Sad Scores & Soundtracks

Do you listen to music when you're down? Music plays a huge part in our lives whether we're happy or sad, but there's something about listening to beautifully melancholy music that almost has healing powers when you're sad, doesn't it?

For us, we love listening to scores and soundtracks that, strangely enough, actually help us through a tough time. Thomas lost a friend a few weeks ago and has been listening to a couple of different scores lately. For us, the more dramatic the music is, the better, with beautiful and delicate strings and pianos and cellos all coming together to form a haunting, melodic sound that might just help ease whatever pain we're feeling.

We've gathered a list of a few of our favorite film scores below:

A Single Man

The Hours

A Cure For Wellness

Intersteller

Sleepy Hollow

Notes on a Scandal

Gladiator

Pirates of the Carribean

Harry Potter

The Chronicles of Narnia

Batman Begins

Chocolat

Forrest Gump

Casper

The Polar Express

Titanic (of course)

It sounds weird, we know, but you should try it sometime. And if scores from films aren't your thing, we would love to know what you listen to when you're feeling down. Music is so therapeutic, don't you think?
