stupid radio/tv songs

[jojean]

Why does there seems to be a lot of heartbroken/breakup songs when YOU are broken hearted??

Like for example.. I turn the tv on...

 

first song: Aaliyah - The one I gave my heart to

How Could The One I Gave My Heart To, Break My Heart So Bad?

How Could The One Who Made Me Happy, Make Me Feel So Sad?

Wont Somebody Tell Me? So I Can Understand.

If You Love Me, How Could You Hurt Me Like That?

How Could The One I Gave My World To, Throw My World Away?

How Could The One Who Said I Love You, Say The Things You Say?

How Could The One I Was So True Too, Just Tell Me Lies?

How Could The One I Gave My Heart To, Break This Heart Of Mine?

Tell Me........

How Could You Be So Cold To Me? When I Gave You Everything.

All My Love, All I Had Inside.

How Could you Just Walk Out The Door?

How Could You Not Love Me Anymore?

I Thought We Had Forever.

I Cant Understand.

How Could The One I Shared My Dreams With, Take My Dreams From me?

How Could The Love That Brought Such Pleasure, Bring Such Misery?

Wont Somebody Tell Me? Somebody Tell Me Please.

If You Love Me, How Could You Do That To Me?

Tell Me........

 

second song: Ne-Yo - So Sick

Gotta change my answering machine now that I'm alone

cause right now it says that we can't come to the phone

and I know it makes no sense, cause you walked out that door

but it's the only way I hear your voice anymore

 

(it's ridiculous) It's been months

And for some reason I just (can't get over us)

And I'm stronger than this (enough is enough)

No more walkin round with my head down

I'm so over being blue, Cryin over you

 

And I'm so sick of love songs

So tired of tears

So done with wishing you were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs

so sad and slow

So why can't I turn off the radio?......

 

And I don't even like those kind of music.. but can't turn it off. So ironic

How about other crying songs?? Let's cheer eachother up..

i know this is kind of off-topic... but hey.. why not..

[ShaKe__]

xaxa I've noticed that too Well,when I'm heart broken I always seem to listen to these depressing songs:

 

CRAIG DAVID-DON'T LOVE YOU NO MORE (I'M SORRY)

 

For all the years that I've known you baby

I can't figure out the reason why lately you've been acting so cold

If there's a problem we should work it out

so why you giving me the cold shoulder now

like you don't even wanna talk to me girl

ok I know I was late again

I made you mad and then it's throwing the pan

but why are you making this drag on so long

I'm sick and tired of this silly games

don't figure that I'm the only one here to blame

it's not me here who's been going round slamming doors

That's when you turned and said to me

I don't care babe who's right or wrong

I just don't love you no more

 

Rain outside my window pouring down

What now, your gone, my fault, I'm sorry

feeling like a fool cause I let you down

now it's, too late, to turn it around

I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry

I guess this time it really is goodbye

you made it clear when you said

I just don't love you no more

 

I know that I made a few mistakes

but never thought that things would turn out this way

cause I'm missing something now that your gone

Me at the door with you inner state

giving my reasons but as you look away

I can see a tear roll down your face

That's when you turned and said to me

I don't care babe who's right or wrong

I just don't love you no more.

 

Don't say those words it's so hard

they turn my whole world upside down

girl you caught me completely off guard

on the night you said to me

I just don't love you more.

 

The White Stripes-I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself

 

 

I just don't know what to do with myself

I don't know what to do with myself

planning everything for two

doing everything with you

and now that we're through

I just don't know what to do

 

I just don't know what to do with myself

I don't know what to do with myself

movies only make me sad

parties make me feel as bad

cause I'm not with you

I just don't know what to do

 

like a summer rose

needs the sun and rain

I need your sweet love

to beat love away

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sure you've heard of the song La camisa negra(Juanes is the singer) which,if you understand Spanish is also about a beart broken man

[Jonboy582]

I also noticed this when I had my mate in the car who just split up with her boyfriend then Ne-Yo - So Sick came on and just saw her face drop so had to quickly change it. I don'tlike the song anyway its overplayed. And I think its your more aware of these songs rather than they are played more.

 

And as for other crying songs I remember "Symple Plan - Welcome to my life" used to make me cry all the time when broken up from my ex. And "Uncle Kracker" always makes me cry even when im happy for some reason it just triggers something in me lol.

James Blunt - Goodbye my lover

 

Did I disappoint you or let you down?

Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?

'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,

Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.

So I took what's mine by eternal right.

Took your soul out into the night.

It may be over but it won't stop there,

I am here for you if you'd only care.

You touched my heart you touched my soul.

You changed my life and all my goals.

And love is blind and that I knew when,

My heart was blinded by you.

I've kissed your lips and held your head.

Shared your dreams and shared your bed.

I know you well, I know your smell.

I've been addicted to you.

 

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

 

I am a dreamer but when I wake,

You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.

And as you move on, remember me,

Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.

I've watched you sleeping for a while.

I'd be the father of your child.

I'd spend a lifetime with you.

I know your fears and you know mine.

We've had our doubts but now we're fine,

And I love you, I swear that's true.

I cannot live without you.

 

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

 

And I still hold your hand in mine.

In mine when I'm asleep.

And I will bear my soul in time,

When I'm kneeling at your feet.

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.

I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

 

Nickelback - Far Away

 

This time, This place

Misused, Mistakes

Too long, Too late

Who was I to make you wait

Just one chance

Just one breath

Just in case there's just one left

'Cause you know, you know, you know

 

[CHORUS]

That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I miss you

far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

and you'll never go

Stop breathing if

I don't see you anymore

 

On my knees, I'll ask

Last chance for one last dance

'Cause with you, I'd withstand

All of hell to hold your hand

I'd give it all

I'd give for us

Give anything but I won't give up

'Cause you know, you know, you know

 

[CHORUS]

 

So far away

(So far away)

Been far away for far too long

So far away

(So far away)

Been far away for far too long

But you know, you know, you know

 

I wanted

I wanted you to stay

'Cause I needed

I need to hear you say

That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I forgive you

For being away for far too long

So keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

Believe it

Hold on to me and, never let me go

Keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

Believe it

Hold on to me and, never let me go

(Keep breathing)

Hold on to me and, never let me go

(Keep breathing)

Hold on to me and, never let me go

I work in the radio biz. I've been in it for over 20 years. We do that on purpose to annoy you.

 

Just kidding. Actually, I think the reason songs like that become popular is the fact that they are so relatable, and they do make people feel the artist is singing to them about what they're currently going through.

 

Example: There was a really sappy, cheesy song out...oh, about 10 years ago now. It was written to be a tear-jerker. I'd have people calling me during my show after I played it, and they'd be sobbing....and wanting to hear it AGAIN. Huh? What? Didn't get it then, and I don't get it now. I also don't get the call-in request love songs shows like Delilah. But that kind of show (with the right host) does very well ratings-wise...which means a lot of people are listening.

 

I'm working in another format now, and sappy love songs aren't part of the mix here. (thank God.)

[BellaDonna]

I always tell my friends to banish music all together while they are going through a breakup, unless it's Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive.

[shes2smart]

Eh, my favorite break-up was always "One More Minute" by Weird Al. It includes the lines:

 

"I'd rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass than spend one more minute with you"

 

And the show-stopping line:

 

"You left me alone in the gas station of love and I have to use the self-service pumps"

 

Why wallow in tears when you can laugh & cry at the same time?

All true. Suddenly you just appear to pay a lot of attention to those songs.

I don't like sappy love songs too. I listen to a wide range of music.

Another song I like is from Coco Rosie - Good Friday

I once fell in love with you

Just because the sky turned from gray

Into blue

It was a good friday

The streets were open and empty

No more passion play

On st. Nicholas avenue

I believe in st. Nicholas

Its a different type of santa clause

 

Not much text, lol. But really their music is BEAUTIFUL. (if you like this kind of music)

[enolaton]

Well, here's the thing... the songs are ALWAYS there. BUT, when you're in love and happy, you don't notice sad songs. When you're going through a break-up, you notice EVERYTHING!!! - ALL the happy couples, and ALL the sad songs. It seems as if the world could not have had better timing... all of a sudden, there are 50 sad songs on the radio. Coincidence? I think not.

Theory of a Dead man - Since you've been gone.. just listening too now...

 

it seems that nothing ever goes my way

Since you broke my heart when you left that day

There's nowhere to go so just stay with me

Cuz since you've been gone, I've been beggin' you please

 

To tell me you're not alright

And you needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

To tell me you're not okay

And you needed me all along

Since you've been gone

I need to hear from you

Since you've been gone

 

It seems that every time you swear to God that you're leaving

I'm down on my knees beggin' you to stay

There's nowhere to go so just stay with me

Cuz since you've been gone, I've been beggin' you please

 

To tell me you're not alright

And you needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

To tell me you're not okay

And you needed me all along

Since you've been gone

 

Please don't leave me here alone

Just stay awhile

Make me smile

Please don't leave me here alone

Just stay awhile

And, baby, smile

 

Since you've been gone

I need to hear from you

Since you've been gone

I need to hear you say

 

Tell me you're not alright

And you needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

Tell me you're not okay

And you needed me all along

Since you've been gone

I need to hear you say

Since you've been gone

Don't tell me

Don't tell me

I need to hear you say

James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover.....It was played so much on the radio as soon as she left me and it tore my heart each time I heard it.

 

The bit where it goes...

 

"And I still hold your hand in mine.

In mine when I'm asleep.

And I will bear my soul in time,

When I'm kneeling at your feet."

 

...is so emotional for me, yet so true.

 

I still hold her hand when I'm asleep.

[Spugly Fuglet]

This one song

walking wounded

 

 

Out amongst the walking wounded, every face on every bus

Is you and me and him and her and nothing can replace the us I knew

Nothing can replace the us I knew

 

Now I'm never gonna let you go

Now I'm never gonna let you go

And now I know I had a choice though you never made it clear to me

I thought you never felt it deeply

Now I'm never gonna let you go

Now I'm never gonna let you go

'Cause I could have loved you forever

Oh I could have loved you forever

 

What do you want from me? , Are you trying to punish me?

Punish me for loving you, punish me for giving to you

Punish me for nothing I do, punish me for nothing

You punish me for nothing, for nothing

 

Out amongst the walking wounded, every face on every train

Is you and me and him and her, some days I think I could go insane

Some days I think I could go insane.

Just dos no get any better than that

Another good theory of a deadman - make up your mind

 

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine

Don't worry about me I'll be fine

Those words that you said to me why wasn't I listening

I wish I hadn't met you at all. I started thinking

I'll sit back and relax and wait for the morning

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

If we breakup, we'll wind up losing both of our minds

So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

 

Make up your mind, and I'll make up mine

Don't worry about me I'll be fine

The last time you yelled at me I swore that I heard you say

I wish I hadn't met you at all. I started thinking

I'll sit back and relax and wait for the morning

 

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

If we breakup, we'll wind up losing both of our minds

So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

 

When will we make up, will we break up.

Let's wake up, let's wake up

let's wake up.

 

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine

Don't worry about me I'll be fine

Those words that you said to me why wasn't I listening

I wish I hadn't met you at all. I started thinking

 

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time

If we breakup, we'll wind up losing both of our minds

So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

and do this for the last time, let's wake up, let's make up

and do this for the last time, if we break up we'll wind up losing

both of our minds, let's wake up, let's make up

I walked past my ex'x car the other night and had a quick glance inside (like you do), She had Kelly Clarksons Since youve been gone CD. It kinda upset my because thats a song when you really want to get over someone. Left me feeling there was even little chance for reconciliation.

[Daddy Bear]

I always tell my friends to banish music all together while they are going through a breakup, unless it's Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive.

then you obviously haven't heard Bloodhound Gang's depression-proof "Three Point One Four":

 

My last girlfriend didn't like me thought she might be

Most likely a d *** she just didn't excite me

Lefty? Yeah but that was alright

She was hotter than the sun but she just wasn't that bright

My mistake she was more flaky than a leper colony

I think a wooden clothespin would have been much better company

a** like a donkey acting funky gave her "L" now she's a flunky

So my love for her died quicker than a batch of Sea Monkeys

Early bird gets the worm spread your legs or spread the word

So what if I'm not the smartest peanut in the turd

I'm white which goes with everything but I can come in any color

And I'm looking for the kind of girl that reminds me of my mother

But it's hard to find a girl with a viper tattooed on her tushy

And how many girls do you know that can play the harmonica with their p * * * * *s?

Like em' easy and hot and sweet like a Rice Krispie Treat, gee

You know what I really want in a girl? Me

 

I need to find a new vagina

Any kind of new vagina

It's hard to rhyme a word like vagina

Calvin Klein? Kinda. North Carolina?

 

Women are like dog doo, hear me through, don't interrupt

It's just the older that they are the easier they get to pick up

I'd fill the generation gap clean the cobwebs from her rafters

Old hens would rather put out than be put out to the pasture

No age just ain't a gauge I like my girls like my cheese

Preferably for me fat-free American singles only

I want my next chick anorexic, the winner is the thinner

Won't have to take her skinny a * * out to a fancy dinner

Like Sizzler she got a beef we'll chew the fat

If I forget to put the seat up I can put up with her crap

Let her lash out and crack the whip but not in bed I don't play rough

No I can't be tied down with a girl that wants me tied up

Just independent like NOFX, smart like Janeane Garafolo

She'd use big words to make fun of me so that I would never know

Bestow upon me all her wisdom of the Dewey Decimal System, gee

You know what I really want in a girl? Me

 

I need to find a new vagina

Any kind of new vagina

It's hard to rhyme a word like vagina

Kevin Klein? Kinda. South Carolina?

[ShroomzGod]

here we go...

Alkaline Trio - My friend Peter

 

I dont care who you've been sleeping with these days

You're outta my hair

It's growing just above my smiling face that I wear

Every night I drink myself to sleep

Not thinking about you

Not thinking about anything at all

 

I don't care who you've been dining with these days

It's more than fair

Much rather be drinking anyways

With my friend Peter

Who lives so * * * *ing far away

Yet not as far as you

Even though you live right down my * * * *ing street

 

And I'm tired of sleeping with myself

I'm tired, all these drinks and drugs no longer help

I'm tired of lying about not thinking of you

Maybe my friend Peter can tell me what to do

 

I dont care who you've been kissing on these days

It's out of my hands

and in my mouth with such a pleasant taste

I need a beer to wash it all away without a trace

And then i'll drink 23 more

To wipe this stupid smile off my * * * *ing face

 

I'm tired of sleeping with myself

I'm tired, all those drinks and drugs no longer help

I'm tired of lying about not thinking of you

Maybe my friend Peter can tell me what to do

 

Grab a friend and forget about it...

[Orlander]

I agree with Donna. While the sad songs can help you connect with the feelings of others who are/have experienced what you are going through (afterall, misery does love company) I can only say that if you are going to listen to music, make it inspirational, motivating and self-empowering music.

 

I listen to the following songs...

 

Can You Feel It -- The Jackson 5

Walking with a Ghost -- Tegan and Sara

Rascal Flatts -- Feels Like Today

Try Again -- Aaliyah

Walking Away -- Craig David

Gotta Get Thru This -- Daniel Bedingfield

Youth -- Matisyahu

What do you Want from Me -- Monaco

Let Me Roll -- Seal

 

Those are just what I have on my psp at the moment.
