Not a song in particular (although I'm sure I could land on one if need be), but I've found that anything by Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks instantly puts me in a better mood. Luckily they have a huge catalog of music so I never get bored!

When I'm going through a rough time I listen to a lot of music. I do that in general, but specifically I'll listen to Wrapped Around Your Finger by 5 Seconds of summer and One More Light by Linkin Park. I listen to a lot more but those two seem to help me the most.

Everyone has their tough times but not all tough times are the same, so you can't necessarily listen to the same song for every time. You have to find the song(s) that fit best for that situation at hand. So no, I don't have just one song for tough times I have a variety of songs. You've got to have options!

The songs that help me get through a tough time are breaking the habit by linking park, Warrior by Imagine Dragons, and television rules the nation by Daft Punk.

Nutshell by Alice In Chains, When You Can’t Sleep at Night by Of Mice and Men, or Paralyzed by NF are always the songs I find myself listening to whenever I’m facing a rough time.

I don't know why, but when I feel down I listen to Back to Black by Amy Winehouse. Something about singing it on the top of my lungs helps me channel my anger and sadness.

Jazz definitely helps me get through difficult times in my life. Its silent, yet scintillating melody relaxes my weary soul.

i don't have a particular song, usually it's just the genre that helps me get through times, before i'd always listen to songs with so much anger and angst but now i prefer songs that just make me contemplate, sometimes even more sad but it helps plus it feels good

Latest Review: Happy Healing by Dominique Bourlet

Post by Tzara Drusak »

I got hooked on Andra Day's Rise Up and Jessie J's Who You Are in a really, really depressing slump I fell into early this year. Whenever I was feeling putout I'd just jack my earphones way up and blast my skull with repeats of these two until I felt better. Oddly enough, Lemon by N.E.R.D. and Rihanna starred in this playlist, as well as Shakira's Try Everything.
And in the end, we were all just humans... Drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness.

Absolutely. Anything that deadmau5 makes. He's helped me over several years. I'm a huge fan: he's able to make emotion pop out of electronic music with no lyrics.

Really, anything from Melanie Martinez helps me. Crybaby and Mrs. Potato Head are probably my top favorites.

Hello everyone.....this is my first post here. Songs have great influence on our mood.If one is going through tough times then listening to motivational song really helps and I listen to the " Fight song" by Rachel Platten. The chorus of the song boosts up the spirit ,its a great song to listen when feeling low.

Since I'm a huge fan of Sung Si Kyung, I often listen to his songs whenever I feel depressed. I find that his "Present Love" and "On the Street" songs have helped me not to think about the negative things that were running inside my head. His sweet voice has helped me out a lot and I'll always be grateful.
