10 Songs to Get You Through Any Breakup

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Utah chapter.

You just got dumped and you have Sam Smith’s sappy collection on repeat; trust me, I’ve been where you are. Breakups suck, but your playlist doesn’t have to. Instead of covering your miserable mood with a coat of painfully depressing songs you might want to try these:

 

  1. Go Screw Yourself by Avery. Just press play and apply an obnoxious amount of yelling.
  2. Red High Heels by Kellie Pickler. Requires a long hallway to strut down.
  3. Irreplaceable by Beyonce. Let Queen B teach you a thing or two about what your man is missing.
  4. So What by Pink. Requires a certain level of aggression and a nearby object you can punch without hurting yourself.
  5. Riding Solo by Jason Derulo. Derulo will preach the good life.
  6. Sorry by Beyonce. Don’t complain you, knew a second one was coming.
  7. Gives You Hell by All American Rejects. You might want an old pic of your ex’s face and a couple darts for this one.
  8. Goodbye by Kristina Debarge. Girlfriends required for support.
  9. Forget You by Ceelo Green hopefully you’ll run into your ex in a diner with a new bae by your side for this one.
  10. Finally, we have to finish with a classic. How to Be A Heart Breaker by Marina and The Diamonds. Time to go out and rule the world again.
