These are the songs that when they play on my iPod make me realize I’m alone…they then make me wonder why I have them on my running mix at the gym.
I placed rules on myself when trying to pick the best ten.
#1) Nothing “classic.” As much as I love Sinatra and Buble, I couldn’t bring myself to have any romantic attachment to a style of music that reminds me of my father.
#2) It can’t be a “Wedding Song” one that make all my engaged friends go, “Oh maybe I’ll have my first dance to this.” NO! Those songs did not make my list.
#3) Nothing I loved during high school could make the list (Nsync and John Mayer I’m looking at you).
#4) They had to make me think about someone else. The trend of the list indicates that pianos make me think about former loves.
#5) I could only pick 10. So here they are, the Top Ten Songs that Make You Realize You’re Alone.
Well those are the rules so download these songs to your iPod, build a fire, curl up under a blanket, grab some Ben and Jerry’s and press play.
Top Ten Songs That Make You Realize You’re Alone
- Gardenia, Mandy Moore
Best Lyric: Doing all the Things I’ve neglected, Traded them all to be in your arms.
- Songbird, Eva Cassidy
Best Lyric: Cause I feel that when I’m with you, It’s alright, I know it’s right.
- 9 Crimes, Damien Rice
Best Lyric: Its the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you.
- A Simple Twist of Fate, The Format cover of Bob Dylan
Best Lryic: Maybe she’ll pick him out again, how long must he wait, once more for a simple twist of fate.
- Wasteland, Matt White
Best Lyric: All Alone, where are you, are we over?
- Fear You Wont Fall, Josh Radin
Best Lryic: I know it’s easy to say, but it’s harder to feel this way.
- Miss Me, Joe Purdy
Best Lyric: I guess something don’t work out like they should.
- By Your Side, Sade
Best Lyric: Oh when you’re cold, I’ll be there to hold you tight

Best Lyric: You’re staying out till late ’cause it was what your husband hated
- Feels Like Home, Chantal Kreviazuk
Best Lyric: Well if you knew how much this moment means to me and how long I’ve waited for your touch.
Nothing like a blog with two numbered lists. Awesome.
