When You're feeling Sad After A recent Split You Should Listen To These 5 songs Post-Breakup


1. "Green Light" by Lorde

This song gives the prefect uplifting beat needed to rise your spirit after a bad split. The song will have you dancing in your car, hands off the wheel, windows down, forgetting about the Brad or Chad that just dumped you. The meaning behind this song is beautiful as well. It's about longing to let go, which is what anyone really wants after a breakup.

2. "Somebody Else" by The 1975

Probably the hardest part of ending things with someone you love is seeing them move on and love somebody else. Even if you don't want to be with a person anymore, it's still can be devastating watching them find someone new. The 1975 beautifully wraps up this painful feeling in an empowering song that will make you want to dance, scream, and cry all at once. If you chose to listen to any song on this playlist I recommend it be this one.

3. "Drive" by Oh Wonder

Sometimes love isn't enough to keep a relationship going. Only so much effort can be put into fixing a relationship and there comes a point where someone has to leave. In this song, Oh Wonder uses the metaphor of driving away to represent leaving a dead relationship. It may be hard, but when theres been so many lies, and games, it's what is necessary.

4. "Same Drugs" by Chance The Rapper

No matter what anyone says, people change. Not every change is good or bad, sometimes someone can just slowly become different. In long relationships, some people change and grow as a couple, while some grow apart. Chance describes a love that has died from a girl growing up, and not being the same girl he used to know. After many breakups, the person you used to call your best friend can all of the sudden feel like a stranger to you. This song is a great way to help deal with that feeling, and make sense of it.

5. "Sorry" by Halsey

It's easy to be hard on yourself after many failed relationships. It makes it hard to open up to a new person, or fall in love again, which may cause you to break a few hearts. This is a good song if you were the one that broke up with a person that loved you, because that person feels pain too. Many people leave relationships fearing that they can't love. Halsey captures this mentality perfectly in this song, and most specifically in the lyric, "Someone will love you, but someone isn't me."

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

Yes, the math major is doing a math-related post. What are the odds? I'll have to calculate it later. Many people have probably learned about the Fibonacci sequence in their high school math classes. However, I thought I would just refresh everyone's memories and show how math can be beautiful and apply to physical things everywhere around us with stunning examples.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.
