Break-up songs

Hi,
I don't know if you have any break-up songs that after you break up with someone you find yourself listening to the songs or maybe song over and over and over non-stop. This last break-up, I was sure I didn't have any. Till my roommates and a few friends of mine, started to point them out to me. In fact even my iTunes would beg to differ with me saying I don't have any break-up songs.
I thought I would dedicate a full post to the songs of my healing heart and to say thank-you to all the song writers and musicians out there that composed and sang these wonderful songs. I would like to share them with you. (I hope the links to them work.)
The first one I love so very much is from the 1960's era of music and its, Downtown by Petula Clark. When I listen to Downtown, it makes me happy and I want to hear birds chirping and I want to ride the Trax to Downtown Salt Lake City and explore to find fun restaurants to eat at!
The next artist if you haven't heard of her you should check her music out I really love her voice. The artists name is: Rachel Platten, There is actually two of her songs I have listened to non-stop the first is called Nothing ever happens, and the other is overwhelmed. I love both of these. I listen to Nothing Ever Happens, when I am about to leave my apt, to go hang out with friends, I guess you could say it is the song that pumps me up to go out and have fun. The other one Overwhelmed is how I feel a lot and I love how she describes the feeling as it is something everyone in this world can relate to.
There are two more, which I have listened too just as much. One is by Kimbra Gotye and the song is called, Somebody that I use to know. I love this one because it describes my break-up, and I love how it explains all the emotions which I have felt over the last few weeks. In fact anyone who has been through a break-up could relate to it.
The last and not least there is one by Drake and Rihanna called Take Care. Take care is one that I listened to, while I was deciding to break-up or stay together with my ex, even now though, I still listen to it.  I know every single soul who has loved someone, has been hurt by someone in the past. I guess in away this songs gives me hope for the future, where I will be in a relationship and I will be able to take care of my man and he will be able to take care of me.
You might have guessed, as I have written this post I have listened to these songs over and over. I really love them, each song has it special place in the break-up, and healing of my heart.
I know my posts lately have been on me trying to heal my heart. The other night I was hanging out with a few friends and the thought came to me, "I am single and I can date whoever I want to" the thought of it made me shutter at first, then it started to sink in and it is true I am single, and I can go on dates with whoever I want to. I don't have a boyfriend anymore he dumped me. I am free to flirt and go out on dates with other guys in this world. As hard as the first few are going to be, I might be ready to try it out, again. Then, maybe my posts will go from my hurting heart to how beautiful the world is. There is one thing I do know that I don't need to settle, and I should enjoy my single hood as long as I am in it. I need to get out so I can be writing about my adventures that are out there in this world for me to find. Maybe I will travel the world and blog about it and all the amazing people out there who I could discover.
It is getting late and I am tired and am so ready for bed! Yay!
As always, Thanks to all of you out there that have been reading my posts. You are all awesome!
