Music 4 - Getting over Hearbreak

I recently sent a CD to a friend of mine that's dealing with a terrible break-up and I truly believe the songs on it are some of the best songs for getting over a breakup. Not to mention, the order of the playlist.

Start slow and painful, rebuilding, get mad, and then get over it.


  1. Broken - Lifehouse
    • We all feel a little broken when we're getting over a loss. "I am damaged at best... I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing, with a broken heart that's still beating..."
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6cdPeYJh0s
  2. Compass - Lady Antebellum
    • Because your friends are always right down the road.
    •  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiG-4-V7Xd0
  3. Payphone - Maroon 5 ft Wiz Khalifa
    • "Where have the times gone baby?... Where are the plans we made for 2?"
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRaWnd3LJfs
  4. Should've Said No - Taylor Swift
    • It always seems like there was something that could've been avoided to avoid the whole mess...
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfWwrUd4dwk
  5. Harder to Breathe - Maroon 5
    • This is my favorite Maroon 5 song because it holds so much passion and hatred and recovery.
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rV8NHsmVMPE
  6. All Over You - Spill Canvas
    • Most people haven't heard of Spill Canvas, but they have so many great angsty songs... like this one. "All I'm asking for is love, but you never seem to have enough."
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DV3tLQ2uGzs
  7. Breathing - Lifehouse
    • Who doesn't love Lifehouse?? They just *get* love! "I'm finding my way back to sanity again Though I don't really know what I'm going to do when I get there..." 
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1c6GWPjH40g
  8. Drunk on a Plane - Dierks Bentley
    • First of all: Dierks nailed the video. Secondly: everyone can appreciate a quick rebound.

  9. A Little Bit Stronger - Sara Evans
    • Here's where it gets intense. It's time to pick your self up and start putting the pieces back together. "...got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face. I got a little bit stronger."
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22zB6Soc2Gk
  10. Something in the Water - Carrie Underwood
    • Because the real answer is above.

  12. Forget You - Cee Lo Green
    • Atari is much better anyway.
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTZ65SbocSo
  13. Undo It - Carrie Underwood
    • Nothing better than waring tons of shimmer and realizing you're better off without that memory. And doing it with sass.
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywtJYvDBKek
  14. Piece of Me - Britney Spears
    • I've always thought of this as the best eff-you song around. I don't care what you think, but I'm gonna do me every day... no matter how much that changes.
    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4FF6MpcsRw
  15. Picture to Burn - Taylor Swift

  17. Findin' a Good Man - Danielle Peck
    • "Blind dates and horror stories, pushy guys and fast movers, let's dedicated this girls' night out to big talkers, bad losers. It's so hard finding a good man"
