music for a broken heart


looks like my girlfriend and i are not going to make it. not because we don't love each other - we do - we simply live too far away from each other and for a couple of very good reasons neither one of us can move. that's enough on that painful topic but i would love to hear people's suggestions regarding music to get me through this very, very difficult time.

thanks,

If you want to explore the depths of lost love, try Mickey Newberry Frisco Mabel Joy. I know he is classified as a country musician, but the song writing is absolute poetry. Not upbeat, but helped me get through the worst loss.

A completely different, much more uplifting record is Graham Nash Songs for Beginners. Again, this one worked for me and I still listen to it regularly.

Finally, try some early Tom Waits (first 2 records) or Lenord Cohen. Poetry of loss often is the poetry of real gain.

Keep an open heart... Edward
