Whether you’re feeling down after a break up or ready to scream from the rooftops about a new relationship, there’s nothing like using a fabulous song as your soundtrack. Everyone has their go-to break up songs and romance songs, and while the more lovey-dovey tracks may be playing on repeat today, your friends over at Facebook claim that romantics prefer to pump up the music once relationships are finito. With the help of music-streaming site Spotify, Facebook made some interesting discoveries about the top tunes people listen the day they make their relationships and breakups “Facebook official”: Jason Derulo is popular with lovebirds, Drake is a favorite for break ups, and Bruno Mars appeals to both the smitten and bitter ones. Below are the two lists that represent the most listened to songs by people who have broke up or entered a new relationship on Facebook (biggest surprise? “Someone Like You” isn’t on the break ups list. Um, what?). So whether you’re heading out tonight with a new love or you just got dumped and want to hole up with a pint of Ben & Jerry’s, at least you’ll have some mood music!
