Western pop songs to help you get over a broken heart (61–70)

It starts with a guitar-sound intro that evokes a scene of snow falling softly, and I’m completely disarmed by the gentle vocal delivery and the root bass.

When you’re heartbroken, listening to it will definitely make you cry.

Cry and cry as much as you need, and let’s recover from the heartbreak.

The lyrics say that when you’re going through hard times or unbearable suffering, remembering the phrase “let it be,” meaning to let things take their course, can blow those adversities away.

It’s a song that makes you want to whisper, just as it says, “let it be.” The piano melody sinks deep into the heart.

The Black Eyed Peas usually have a lot of thrilling, upbeat, and cool tracks, but this song talks about love and is something you can listen to calmly.

The title, “Where Is the Love?”, perfectly captures how you feel after a breakup, and there’s no doubt you’ll relate to it.

BONO’s vocals really pierce a deeply wounded heart.

The guitar sounds are soothing, and every element of the music is calming.

Personally, the section after the first chorus especially resonates with me.

I recommend it when you’ve had your heart broken and want to have a good cry.

CAN’T HELP FALLING IN LOVEUB40

Just like the title suggests—“I Can’t Help Falling in Love”—this is the kind of song you want to listen to when you’re still hung up after a breakup and absolutely, absolutely can’t forget them.

The reggae sound is very soothing and even has a healing effect.
