Can't Get Enough-- Breakup Edition (July 7th)

Hey Lovies!

For those of you who are not familiar, this is the blog for the podcast "20- Somethings Doing Nothing." I like to come on here every so often to talk about things that I wouldn't normally discuss on the podcast.

The "Can't Get Enough" posts are all about music that I just can't get enough of. Typically they're new songs that you may not have heard of, sometimes they're very familiar songs... and NOW I'm doing one that's dedicated to breakup anthems.

I know, I know. Everyone is currently doing summer playlists... but considering I was recently dumped (for the second time this year-- safe to say I'm not too good with relationships) I figured I would put one together for all those ladies and fellas out there who are going through it right now. I even got some of my Twitter followers to chime in with their favorite breakup songs. Those will come at the end.

Hope this helps anyone else out there going through a breakup. Relationships are crap. (I'm not cynical or anything...)

Let's start off with some newer breakup songs, shall we?

1. "New Rules"- Dua Lipa

For all you ladies that are just SO-EFFIN-OVER-IT but can't seem to let go. You'll find this jam empowering. Follow homegirl's rules and you'll be in the clear. I know, you probably won't but it'll be a nice reminder to listen to as you drive home from his apartment after spending the night. (No judgement-- we've all been there.)

MY DEBUT ALBUM #DL1 IS OUT NOW!!! A massive thank you to everyone buying and streaming it 🌹🌹🌹 THANK YOU MY LOVES 🚀💖 https://wbr.ec/dualipa-album Follow me online: https://wbr.ec/website_dualipa https://wbr.ec/facebook_dualipa https://wbr.ec/twitter_dualipa https://wbr.ec/instagram_dualipa

2. "Find Yourself'- Great Good Fine Ok/Before You Exit

Kinda sad, BUT still upbeat. The chorus--"So don't let someone find you until you find yourself"-- is a clear message. Embrace yourself, love yourself and then when the timing is right you'll find the significant other you need.

Available now: http://smarturl.it/find-yourself Lyrics: I've been waiting Half my life Just to be the one to take you home tonight We can make it If we try But I want to wait until the time is right Tell me what's on your mind I can't get you off mine Are

3. "Waste of Time"- Snow Tha Product

Now, I don't care if you cheated on him or he cheated on you or even if no one cheated on anyone. There wasn't any cheating in my relationship, but I relate to every other aspect of this song. It's guaranteed to get you riled and singing along to that sh*t either way.

4. "Halfway"- Jake Miller

Jake Miller's new album has a bunch of great breakup songs on it, set to great beats that don't make you want to cry but still make you feel something. This is one of my favorites. Moral of the song: if you're not down, get the f*ck out. No time for half-assing.

5. "I Only Lie When I Love You"- Royal Blood

For all those people at the total "f*ck it" stage. I scream these lyrics at the top on my lungs and it's almost medicinal.

Pre-order "How Did We Get So Dark?"

Bonus: "Can't Help Myself"-Jake Miller

Remember how I said Jake Miller's album is full of breakup song gems. This is my second favorite and didn't feel right not adding it considering it's a f*cking BOP.

Okay, time for a few throwbacks and songs suggested on Twitter!
