what’s your comfort song? 🦋🩷🎼
hey everyone!!
i am sure this has been done before.. but i think an updated version might be helpful!!
i’ve been thinking a lot about how music can ground us when life feels a little too fast or overwhelming
for me, the song it’s alright by mother mother always helps calm me down. it feels like a huge hug and like a comforting voice reminding me that struggling is natural and human
so i wanted to ask
what’s that one song you go back to when your heart feels heavy, or when you just need to feel safe again?
or maybe a song that helps you regain consciousness when everything is spinning a bit too quickly
something that instantly calms you down or makes you feel held
i’d love to hear your comfort songs, artists, albums, anything really
feel free to share why it means so much to you too if you’re comfortable
can’t wait to make a little playlist out of your responses 🦋🩷

i know chasing cars!! such a beautiful song, always makes me tear up🥹 reminds me so much of grey's anatomy (if you've ever seen).

@trueconfidant123
the night we met is so so beautiful :) i've never heard Gallan 4, i can't wait to listen to it!! thank you so much for sharing <3
@safeplace288 I agree.
Gallan 4 is a soothing Punjabi melody. Let me know how you like it.
@safeplace288
Aww hey, I appreciate the tag! 🥰
I'll listen to your song soon, sounds really comforting!
There's a lot of songs that I find comforting, some right at the top off my mind currently- One more light and similar tracks by Linkin Park, The nights by Avicii, Mockingbird by Eminem (there's a particular slowed and reverbed version of this on youtube that's even more relaxing to listen to), the entire Folklore album by Taylor Swift, Hold On by Chord Overstreet, Sun is shining by Axwell and Ingrosso etc hehe!
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
we have SUCH a similar music taste.. i love how diverse your music is!! folklore is the BEST. litterally anything by avicii and linkin park are an immediate YES.
cant wait to listen to these :) this made my heart so happy!
@safeplace288 Aw that’s amaaaazinggg, I’d love to hear more of your recommendations too hehe! 🥰
And yesss lemme know how you like them!
@safeplace288 Thank you for the tag! 😊

Demons - Jacob Lee
@mytwistedsoul
Ouuu i have a feeling you might be a fan of Jacob Lee😜💙I just listened to conscience.. so so good. thank you so much for introducing me to him, i can't wait to hear the other two!!
@safeplace288 What gave it away? 😁 He has some amazing songs. I'm really glad you like them. (Yay!) I normally listen to heavier music. Falling in reverse, FFDP or Motionless in white. But Jacob Lee is amazing 😊

@jesusredeemedme2425 @Peanut3037, @Luckyblast1 <3
@safeplace288
aww ty for the tag
the song i rlly enjoy when i feel heavy is "dream your dream" by tryhardninja (yea it may be an old fnaf song, but it literally can hold any meaning you'd like, and the instrumental is fire)
@LuckyBlast1
just started listening!! that’s actually such a good pick, i get why you like it :) it’s got that energy that kinda lifts you up. this song is now super special to me!! thank you for sharing with me lucky🥰🫶
Hmmm I’ll have to think about this… I’ll get back to you <3
@safeplace288
Thanks for the tag🩷
For me "dandelion" by Ariana grande makes me relax instantly idk why, also she is a queen so if its a song by her i will feel happy👑
"lovers in the night" by Seori and almost all of D4vd's songs are perfect but I don't really like listening to D4vd because he did something..
Straykids songs are very energetic and distracting and remind me of the concert I went to❤️🤍🖤
My music taste is pretty random lol
@Peanut3037
aww i love this!! 🩷 “dandelion” really is such a calming song, and i totally get what you mean. i’ve heard a few of seori’s songs but not “lovers in the night,” i’ll have to check it out!
Is it okay to keep adding songs to the thread?
- Natalina by Toddy Smith
- Perfect Morning by Toddy Smith
- Symmetry by Ed Sheeran and Karan Aujla
@trueconfidant123
of course!! absolutely keep adding songs 🩷 music is so healing and such a beautiful way to connect. your contributions honestly mean so much
@safeplace288
"You Can Still Be Free" by Savage Garden. Even now 25 years or so after its release, it gives me such hope, such comfort.
@nicmidnight
that’s such a beautiful song choice 🩷 it really does have that timeless, comforting feeling to it
it means so much to me that you shared this with me :)
"Wonder" by ADOY is probably one of my top comfort songs as of right now!
@greka7
such a great choice 🩷
this song was so calming & comforting, i really enjoyed it!!
Real Life by Mimmi Bangoura
@trueconfidant123
i love songs like this one, the ones that make everything feel a little more real but comforting at the same time. you're giving me the BEST suggestions true :)
thank you C:
@safeplace288 you're welcome 🥰
Great question! Music can be so helpful sometimes to feel better some songs that helps me are: the Greatest Showman whole album haha cause its about everyone is unique and together a great team which is a nice thaught that everyone may show their true colors. Which I also find an inspiring song haha from Cyndi Lauper and Phil Collins version is nice too. Also Let it be from The Beatles cause that one is for all situations. When im angry I like rock and metal music. Thats just good sometimes too haha scream a bit and just let go. Oh and behind the horizon from rock dog movie its just about dreaming passed the shitness sometimes and just beautiful song. And adhd song Turslow I know long time ago but recoginization oh and driving home for Christmas which i think of as in driving home to family or others throughout the year
@Steve34
I adore the greatest showman album!! it is actually so deep and beautiful if you listen to the lyrics. I really like rewrite the stars (:
The beetles are an absolute go-too. my favorite song by them at the moment is While My Guitar Gentley Weeps.
I feel like movies either make the best music, or make music SO much better. Maybe it's the scenes or the context given to the songs by the movie?
I really loved your response&suggestions. I am adding these all to my playlist right now!!🫂💗
@safeplace288
The greatest showman, awesome choice 💜
Yeey another greatest showman songs fan! 🌟 I agree and rewrite the stars is such a great duet. I so hope everyone is able to" rewrite the stars" when they need it the most. Oh that's such a great song too! Very peaceful to listen to. Yes I think so too. I especially like that with movies is added storytelling to the song and visualization helps to think of what the song means I think and the context yes for sure! I'm glad you like them :) and hope they can send you much joy and feel good and hope with warmth when you especially need it. 🫂🌟
@Steve34
You really did bring me so much joy. Another one that brings me tear-y comfort is Never Enough.🥹
I just really love that movie hehe.
I'm curious, what is your favourite Beatles song?
thats really nice to hear ✨ Ah yes I think thats a very strong song. I honestly have cried to that song a time too. I dont cry often but that one hits the right snare. And the singer has such meaning in her voice. I mean has sang with much meaning haha yeah its a great movie I think so too Do you also like the songs From now on and Come alive? ah I think I like all of those songs Million Dreams makes me dream about a world where everything is full of colour and theres nothing but goodness and peace. It helps me to relax sometimes.
My favourite Beatles song besides let it be? Hm I think Here comes the Sun and hey Jude but yellow submarine is also just fun I think haha o and Twist and Shout. Sorry coukdnt really choose between those i hope you dont mind haha which are you other favourite Beatles song or songs?
@Steve34
that’s such a lovely way to describe it!! i completely get what you mean. A Million Dreams really does have that pure, hopeful feeling that makes you imagine a softer world. and From Now On and Come Alive are both incredible too, they give me such an energy boost!!
Hey Jude is one of those songs that just makes you feel understood no matter your mood. of course you can pick a few!! a ton of their songs are tied in first place for me aswell c":
Thanks and really nice that the greatest showman songs make you so feel good too! Oh last one I should mention is to the other side! Its a fun duet and cause really quick I always love to sing that one haha The Greatest Showman songs have led me through roller coasters. They are a true inspiration. Yeah an energy boost for sure!
Ah thats nice and hey Jude is so good for staying optimisitc. I love that line "lets pick a sad song and make it better, remember to let her into your heart than you can start to make it better" every bad can be turned to the good way. ⭐
I'm curious could you tell me more of your other favourite songs?
I always like to talk about music 😀
O and do you like to sing too or play an instrument?
Yasssss Greatest Showman <3
