My husband of 26 years (together 34) has had an affair and I've talked about this in threads last week. Now what I need is some really strong songs that I can belt out to lift my spirits. So far I have:
Flowers - Miley Cyrus
What a fool believes - The doobie brothers
(possibly) Good Thing - FYC

Please could I have more.

This is the answer. Even better if you can bellow along out loud.

Weak - Skunk Anansie.
New Rules - Dua lipa
Screamanger - Therapy?
No Good - Prodigy ( a classic)
Lies ( Pale Waves)
All my Pride ( Black Honey)
Last resort - Papa Roach ( a bit dark that one, but with a good level of anger).

I was waiting to see if anyone mentioned this one. What could be better than “Have you forgot whatever it was about me that you couldn’t stand?”

Carrie Underwood before he cheats

Right now, he's probably slow dancing
With a bleached-blond tramp
And she's probably getting frisky
Right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink
'Cause she can't shoot whiskey
Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool stick
Showing her how to shoot a combo
And he don't know

I dug my key into the side
Of his pretty little souped up four-wheel drive
Carved my name into his leather seats
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights
Slashed a hole in all four tires
Maybe next time, he'll think before he cheats........

Also yes to Alanis Morrisette
