Songs do a great job of marking all the chapters of a relationship - titillation, infatuation, obsession ... followed by the comforting warmth of deep and abiding love ... (sometimes) followed by hurt, misunderstanding and betrayal ... followed by anger, separation and acceptance.
Yet once the breakup is over and done, we sometimes get stuck, unable to move forward or go back, awash in residual negative feelings that swallow us like quicksand.
You know as well as anyone you're only hurting yourself when you get like this, but your "How We Heard It" team is here to help.
This week's episode is all about letting the old you go and embracing your future with the help of artists who tap into humor and resilience - and maybe throw one last jab at that ex - as they move on to rejoin the world around them.
So quit crying in your beer, get a haircut and buy a new shirt. You've got a life to live!
