Favorite breakup songs?

Thought it was time for a change of pace y'all

What are all of your favorite breakup songs, you know, the ones you put on to torture yourself

For the start of my breakup I was listening to Moby - Hotel non stop, especially Where You End. After Moby was Dylan's Tomorrow is a Long Time (link is a Nickel Creek cover). I've since graduated to Lennon: Love, Oh My Love, Jealous Guy, Isolation.

John Lennon is truly an inspiration.

So what have you guys been putting on repeat?

I have been listening to "I Love you" by Lionel Ritchie, "Breathing" by Lifehouse...well pretty much a bunch of Lifehouse, and "Always" by Saliva, "Goodbye my Lover" by James Blunt. They are enough to bring me to tears. Why I purposely put myself through that over and over by listening to them I'll never know.

I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt
Breaking by Northmont

I think we listen to the songs because it relates to our situation and it reminds us of our ex's

Breathing is an amazing song!!!!

It stinks though because my x and I had a song that was by lifehouse "hanging by a moment" and our wedding song was going to be by them but now our relationship has ended and their song is the culmanation of that as well. WEIRD, huh? It's like they are our group.

I listen to "Puke" by Eminem. It's pretty inspiring.

Ani DiFranco's "Dilate" got me through my breakup with my first love, and that's saying a lot. "Untouchable Face" is the best breakup song ever!
