I was reading the other thread about affair anthems and got to thinking about what songs I associate with my experience. What comes to mine are these:
"Blue" by LeAnn Rimes: my "OMG, somebody gets how I am feeling!" song and
"One Way Ticket" also by LeAnn Rimes: after reading about the 180 I realize this is my 180 theme song.
So, in the spirit of doing a 180 on the affair anthems thread, what is your 180 theme song?

I haven't heard Blue in years. It's an emotional one.
One song that spoke to me post-infedelity was Tina Turner I Don't Wanna Fight.
I hear a whisper in the air
It simply doesn't bother me
Oh, can't you see that I don't care
Or are you you looking right through me
It seems to me that lately (seems to me that lately)
You look at me the wrong way and I start to cry
Could it be that maybe (could it be that maybe)
This crazy situation is the reason why
We ended up reconciling but this somg helped me during the do I stay or do I go.

Miss Me More - Kelsea Ballerini
Leann Rimes is a big ol’ AP, fwiw.

Absolutely nothing better for the 180 than "I love myself today" by Bif Naked 
Me: BH - Happily remarried.
Hope is never lost. It exists within you - it is real. It is not a force in and of itself - it is something that you create with every thought, action, and choice you make. It is a gift that you create for yourself.

I just mentioned this song in the affair anthems thread, but I suppose it works better here.
Sorry by Beyonce is absolutely a song about reclaiming your strength/power and focusing on yourself after betrayal - which for me was absolutely what the 180 was about (I was reconciling but I also knew that there was a very real chance that R would not be possible).
I cannot tell you the number of times I sang these lyrics:
Middle fingers up, put them hands high
Wave it in his face, tell him, boy, bye
Me: BS. Him: WS.
D-Day: Feb 2017 (8 m PA with married COW).
Happily reconciled.

Video is pretty good.
You can’t lose what you never had, you can’t keep what’s not yours, and you can’t hold on to something that does not want to stay.
