Sad Songs
What are your favorite Sad songs or music in general when you are feeling really down or heartbroken?
Last time I felt that was when they cancelled my fave TV show.. I was so sad and disappointed.. and sometimes when I feel that way, I want to listen to sad songs and have a good cry lol. Anyone ever felt that way? :( :confused:
Any way, it doesn't last too long, fortunately, but sometimes it feels ok to feel and try to process the bad things that happen to us.
One of my favorite Sad songs is 'How Do You Mend a Broken Heart' by the Bee Gees.
