”Mahobbat karna humare bs me nhi h per us mahobbat se durr chle Jana vo humare bs me hai…”

Love is neither conquered nor achieved.

Love is like a gust of air that can even make a banyan tree fall and consequently when this love breaks, it leaves you shattered. Your heart breaks into a million pieces making it difficult for you to face the world. Always wondering over the question- “Why did you give up on me when you loved me ?” Heartbreaks hurt even more than physical pain. It destroys you from inside. It kills you. The days seem extremely long. And thanks to our talented musicians and singers who had the courage and passion for composing and singing heartbreak songs when every part of your body is broken. And sometimes music helps to bring out your emotions.

So some of them topping the list are:

#1: Channa Mereya

A song which surely brings tears falling down your eyes. It highlights the concept of selfless love and how for one’s happiness you are ready to go any limits. And with Arijit Singh singing this, it brings in the required feel. Interestingly the song seems to celebrate break up, although the emotions are bizarre yet relatable and heart touching.

“Andhera tera maine le liya  Mera ujla sitaara tere naam kiya.

Mehfil me teri hum naa rahe jo  Gham toh nahi hai, gham toh nahi hai  Qisse humare nazdeekiyon ke  Kam to nahi hai, kam to nahi hai….

#2: Love will tear us apart

Joy Division by this songs states that we are simple human beings, made and shattered by small moments and powerless and fragile against the wave of emotions. It gives the listeners the mixed feeling of pleasure and pain when in thrall with some other being.

Stay a minute”

#4: A Million Reasons

Lady Gaga after her breakup with Taylor Kinney was seen working on her new album- Joanne. So fitting this album aptly, the song- A million reasons was composed. The album was about crying, mourning and the emotion of coming back together. It tells the feel of dumping someone, the horrifying decision one has to take.

“You’re giving me a million reasons to let you go”

” Baby I just need one good one to stay.” – the ending on an unfortunate truth.

#5: Jag Soona Soona Laage
