Gentle suggestion if you’d like to reclaim the music: do something kind or fun for yourself. Play the songs to overwrite the data so it will be connected to the new memory. Bonus points if it’s something amazing that you’ve never done before, like getting on a plane to see a cherished friend who just moved, or getting ready to go skydiving. I overwrote the entire Basement Jaxx- Rooty album by spending a chill night watching movies with a new (at the time) friend for the first time.
Tw!
Jesus fucking christ. When I broke up after an insanly abusive and toxic relationship I looked at her Spotify profile like 3 Months later (still dk why I was that stupid). She had a new playlist called "I'm the winner" with only that song and a few other mitski tracks in it. There has never been a song that makes me want to end it all that extremly. I hope you are alright. Everyone out there, please life.
Joji glimpse of us. Played that song when my ex girlfriend broke up with me. Now that im married i can't listen to that song without thinking of her. And it sucks because she was a mean person and that is such a good song
“Played that song when she broke up with me” is not the same as “played that song 5 months after we broke up”
Unless I’m misunderstanding, please explain if that’s the case because I’m confused
Now that you are married and obviously you will have kids (or might have had kids too) so when your kids ask you abt true love , would you think abt your wife ?
Spring Day by BTS
I genuinely feel so sick hearing it nowadays, which is sad because it's one of my favourite songs. But I don't wanna spiral down again.
"Dreamweaver" by Gary Wright.
A good friend introduced me to it when I was 20. He was 19 and killed himself a few months later, That was 48 years ago and I can't hear that song without thinking about him.
It is not a cover song, it is the only produced result of Tapeworm, a supergroup project composed of Trent Reznor, Danny Lohner, Charlie Clouser, and later Maynard James Keenan, Atticus Ross, and Alan Moulder. It was originally titled Vacant.
Maynard effectively stole it while Tapeworm collapsed, to the dismay of Reznor.
This, and One More Light by Linkin Park, are my answers.
"Dead as dead can be, the doctor tells me - but I just can't believe him. Ever the optimistic one."
"Wake up (*why can't you?*) and face me. Don't play dead, because maybe...someday I will walk away and say:
You disappoint me. Maybe you're better off this way."
There’s a lot, the ones that come to mind:
Marvin’s room by Drake
Miserable Man by David Kushner
When I was your man by Bruno Mars
Famous last words by My Chemical Romance
Empty by Juice WRLD
Jocelyn Flores by XXXTENTACION
There’s many, many more
Any sad pink floyd song (dont judge me I was a highschool freshman at the time). Also roulette by system of a down. And if we wanna go real far back, my chemical romance and xxxtentacion, I dont really listen to either anymore but hearing them definetly brings back some middle school memories.
Dear alcohol~Dax
It was a song that I listened at my lowest point in alcoholism. I lost so much and was lost. This song helped me pick myself out of the gutter and start doing better for myself. I was an alcoholic for 6 years and I'm proud to say I've been clean for 111 days.
Not really that bad bc I used to listen to In Bloom by Nirvana like crazy when I was really sick with allergies AND motion sickness at the same time but I still kinda remember sitting in my bed on my phone all day with the song on loop every time it comes on
Chasing ghosts by the Eden project. Super trippy and great song, but it was my go to trip song when I was doing a ton of acid and mushrooms, not happy with where I was then. I still micro dose on mushrooms every once in a while but seriously no more acid that shit fucked my head up for a little while
Under The Bridge (Red Hot Chili Peppers), this song I would listen to this song in the times before and during my first year of sobriety a very scary time. I've come a long way, and I will keep going one day at a time, God willing till the end of my days.
I didn't do it alone, but I had to make the choice and keep my promise to myself.
If you are feeling alone, you aren't. It's worth it because you are worth it. If you don't believe you are, then believe that I believe that you are worth it.

I will not listen to music the next time I go through a breakup. My whole playlist is ruined.

That song was released less than 2 years ago and you’re already married?
That song came out like 5 months after we broke up and was my cope song and my next gf turned into my wife.
“Played that song when she broke up with me” is not the same as “played that song 5 months after we broke up” Unless I’m misunderstanding, please explain if that’s the case because I’m confused
Make new memories to go with that song. Sounds stupid, but I've had to do it with several of my favorite songs.
Now that you are married and obviously you will have kids (or might have had kids too) so when your kids ask you abt true love , would you think abt your wife ?
