Whumpmas In July Day 11 - What songs/playlists are perfect for whumpy daydreaming?

@whumpmasinjuly-archive

I actually created a Spotify Playlist :) I've never shared one of my playlists before, so if anyone can listen, I hope you enjoy!

I have a song for the whumpy playlist - Time of Dying by Three Days Grace :) Thanks for making the playlist, btw!

Ohh, thank you for the suggestion! I shall definitely add this to the playlist. All the lyrics are incredibly whumpy, but here are my favourites:

‘I will not die, I’ll wait here for youI feel alive when you’re beside me’

‘On the ground I lay, motionless in painI can see my life flashing before my eyes.’

It makes me think of a whumpee lying in a hospital bed, or maybe in a dark alley somewhere, and they know they’re close to death, but they’re desperately trying to hold on until their loved one gets there, because they can’t go until they see them one last time…

Hey! I just wanted to say that I’m doing my homework and listening to your whump playlist. It’s the playlist that I listen to the most often now, thanks for putting it together!🥰

I’m so glad that you’re enjoying it!! I’m also a fan of listening to it while doing homework, but I’m really happy that others have also found it enjoyable :)

(Abuse TW.) You're pretty spot-on with the "hurt so much they think they deserve it" interpretation. It's a bit sadder than the joy of whump though. It's about the singer's experience with parental abuse. Even so, it's good writing inspiration. Thanks for being non-judgemental; always loved your blog :)

Oh, thanks for providing more context. That sounds pretty sad, but I agree that it makes good writing inspiration, especially for emotional whump I guess?

Characters believing that they deserve to be hurt is honestly heartbreaking, but all too relatable…

Anyway, thanks again for sharing, and feel free to send any more suggestions my way, or just add them to the playlist, anyone can edit it :)

Hello! I feel like a severely underrated whump song that I absolutely love is Lonely Hours by Mallory Knox

Oh, you’re right, thanks for the suggestion! I’ve added it to my whump ™ playlist :)

The lyrics are incredibly whumpy:

‘I need your help to stand again,I’m broken on the floorMy hands are tied, my knees are weak from crawling in the dirt’

'They’ll tie us down & lift us up for everyone to seeRevealing all our darkest truths we’ve tried so hard to keep’

Makes me think of a whumpee who’s hiding a dark past and then somehow, it gets revealed and they have to deal with the aftermath. But their loved ones support them and try to make sure that they’re okay.

But yeah, anyone can add stuff to that playlist so go ahead and add whatever you feel like!

Whumpy songs/ music videos: Elastic Heart by Sia, Just for Tonight by Sam Tsui, hostage by Billie Eilish, New Girl by FINNEAS, Alien by Sabrina Carpenter. Any other suggestions?

Oh, thank you very much for the suggestions! I have added them to the playlist. I don’t think I’ve heard any of those before, except for Elastic Heart, and it’s always fun to discover new music :)
