I do not listen to music often, but sometimes, I just need songs I can relate too.

I love all music.

Right now, I listen to:

Last Call - Lee Ann Womack

Repeat - David Guetta ft. Jessie J

Whatever It Takes - Lifehouse

What do you listen to when you need something that translates to what you are feeling and going through?

Songs that have helped me/that I have related to:

The Cave - Mumford and Sons

I Won't Give Up - Jason Mraz

Always - Switchfoot (This one has to do with the day of my son's birth. He is an OC, and I didn't find out until he was 7. This song helped me feel like that day was special again.)

Whatever it takes-Lifehouse

Broken-Lifehouse

Foolish-Ashanti

My husband sent me the song, Hard to Love, from Lee Brice. Which is perfect for a situation like this. So I sent him one back...Don't Cha Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me from the Pussy Cat Dollls. He didn't think it was as funny as I did though.

Before I was even aware of my WH 4 year A he gave me a song that has stuck in my heart. I have repeatedly asked him why he did this. At the time, his A was pretty much over and he was struggling to come to grips with what he had done and how he knew this would hurt me. He was a mess and the song was his way of telling me how badly he screwed up

Schilling,

I accidentally stumbled across that song on Pandora. It was on a channel from another artist I stumbled across Ingrid Michaelson. Yeah I know listening to some mellow female singers isn't very manly, but it really has helped with this whole situation.

Ingrid Michaelson also has an excellent song called "Be OK" which I think is the song that made me add her as a station.
