*I’ve been awake since 3 am, so to me this seems like a fun and interesting post, if I’m wrong I apologize.*
If a random stranger were to scroll through the list of “Top 25 Most Played” songs on my iPod, they might recommend I be placed under psychiatric observation. It is not a list full of happy and uplifting songs, but then I’m not exactly in a happy and uplifting mood most days.
In the first few weeks after my break-up I avoided the radio, particularly the country music station, and found a few songs on my iPod to circulate on repeat. It’s no secret that artists write songs based on their own experiences and heartbreak, and I seriously felt like everyone was written for me. Side note, my ex gets annoyed when I blog about our breakup, I guess he’s lucky I’m not Taylor Swift amiright? Anyway so these are the songs that helped me through the first few weeks/month so that I didn’t drive off a cliff.
Sarah Evans – A Little Bit Stronger
Easy – Rascall Flats and Natasha Bedingfield (I actually had to pull over and cry to this one a drive home from PA)
You and Tequila- Kenny Chesney
Best Thing I Never Had – Beyonce
I Feel Pretty/Unpretty – Glee (shut up)
Love the Way You Lie- Eminem
Wide Awake – Katie Perry
Come Over – Kenny Chesney (ok hello sexy video)
Wasted – Carrie Underwood
What Do You Want - Jarrod Nieman
All of those songs have recently been replaced by the entire Maroon 5 album, Overexposed. I’m pretty sure Adam Levine and I are soul mates, because he really gets me, and every song expresses exactly how I feel at some point of the day. That or he wrote the entire album post break-up from his VS supermodel gf. Seriously though Adam, call me? Maybe? No lie I listen to the album in full at least 4 times a day, every song is that good. These are just my absolute favorites though.
One More Night (I also watch that video 120387 times a day)
Payphone (Another video I watch in excess)
Beautiful Goodbye
Sad
Tickets
Wipe Your Eyes
Wasted Years
Oh and just because it’s not a break up music pity party without some T Swizzle, you know this is on my playlist, haha. Like ever.
