11 Songs You Must Listen To Post-Breakup
HuffingtonPost

Breakups are hard, but music can really help you get through it. While sad songs typically can explain exactly how you feel, sometimes that becomes too much. Sometimes, you need to hear a cheery song to boost your mood. Here's a compiled list of all of the songs I find myself listening to after breakups.

1. "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" - Taylor Swift


(And pretty much anything else by Taylor Swift, because she is the queen of breakup songs)

This song will make you feel empowered, and you'll definitely be singing along even though you can't reach those high notes.

2. "I Knew You Were Trouble" - Taylor Swift


Of course by Taylor again, because this one will allow you to take all that hurt and hatred and scream it out into song.

3. "Someone Like You" - Adele


Don't even lie. When this song first came on the radio, you listened to it on repeat and wished to have vocals like her. It's more of a sad ballad, but at the same time it comforting.

4. "Battlefield" - Jordin Sparks


Her vocals will make you feel something, I promise.

5. "I Don't F**k With You" - Big Sean


Because in the pit of all the sadness, there's anger. After listening to this and sining/rapping along, pretending like they're right in front of you while doing it, you'll feel 10 times better. Besides, sometimes cussing feels better than crying.

6. "Lips Of An Angel" - Hinder


An obvious classic, and you can actually imagine yourself in the music video while listening to it.

7. "Happy" - Leona Lewis


Her empowering vocals will make you feel empowered as well. You can feel her pain and relate it to yours.

8. "Breakeven" - The Script


"Because when a heart break no it don't break even."

9. "Picture to Burn" - Taylor Swift


Like I said, she's the queen of breakup songs. She always has been and always will be. When I go through breakups, this song is on repeat.

10. "Heartless" - Kanye


Although he's referring to a girl, you can definitely relate it to the dumb guy that dumped you. He's heartless.

11. "Kerosene" - Miranda Lambert


Another empowering, get-all-of-your-anger-out kinda song.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
