What album is your saving grace?

Mine is How to Save a Life by The Fray

I had the whole album on my Ipod and listened to it every night in 2006. My mom had breast cancer and had to go through radiation. I also was dealing with my sexuality and very confused. This album made me cry in my bed as well as drive me to play my piano more. In the end, my mom had been cancer free since then and I realized I'm of the homosexual variety and that isn't going away.

This album is my saving grace. What is yours?

Either Reckless & Relentless or From Death to Destiny by Asking Alexandria.

Pretty much the 3 og John Mayer albums (Continuum, Room for Squares, and Heavier Things) have been some of my favorite feel good music during rough days. Other memorable albums were Chutes Too Narrow by the Shins and Plans by Death Cab for Cutie, which I'm pretty sure I played both ad nauseam for a month straight a couple years ago.

So I used to be a super angsty teen goth with lots of feelings, and I would sit in my room either loudly listening to Fallen by Evanesence, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge by My Chemical Romance, or The Chronicles of Life and Death by Good Charlotte. I would also like scream to the songs... it was a good time to be an emo kid.

Born This Way by Lady Gaga helped me to come to terms with my sexuality. I could name any Bowie album and they would all have helped me in some way, so I'm not gonna list any of them, but Gaga really helped me out when I was younger and confused about myself, so I feel like I should acknowledge her.

All the Lovely Losers by Jason Gray. There was never really a specific time when I needed it, but it just makes me feel better whenever I'm down.

[lostineverfreeforest]

Any of Streetlight Manifesto's albums, though Everything Goes Numb & Somewhere in the Between would be my go to.

[Cheren]

Walking With Strangers by The Birthday Massacre or anything Purity Ring has made.

200 KMH In The Wrong Lane by t.A.T.u.

Oops!...I Did It Again by GODney Spears

Both those albums have a special place in my life.

I don't listen to a lot of music, but Sarah Brightman's La Luna album always makes everything better. It was the first album I bought with my own money when I was 13 and I was lucky enough to see her tour a few years ago.

 

[HopeForHyrule]

August and Everything After by Counting Crows is easily my favorite album of all time. It's so hard for me to love an album from start to finish, but this one manages the impossible.

Room On Fire is straight heat as you could imagine

 

[SoulEaterEvans]

Brand New Eyes by Paramore n.n

Right now it is definitely All We Know Is Falling by Paramore! It's crazy how much I relate to it, but so many things have gone on in my life recently and it just fits so perfectly! Their self-titled album is also really doing it for me too, everything is just too relatable for an ex-emo kid like me In general though, like over-all, the best album for me of all time is definitely The Black Parade by My Chemical Romance. Dang. It just does something for me, some of the songs are so beautiful you know? I'll always go back to it, in the end; no matter how long I am away from it.

Idk. Maybe Suicide Season by Bring Me the Horizon? It's a tough call for me, because I listen to a good bit of music, and I have so many favorite artists. However, that album helped me through that disgusting, edgy, teenager phase. I don't think my case was all that bad, but I remember being a much angrier person all the time. Just that kid who was mad at the world, lol. I'm still an angry person at times now, but it's not as frequent.
