Music list for Codependants I'm still on my first week of NC and have been listening to a lot of music. I saw a bunch of music threads on here but none of the ones I saw were for those of us who are/were in a relationship with an addict so I thought I'd start one. The goal of this is to express the view from our side of the fence as well as share any songs that helped you in your recovery! (Btw if one does already exist please let me know. Thanks!) |

We've got a couple of good-sized threads in the FFA forum. They cover all different genres of music, if you're interested! http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...us-alanon.html http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...983-music.html |
Thanks Firesprite! Im still learning how to navigate!! Appreciate it! :) |
I'll add a few of my favorites, although these are really songs that have gotten me through hard times. Rush -- "Bravado" (We will pay the price/But we will not count the cost") Sister Hazel -- "Thank You" ("You were the one who taught me what I don't need/And I thank you, I thank you for that...now just leave me alone") Rush -- "The Garden" (see my signature below) Van Halen -- "Mine All Mine" ("Stop looking out, start looking in/Be your own best friend/Stand up and say, HEY, this is mine!") Tesla -- "Look @ Me" ("That was then/Take a look at me now") "Bravado" is a personal favorite because the message is positive: do what you have to do to get to where you want to be... |
I think this one is the Codie Theme Song...it is empowering and uplifting I think, makes me want to dance! I Will Survive~Gloria Gaynor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SxqJsYFL-Q |
I had to come back & add Meghan Trainor's "No" after really listening to the lyrics for the first time this morning. I'm STILL laughing & I'm totally using this the next time I go out with my girlfriends! NO Lyrics I think it's so cute and I think it's so sweet How you let your friends encourage you to try and talk to me But let me stop you there, oh, before you speak [Chorus] Nah to the ah to the no, no, no My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the, no, no, no My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the no, no, no [Verse 1] First you gonna say you ain't runnin' game Thinkin' I'm believing every word Call me beautiful, so original Telling me I'm not like other girls I was in my zone before you came along Now I'm thinking maybe you should go Blah, blah, blah I be like nah to the ah to the no, no, no [Pre-Chorus] All my ladies, listen up If that boy ain't giving up Lick your lips and swing your hips Girl all you gotta say is... [Chorus] My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the no, no, no My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the no, no, no [Verse 2] Thank you in advance, I don't wanna dance (nope) I don't need your hands all over me If I want a man, then I'mma get a man But it's never my priority I was in my zone, before you came along Don't want you to take this personal Blah, blah, blah I be like nah to the ah to the no, no, no [Pre-Chorus] All my ladies, listen up If that boy ain't giving up Lick your lips and swing your hips Girl, all you gotta say is... [Chorus] My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the no, no, no My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no You need to let it go, you need to let it go Need to let it go Nah to the ah to the no, no, no [Bridge] I'm feeling... Untouchable, untouchable I'm feeling... Untouchable, untouchable I'm feeling... Untouchable, untouchable I'm feeling... Love it! :lmao |
I adore this Cloud Cult song when I'm having trouble holding things together: No One Said it Would be Easy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQyhNfmjcOg This is also good from Cloud Cult: Take your Medicine The lyrics are good for this one even without the music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0xt1QVsigc Bought myself a new look Something gave me another chance to see Each time, each time, I will try to do better By now, by now, is where I guess I belong Pull my fist from my mouth I beat myself for a quarter century Remind, remind That it's bigger than me Dissolve, dissolve Into evergreens These are things that I keep hidden in belly I can't see them but they control my life For a moment you could see right through me See right through me Help me make this right Look at all those skeletons running from their closets Get them in the light These are things that I keep hidden in belly I can't see them but they control my life For a moment you could see right through me See right through me Help me make this right Look at all those skeletons running from their closets Get them in the light Get them in the light You can take it in stride Or you can take it right between the eyes Suck up, suck up And take your medicine It's a good day, it's a good day To face the hard things Pull my fist from my mouth I beat myself for a quarter century Remind, remind That it's bigger than me Dissolve, dissolve nto evergreens We found Beautiful babies Sleeping in our ribs Get them in the light Get them in the light |
