Four Songs to Listen to When You're Sad

No matter how old you are, you just have some sad days. Whether it's an annoying boss, professor, peer, or situation, some days you just need to find a dark closet and cry in it. And when that day comes, there are four songs you should listen to so you can feel extra sad. I don't know about you, but when I get sad, I make myself even sadder. Listening to sad music helps you to reach a place so much lower than rock bottom. Listening to these four songs will save you the cost of a therapist.

Bad Day by Daniel Powter

Though it may be your worst day, listening to "Bad Day" will do just as much good. The lyrics "you had a bad day" just make you feel so sad that you consider spending an extra fifteen minutes in that closet. If the lyrics aren't sad enough, prepare yourself for the saddest piano music you will hear...unless you YouTube search "sad piano music."

Sad Song by We The Kings

This one should be self explanatory that it's a sad song, but since I need to take up space, I'll make up an explanation. This is a particularly good song if you're in a fight with someone you were once close with. I don't know from experience, but this is just a depressing song that'll make you feel even worse about your life decisions.

Fix You by Coldplay

The lyric "I will try to fix you" sounds more like you're singing it to motivate you to fix yourself. But at this point, you're not going to. So just weep a little more and hit repeat. And if you weren't crying already, you'll start to when they start singing about crying.

All By Myself by Celine Dion

This is just a timeless classic. If the song isn't sad enough for you, watch the music video and imagine yourself in it instead of Celine Dion. This needs no explanation because it's one of the saddest songs of all time.


None of this was professional advice. Don't take it.

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.
