    Beat you to the punch. But I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought of Al!

    Yes you did, I finally saw that earlier tonight but could not edit it. Oh well.
    That song seemed to fit perfectly here.
    Hopefully this one is not a double post as well, not checking the first two pages to make sure:

    Except for maybe Alanis Morissette? I'm surprised she's not on here.

    After a break up I like a mix of angry and calm. Since angry's been well covered, i'll add this one. For when you just want to cry.



    Edit - I realise this song can be taken as being about someone who has passed away, but i've always interpreted it as losing a love in any way, including a breakup.

    I prefer it when the anger is dark and simmering. That Alanis Morissette song never did much for me.

    GeneticShift Show me your everything is okay face.

    Some more popped into my head today.
    These were on repeat after a few different breakups.
    Still listen to them pretty frequently though, as they are great songs.

    It's been a while since I've had a break up but I'm a sucker for break up songs. They can be melancholic, or angry, or anything. There's just something so satisfying about them.

    A couple of ideas of the top of my head:


    Madrugada - Only When You're Gone

    (actually that band did a pretty good line in break-up songs: Majesty and Whatever Happened To You do the trick also)


    Moonface w/ Siinai - Headed For The Door

    (and if that hits the spot then that whole album is good for break-up tunes, particularly Faraway Lightning and Quickfire, I Tried)

    Okay, I can't post links yet, but here's my list:

    RHCP - I Could've Lied
    Temptations - I Wish It Would Rain
    Supergrass - Late In The Day
    Sade - Stronger Than Pride
