My friend just recently got out of a long term relationship and I know she loves listening to music whenever she's down so does anyone know any good break up songs that are uplifting?

girl..there's no breakup song with beautiful lyric.
Songs for breakup are usually sad.
Just tell her to find something else to do.

Evidence - Urbandub [listenin' to now anyways]

rage against the machine. any album. any song.

A classic song: I Will Survive (:

LAST FAREWELL by BIG BANG : *Just pray she's not korean and does not understand what they are singing* hmm I like the beat makes u dance

is your friend chinese? she can listen to Candy Lo and Wang Lee Hom - 好心分手 (Better to Be Apart). i alwaysss loved that song.

i also like that one song by P!nk - Who Knew

or...maybe Epik High - Love Love Love?

wellll. take your pick. =)

Maybe some happy upbeat songs to get over it and to get her mind off of it. I really don't know...

Alicia Keys - Like You'll Never See Me Again
Daughtry - Over You
Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry
Jordan Sparks - Tattoo
Rihanna - Take a Bow

I've tried finding some uplifting songs too... They're pretty difficult to find, but these songs seem to help me up.

hmm

acceptance - over you
alien ant farm - forgive & forget
the all-american rejects - swing swing
the all-american rejects - the last song
bayside - devotion & desire
bleed the dream - sarcastic farewell
blue october - hate me
breaking benjamin - forget it
copeland - no one really wins
frou frou - let go
jet - look what you've done
maroon 5 - makes me wonder
motion city soundtrack - broken heart
the postal service - against all odds
rilo kiley - breakin' up
craig david - I'm sorry
eamon - f it
leona lewis - better in time
loveholic - 신기루

iono...there are a lot of breakup songs I guess. lol

Paula DeAnda-So Cold

"When the one you love lets you go
And you got no one to hold, yeah, yeah
That's the way you make me feel
On the other side, yes I know
Now it's time to let you go, yeah, yeah
Love can be so cold
Ain't it cold
When the one you love lets you go
And you got no one to hold, yeah, yeah
That's the way you make me feel"

this one got me through it after playing 100x times ( a friend sent it to me then ) honestly nothing happy happy but changes your perspective

RJA - Cat and Mouse
Lee Soo Young - La La La

when i broke up with my gf i listened to

start again - tha gift
tell me - bow wow
ice box remix - omarion
Im tryna part 1 and part 2 - omarion

but all those are from a guys perspective =O not sure it will help

I know for girls, "Over It" by Katherine McPhee is a good one. I recommended it to one of my friends after she broke up with her boyfriend, and she loved the song. Made her feel a lot better.

XD the first song that popped into my head was



"so yesterday" hilary duff XD

Chrisette Michele - Be Ok
Destiny's Child - Survivor LOL
TLC - Damaged

I ono Damaged by TLC was always a good song for depressing times for me. Sometimes it didn't help me feel better though, haha. She needs to listen to something happy and upbeat.. or at least mellow and inspiring

Lol I remember the day after my first gf broke up with me, my friend (unknowing) coincidentally send me The Beatles - Yesterday.

I was like...WHAT ARE TRYING TO DO TO ME! lol

yea....
Big Bang songs pop...
sitable for her...
Big Bang's lies oso not bad...
Super junior's life could get better..

That old song . . .

Eamon - Fxcc it, I don't want you bacc.

Its not really "uplifting" but it helped me smile. I listened to this sooo much when my ex broke up with me 8months ago.


I still blast it.


(:
Hahahahaha.

mostly break up songs are meant to be sad.. =="
and that sucks.. coz' it'll just make you remember all your memories together.. haha !
but anyway.. there are lots of songs runnin around my mind.. i can't even remember one .. haha !

iwould say
better in time - leona lewis

yep2
better in time- leona lewis
another you - cascada

Lil wayne- go DJ
Lil wayne- lollipop

No Doubt - Underneath it All
Once : Motion Picture Soundtrack - Leave
Once : Motion Picture Soundtrack - Say It To Me Now.
Sublime - Santeria
Julie London - Cry me A River
Lily Allen - Smile
Kate Nash - Duckhead (warning explicit lyrics)

I like:
Goodbye My Lover - James Blunt

It's a lovely song =)

lol, the first song that popped into my head was:

Jinks - Hope You Die (feat. Beautiful)

but then again, it really depends on what kind of break up it was... the beat's pretty good though, but if she's the one who dumped him then this probably isn't the best song

Those are NOT break up songs

also agree with 'Better in time', really good song.

Selfish ~ Asia Cruise
Say goodbye ~ Chris Brown
Lonely days ~ Kasely Butler
Moving on ~ Taio Cruz
Fades away ~ Trey Songz (highly recommend this one, great R&B song)
Defeated ~ Tynisha Keli

Uplifting?


When I'm sad, I usually don't like listening to sad stuff... makes you more depressed... I would listen to Melt my Heart to Stone (Adele)?

sorry, i don't remember any good "breakup" songs...

Probably...
Coldplay - Violet Hill

"If you love me, won't you let me know?"



listen to it! it's amazing.

Katharine Mcphee - over it...

That's so hard for me to do.
Alot of songs reminded me of him.
Especially the ones he sang to me! >____<
It wasn't even a breakup. Our 'thing' just ended.
Okok Ima stop just so I don't over-think about this.

Try.. Unlove You by Elise Estrada.

Jonas Brothers - Hold On. I just listened to the lyrics and it's about being strong after your heart's broken

well i wouldnt recommend any slow songs (although they are good) for a break up because it might make you feel even more sadd. but if you are looking for them.. but yeah iderno sorry hahaa i wouldnt wanna make you feel any sadder.

2 Much - Loser

Romeo - Need to be there

Lexington Bridge - Go on and Go

^^ LOLL. awwwe :[
...I feel like if I give you sad songs, it'll make her even more sad
BUT HEY. They're pretty good songs :X....
Movin On - Toya
Bye bye - Mariah Carey

Shiny - Survive This
Gabrielle - Survive This (original of the remix)
3T - Disappeared

Mmm, that's all I can find for now.

Better in Time - Leona Lewis

I am not kidding, seriously, this song is a miracle-worker.
I listen to it whenever I start to think about my ex waaaay too much and it always makes me feel better.

"Even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
(It'll all get better in time)"

And yeah, I really like Jordin Sparks - Tattoo & Mariah Carey - Shake it off as well.

LOL I don't think that song has anything to do with breakups or anything along those lines, but it's a good song to listen to I suppose. Leona Lewis' better in time or even i will survive might cheer you up.

Delta Goodrem - Be Strong
Delta Goodrem - Not Me Not I

both powerful and uplifting songs


'cause when you're in your darkest hour
And all of the light just fades away
When you're like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of gray
Well hang on and be strong

Where taking each step one day at a time
You can't loose your spirit
Let live and let live forget and forgive
It's all how you see it
And just remember keep it together
Don't you know you're never alone

'cause when you're in your darkest hour
And all of the light just fades away
When you're like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of gray
Well hang on and be strong

No you're not defeated
And soon you'll be smiling once again
Then you won't have to feel it
Let it go with the wind
Time passes us by
And know that you're allowed to cry

yeah, i totally agree with
leona lewis - better in time, but then theres also...
well, these worked for me

dj tiesto - love comes again
jay sean - all or nothing
neyo - go on girl
craig david - walking away
My Chemcial Romance - I Dont Love You
Random - I'll Try <----- listen to it you'll wont be able to stop.
Donnie J - Easier said than done
Donnie J - So Over You

Hope these work

strong by jordan taylor.


the whole song is really uplifting .
after a sad song i listen to this .
to make me happy again .

better in time by leona lewis..
it quite sad but the lyric r good..

a perfect sonnet by bright eyes

1000 no Kotoba - Koda Kumi | 1000 Words - Jade Villalon (English)

Leona Lewis - Take a bow, Yesterday, & Better in time.

All three songs are really good!

All 4 One - Goodbye...
That's all I can think of right now. [:

We might have different ideas of "uplifting" but listening to "Until I Met You" by Mest always made me feel better about a certain boy. Despite the angry words, the music is upbeat.
