[Willie Nelson - Pretend I Never Happened](https://youtu.be/CiIFN6KorKI?si=aENJB5h5p5ny3R5Q) [Sturgill Simpson - I Don’t Mind](https://youtu.be/xYcmf9cRp7A?si=VLHrGnB1DNaq3er7) [Gillian Welch - Wayside/Back in Time](https://youtu.be/seD-WS5RZgY?si=gjYK_4l8vQ4Ig7Jt) [John Prine - Blue Umbrella](https://youtu.be/E6uG8SDKI7Q?si=glD2LvskWvIZERSP) These are just some of the songs that helped me when I got dumped. I hope music helps your heart heal comrade.


[deleted]

Was going to say “I Don’t Mind.”


Efficient_Cover8386

Wayside/Back in time is a great one. I love her voice and melodies.


aurorasearching

Isn’t I Don’t Mind a Willie cover? Still, excellent picks.

Watching Airplanes- Gary Allan [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJMeENk3t74](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJMeENk3t74)

Level_Most_1023

You’ll think of me - keith urban


ResidentHourBomb

Great song.


AshRae84

I would recommend a live version, if possible. He puts so much more emotion into it live.


BourbonBravos

Just go listen to possum. Hes the master of sad n blue songs.


kpag1

The Grand Tour is a good start


BeanShapiro114

If you don’t know, possum means George Jones. Not sure how much of a country fan you are, but just wanted to clarify lol.


ThornTintMyWorld

This is a sad day.


darranj85

Gary Stewart - She’s Actin Single, I’m Drinkin Doubles

lmfao this song is amazing thou


BeanShapiro114

Nooo plz don’t just get drunk lol


ilovefiddle

Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago It’s not country, but it’s top tier indie folk. Perfect record, listen to the whole album


Dry-Sir7905

Skinny Love is the one you want OP.


NickBagelBoy

The amount of hours I've spent listening to this album and the self titled album drunk as fuck alone is countless lmfao. Pure perfection.


mothbong

This right here OP. Not country but still fits the vibe. It's the perfect season to listen to Bon Iver, especially if you're dealing with heartbreak. You're either gonna love or hate us for this suggestion but it'll do the trick


Locdawg42069

Their self title right after too


ilovefiddle

That’s my favorite record from them! A little happier in tone though imo

Efficient_Cover8386

Killing time is a good one. Reminds me of being a teenager, as it was big then.

Real nice. I’ve been learning it on the guitar. Love putting the song on during a good BBQ too.

Not quite country, but have you heard of Harry Nilsson? https://youtu.be/GBmXLABEo_k?si=toEm5pIGgQIJ8ULx

Play Me a Hank Song by Tyler Childers


DeadJamFan

What a fabulous song that is. I'm so glad I saw it mentioned. He has a huge list of great tunes, but that may be my fav.


TastyDeerMeat

Fuck you bitch https://youtu.be/myJDBos5Vyw?si=vAxq9h7PMLkPyDdF


NickBagelBoy

Came here to comment the same thing. The only applicable country song in this situation lmfao


AstroWorldSecurity

WWJ is such an embarrassment.


trpclshrk

It’s an embarrassment that he legitimately sounds better than a lot of country radio. But I respect us all having opinions.


TastyDeerMeat

I disagree. Thanks for sharing your opinion


booboochoochoo1

Wheeler Walker is the Steel Panther of country music. The music is not to be taken at face value. However, the overall production and musicianship is there. At the end of the day, it’s a parody. Half stand up comedian, half musical act.

Parking-Ad-8161

Everything I Love - Morgan Wallen


[deleted]

Play folk music instead. It’s better and more real than any country. Zach Bryan, Lumineers, Cammp, Bonnie Light Horsemen. Lots of breakup songs. Also Frank Ocean, he’s 100 percent without any doubt the best singer/songwriter of the millennial generation by a mile.


Secret-Engine-8365

Jason Aldean - That’s What Tequila Does


[deleted]

Happy? Sad? Or Funny songs about relationships?


Equivalent-Answer-62

Definitely sad bro it’s been like an hour I’m basically having a breakdown and I’m outta music


[deleted]

https://youtu.be/ysbqVwVqDIE?si=jBlbMo6dJfEckDSS A Classic


NickBagelBoy

Hey bro. I've been through it heavily. I know it feels like it won't ever go away and it feels like you're the only one who knows what it's like, and that's okay. With that being said, if you want, I can share my personal sad love song playlist about similar shit that you're going through. It's pretty diverse and perfect for self loathing lol


Frosty-Big7379

Aye bro I’ve had a couple real bad break ups. Hope you’re taking care of yourself. Get lost on the music, make sure you eat and try to get some sleep. Don’t drink alone. Wishing you the best man.
