What songs do you listen to when your heart is broken to pieces?

[RJN]

I just listened to this an hour ago (after being inspired by the other songs in this thread ) but the version from The Dance

Came in to post this.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

 

[jivafox]

 

[AlgoAlex]

This is one of my genuine goosebumps songs.

The whole album is perfect when I just want to WALLOW

I like the way that it moves from this wistful, plaintive kind of vibe to just SEETHING with righteous anger. A cathartic experience. I'm glad she got to HAUNT Lindsey with it for decades.

I can’t remember where but there was some interview where she talked about singing it on stage with him and staring at him the whole time

 

[AlgoAlex]

[GNL]

You were so beautiful before today
And then I heard what you had to say
Man, that was ugly

 

[Cerro de Casa]

 

[Tisch]

 

[BoysForSeles]

I heard the beautiful Tori cover first which led me to the amazing host album ‘Blue’.

 

[Tisch]

I could drink a case of you
And still be on my feet

These lyrics ar probably my favourite ever. Are they a compliment or a diss? Literally could be both!

 

[Lucille]

When I talk to my friends so quietly
Who he think he is? Look at what you’ve done to me

 

[Kate]

Is @wildchild Matt Hancock's wife

 

[octophone]

My go-to heartache band is Tindersticks:

You were so beautiful before today
And then I heard what you had to say
Man, that was ugly

Have a double whammy






Under these fingertips
A strange body rolls and dips
I close my eyes
And you're here again
Later as day descends
I'll shout from my window
To anyone listening
'I'm losing'

DEVASTATING

 

[RS]

One of my favourite sad songs, even if it’s not a heartbreak song in the classical sense:

 

[Apoca]

It captures the bleakness quite well.

God I love This House

That was a late discovery, only a few years ago. Amazing song

I remember it (and the parent album) being released and thinking nothing of it at the time. I think it was probably a decade or so before I appreciated it.

'This House ' and 'It Won't Be Long' from the same album are both astonishingly good.

 

[Berly]

 

[OutSynk]

 

[straightorbroken]

I believe these 4 run a good gamut.

 

[SystemAddict]

Say you’ll LAHIIIVVE me again.

 

[Lucille]

Oh great, THIS THREAD.

 

[OutSynk]

Say you’ll LAHIIIVVE me again.

You cry to this?

 

[SystemAddict]

You cry to this?

Yes! Granted, it's dependant upon the amount of gin and ginger ales I have quaffed beforehand.

 

[straightorbroken]

Exactly, if you're going to cry you may as well enjoy it.
