2, Terry Wogan's favourite song apparently. And yes would do the trick 😢

[Ughmaybenot]

Better man by little big town and burning house by cam

[PurpleFrames]

Dry your eyes - the streets

[failedasaparent]

Thank you. I've added all of those.
Any more please?

Just listening to 'don't give up' that's so sad.

Beth Nielsen Chapman has written songs that touch your soul. I love “ Find Your Love” which was in the film “ The Calendar Girls”. Can’t listen to it without sobbing. Another one is “ Somewhere Over The Rainbow” sung by Eva Cassidy. I’m in bits every time.

[DonLewis]

Slightly out there choices maybe, but Paint My Heart by the Teskey Brothers. Every single time.

And Beth Hart. There's one about her sister. But Beth Hart is just so talented that listening to her in the right mood can set me off big time.

[binkyboinky]

The Woman's Work, by Kate Bush, always sets me off

[ParkheadParadise]

I could never say Goodbye - Enya.

Dancing in the Sky - Dani and Lizzy.

[Joecleere]

Hey everyone, I just released a song called "innocence" about what it's like to be parent. I have two of my own 1and 3yr and wrote it with another parent. about not wanting them to find out all the troubles of the world. "I don't want to wipe the innocence from your eyes" it's Joe Cleere - innocence (from your eyes)

[Joecleere]

I also find music can be a great avenue if your feeling down or frustrated. It's usually in two forms though. Either complete escapism super positive - elbow "one day like this"

Chicago - Sufjan Stevens

Or touches your soul and makes you confront your feelings.

Macklemore - same love

Lisa hannigan - Lille

Aimee Mann - just like anyone

Adele - 2/3s of every album lol 😂

[AuntieMarys]

Disturbed's version of The sound of silence
