The Goodbye Play List

Ha ha HeadKnowsHeartDoesnt. Don`t speak was my stbx`s favourite song. He even made me try and explain what I thought it was about some years ago. Guess I should have seen the signs.
My favourite will always be, I will survive by Tina Turner.
The greatest love of all by Whitney Houston.
Singing them at top volume in the shower really kicks you into a good place.

Sounds like you are felling a bit more positive today if your last choice is anything to go by !! Really glad.

How's about 'Break on through to the other side' - the Doors ?

I have various playlists for the various stages and emotions I went through over my long divorce. I have to say, I couldn't have held it together without music!

Here a few favs...

I can do better - Avril Lavigne
Bulletproof - La Roux
Part of me - Katy Perry
Roar - Katy Perry
Best thing I never had - Beyonce
Irreplaceable - Beyonce
Big girls don't cry - Fergie
Get the party started - Pink
Just like a pill - Pink
So what - Pink
Back to black - Amy Winehouse
Tears dry on their own - Amy Winehouse
Ridin' solo - Jason Derulo
Never ever - All Saints
Survivor - Destiny's Child
Somebody that I used to know - Gotye

I could go on. These were some of my more empowering and strengthening songs. But sometimes you just need to feel sorry for your self and have a good cry to get it out of your system. I have a very depressing play-list for that.

Alice Cooper - I'm eighteen !

I definitely feel a sense of Freedom ( George Michael ) today. Realise now how controlling the ex could be. Since he's been gone ( Rainbow ) making decisions by myself has been a bit scary, and I've buggered up on occasion, but I'm going to learn to enjoy it again.

There has got to be a (Mr) brightside ( Killers) to all this.

Morning All,

Firstly thank you to everyone for their suggestions, I have listened to some really great music, some that I've never heard before so thank you for sharing it really means a lot.

I have woken up this morning and spent the last hour on Spotify going through the suggestions and just sat here smiling to myself as these are so perfect

Like some of the posters, I'm waking to good days and some tough ones but I can't tell you how much fun this has been.

For anyone on Spotify, please DM me and I will share the complete playlist with you, there are some cracking songs on there!

And the offer of further submissions is still open!

Yes

Music did it fit me . Taken me all over the place even Vilnius. Happiness from within .

D

Martin - you cheeky git.

Looking ahead - ok now I feel old again. Have only just got to grips with iTunes, I think Spotify may be beyond me. Glad you are enjoying the music though.

Declan - I hope this doesn't sound like an insult but when I first read your posts, Dylan with his guitar, from the magic roundabout came to mind as you seem so laid back. At least I was right about the guitar part !

Having a brilliant day today. Daughter- in France, Son - on university visit, Me - dancing around the house in shorts ( sounds very sad but it's the first time I have worn them in 18 years as the ex hated my legs - admittedly I wouldn't win a Miss lovely legs competition - but quite frankly who cares now )

So a final submission, Cream - I feel free !
