Best Break-up Song?

[ate_teenfourevr]

just lost lost a relationship with love of my life after four years.. shittiest day of my life... any help?

i have had: seventy times 7 on repeat for like an hour now

[IntoTheSun]

Oh man, that really sucks.

Uhh, as for songs though, your request pretty much makes up the most generic of the generic. Like, every song on the radio, pretty much...?

I mean, if you're looking for something more definitive I can help you with that, or else it's pretty much 90% of all pop songs haha.

[anthonydarko]

Alkaline Trio- Radio

[Antics]

Glassjaw.

"You fucking whore.
Shut up and swallow my pride for me, go.
Move closer or drive further.
So why don't you suck on the end of this dick that cums lead,
but first I'm coming after you all"

Debbie-downer break-up songs won't get you anywhere. Listen to something positive and keep your head up.

[DanTGD]

I listened to Hold Me Down and a few others I can't remember, after that I just stuck on my favourite albums, sung as loud as I could for a few hours and then went out with a friend, got drunk and had one of those big talks about life.

I suggested the singing and the big talk, it's always positive as long as you don't dwell on the ex for to long.

The Narrative - The Moment That It Stops

Period. No question.

With Take This To Your Grave, it's all going to be ok again.

[spazmonkey]

Debbie-downer break-up songs won't get you anywhere. Listen to something positive and keep your head up.

You gotta let yourself mourn, otherwise you can't get over it properly and you won't be giving future relationships the best chance you can. I'm not saying mope for a year about it, but let yourself be sad and let yourself get it all out before you try to move on.

Anberlin - Paperthin Hymn (to yell along with)
Framing Hanley - Alone in This Bed (to stare at the ceiling to)
Avril Lavigne - Together (to be stupidly mopey to)

I hope you get through stronger, man.

[Jaimehere]

Once again i say My Friends Over You by New Found Glory

[Ferzaer]

ehm sorry to hear that. that must sucks bad.

as for the break up song -

carpark north - leave my place
boys like girls - up against the wall

[pennie]

Listen to you friends - New Found Glory

[aerofan11]

Party in the USA?

[jesse-k]

I went through this same situation recently, and found some sort of help from relient k - "which to bury, us or the hatchet", followed by "let it all out". helps me, hoep it does the same for you

and I know you know
you touched my life
when you touched my heavy heart and made it light

[stereokiller]

Party in the USA?

=))

and OnT:

Broken Promise Ring - The Ataris
well, that was mine, at least.

or any of the following: Summerwind Was Always Our Song, Looking Back On Today, pretty much most ataris songs.

best. bittersweet. breakup. songs. ever.

I really wanna call you, but I know that it's not right. I probably shouldn't tell you but I dreamed of you last night. I guess I'm not prepared to say goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't be seeing you again until next time that he goes away. You told me that you loved me, I started tearing down those walls. I really started to trust you but you set me up to take the fall. I guess I'm not prepared to say goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't be seeing you again until next time that he goes away. I guess that I'm wrong for falling in love, but you're still the one that I'm dreaming of. I guess that it's you I want to hold onto, but you're holding onto someone else.

[Smeee]

Might be a bit too early but Naive Orleans - Anberlin is awesome:

" I've finally found that life goes on without you,
And my world still turns when you're not around."

[batmannj]

Relient K - Forget & Not Slow Down is one of the better break up albums I have heard, you could try that out.

And once you are doing better Justin Timberlake - "What Goes Around..." is a great song. Seriously.

[meroki22]

The second half of Say It Like You Mean It is basically one long bitter breakup song. But try and keep your head up no matter how bad it hurts.

i completelyyyy agree!

[narcoleptic953]

Pretty much all of Butch Walker's "Letters", but especially Best Thing You Never Had. Best break up song ever.

[MattADALIE]

I'm sorry to hear about this situation. Anyway, to really cheer up a bit, you definitely need to go 80's hair metal ballads with the best break-up song approach. Give Cinderella's "You Don't Know What You Got 'Til It's Gone" a spin or two. I hope it helps.

The Pros And Cons of Breathing will forever be my favourite FOB song.

[love_american_style]

go listen to the first Glassjaw album....you'll get over that bitch in no time.

[Cal Lewis]

I personally found "Mono" by Fightstar a therapeutic song after a breakup. I'm talking about the original version from They Liked You Better When You Were Dead. It's a very powerful song, it has regretful lyrics but also deals with accepting that something is over, which I think is good.

"I've started up the clocks
This time we left behind
And everything we've lost, disappears
(I'm calling, I'm calling out for answers on the long walk home)
I've started up the race
It's something I cant change
And now we're not the same"

Good luck, you will get over it. I know from experience things do get better :-)

[sweepthenation]

The Acacia Strain - Whoa! Shut It Down
Parkway Drive - Romance Is Dead

These two will definitely help

[Crowe41]

Alkaline Trio- Radio

Doesn't get much better than this.

[anamericangod]

Need to know the circumstances of the breakup to find the most applicable songs.

[andyball2311]

you me at six-you've made your bed, so sleep in it
the movielife-hand grenade
anything off count the stars' cd never be taken alive especially my best mistake (no more chances)

to be upset
tokyo rose-spectacle
dead poetic-dimmer light

[Yellowcard2006]

Fall Out Boy-"My Heart is the Worst Kind of Weapon"

Fall Out Boy- Take This To Your Grave (listen to all of it)

Yellowcard-" Firewater"

Yellowcard- "Three Flights Down"

Emery- ...In Shallow Seas We Sail


I can add a lot more if it involves cheating.

[WhoaWhoIsThis]

My favorite breakup song is "Looks Like I'm Back on Suicide Watch" by The Backup Plan. And it's hard rather than poppy, so it won't make you want to kill yourself. (A lot of music will make you just feel worse in the months ahead. Don't listen to that stuff.) You can listen to the song on the band's Myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/thebackupplan).

This is the song's chorus:
"Please burn every letter! Cuz it may take a year or two to forgive and forget and move on from you. Please burn every letter! Cuz I still turn to the west and hope to see your city in flames. I almost picked up the phone to let you know that I redefined 'alone.' I almost threw out every photograph." (Full lyrics here (http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=436545951&blogId=456994348).)

Scream along, pump your fist in the air, and take it day by day. You'll be okay. If you'd rather listen to Brand New, may I suggest "Logan To Government Center".

YES.

YES.

Quintessential breakup song, no?

[mayday_19]

i've always gone back to "three cheers for five years" by mayday parade.

my advice, listen to something that you can connect with and that really lets you vent what you're feeling.

[jeremyc]

It's science

Absolutely. I'd also make an argument for Skinny Love by Bon Iver.

Take This To Your Grave got a spin today, as well as YFW obv. and pretty much all the songs listed were amazing..

pedro the lion - bad diary days

Great one if it fits the circumstances!

Other than that I'd found that Ben Gibbard knows what he's talking about when it comes to this. After my first relationship hit the crapper I thought The Postal Service's Nothing Better was absolutely spot on (me being in denial and all). My next one went more in the direction of the Death Cab songs Tiny Vessels (if you've ever said it without meaning it, this song is just absolutely fantastic) and Someday You Will Be Loved (situation was opposite for me this time around).

[DylanCa]

All of John Mayer's Battle Studies.

[erwynl]

There are so many, find something you like and listen to that shit on repeat... or make a playlist, but it has to have rises and falls, otherwise you'll just get bored.

Sad:
Kill - Jimmy Eat World
"I loved you, and I should have said it, but tell me just what has it ever meant"
Another Heart Calls - The All-American Rejects
"As deep as I need you, you want to leave it all"

Angry:
Rootless Tree - Damien Rice
"Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, and all we've been through"
If Work Permits - The Format
"If she seems as lonely as me, let her sink, let her sink, let her..."
Polygraph, Right Now! - The Spill Canvas
"Fate is an elegant, cold-hearted whore"

Think you're over her and need a feel good?:
Down - SafteySuit
"You can't hold me down, because I finally understand that what you did is not so bad in fact it's better for me"
(Awesome song, trust me)

[rosielikesyou]

Might be a bit too early but Naive Orleans - Anberlin is awesome:

" I've finally found that life goes on without you,
And my world still turns when you're not around."


I was thinking of a few Anberlin songs that would be applicable, but this takes the cake. Love it.

[ate_teenfourevr]

thanks again everyone.. i found out from a friend (i do not have a facebook) cause he found out through facebook that she is "official with someone else on there".. after four years it took her all of 90 seconds to find someone else.. and no she wasn't anything but loyal and i know this cause this new kid just transferred into this school recently..

fucking sucks.. but thanks again guys!

[LastDeclaration]

most of Forget and Not Slow Down. "Part of It," especially.

[Zachals]

I just posted that before I saw this haha

That whole album is great for a breakup.

[cuzimlefthanded]

Well if you hate her, "Body Bag", by Hit The Lights

[erikbue]

Absolutely. I'd also make an argument for Skinny Love by Bon Iver.

this

[Corgkowznor]

Almost Anything by The Spill Canvas, It Ends Tonight by AAR, Promises by Adema, I like The Kill by 30STM, someone earlier said drop the girl by HTL, My Friends Over You is always a good one.

Darkhorse song that is not punk/pop-rock/etc: Champagne High by Sister Hazel--but only really applicable if your ex is getting married to someone else (random band I know, but I like it)

[dddaniel]

Absolutely. I'd also make an argument for Skinny Love by Bon Iver.
Skinny Love is great. The part where he says "then who the hell was I?" particularly.

[kboe@bex.net]

Jawbreaker-24 hour revenge therapy the whole album

[SofiaHxC]

I also recommend:

Drop The Girl- Hit The Lights
When We Stand On Each Other We Block Out the Sun- Fireworks
Typical- Cartel
Chippie- A Change of Pace

keep your chin up. Love is tough sometimes but if it doesn't kill ya it makes ya stronger.

[TheFractlEffect]

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but Beck's album Sea Change definitely helped me a lot through a break-up

[Zachariaahh]

bmth- sleep with one eye open

[dhilty]

True love will find you in the end-Wilco

[Metal Now]

Skinny Love is great. The part where he says "then who the hell was I?" particularly.

That's the exact line I was thinking of! That gets me every time.

EDIT: Found the line:

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?
Now I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Perfect.

[dhilty]

That's the exact line I was thinking of! That gets me every time.

the break up song: American Hi-Fi
hands down best break up song

[Rodeo]

Atmosphere - "Fuck you Lucy"



Leave me never would you, you show could I if [6x]

She said that she still wants a friendship
She cant live her life without me as a friend
I cant figure out why I'd give a damn to what she wants
I don't understand the now before the then

Most of this garbage I write
That these people seem to like
Is about you
And how I let you infect my life
And if they got to know you
I doubt that they would see it
They'd wonder what i showed you
How you could leave it
A friend in Chicago said that I should stay persistant
If I stay around, I'm bound to break resistance
Fuck you Lucy for defining my existence
Fuck you and your differences

Ever since I was a young lad
With a part time dad
It was hard to find happiness inside of what I had
I studied my mother
I digested her pain
And vowed no woman on my path would have to walk the same
Travel like sound across the fate ladder
I travel with spoon to mix this cake batter
And i travel with feels so i can deal with touch
Its like that
Thank you very much
Fuck you very much

Yes
Yes it is

And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

Yes
Yes it is

And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

Fuck the what happend
I got stuck
They can peel pieces of me off the grill of her truck
Used to walk with luck
Used to hold her hand
Fell behind and played the role of a slower man
I wanna stand on top of this mountain and yell
I wanna wake up and break up this lake of hell
I feel like a bitch for letting the sheet twist me up
The last star fighter is wounded time to give it up
On a pick it up mission
Kept it bitter
Getting in a million memories just to forget her
The difficulty in keeping emotions controlled
Cookies for the road
Took me by the soul
Hunger for the drama
Hunger for the nurture
Gonna take it further
The hurt feels like murder
Interperate
The eyes
Read the lines on her face
The sunshine is fake
How much time did i waste?
Fuck you Lucy for leaving me
Fuck you Lucy for not needin me
I wanna say fuck you
Because i still love you
No, I'm not OK
And I don't know what to do

Yes
Yes it is

And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

Yes
Yes it is
And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

Do I sound mad?
Well I guess I'm a little pissed
Every action has a point
Five points make a fist
You close em
You swing em
It hurt when it hits
And the truth can be a bitch
But if the boot fits
I got an idea
You should get a tattoo that says warning
That's all, just a warning
So the potential victim
Can take a left and safe breath
And avoid you
Sober and upset in the morning
I wanna scream Fuck you Lucy
But the problem is i love you Lucy
So instead
I'm gonna finish my drink,and have another
While you think about how you used to be my lover
(Fuck you)

Yes
Yes it is

And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

Yes
Yes it is

And everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love
Everyone in his life would mistake it as love

For real. EYEWTKAS is great for letting out some break up aggression. If that doesn't make you want to punch your ex in the face, nothing will -- especially considering it's an "another guy" scenario.

Walk Away - Ben Harper
You Told Me You Love Me and Goodbye Friendship Hello Heartache - Cinematic Sunrise well actually the whole cinsun ep does it for me.
The Haunting - Anberlin
Miserable At Best - Mayday Parade
Jasons Reeves - Patient For The Waiting - the whole ep, every song is a breakup song, Wishing Weed, thats the best one.
oh and pretty much every valencia song too.

[katyara]

That whole album is great for a breakup.
I feel like everything they do is great for a breakup. My friend got it down pat: Interventions & Lullabies is for when something's wrong and you know it; then Dog Problems is for when everything blows up in your face.

[katyara]

oh and lydia
lots of lydia.
this.

[wroteurname]

I listened to Hold Me Down and a few others I can't remember, after that I just stuck on my favourite albums, sung as loud as I could for a few hours and then went out with a friend, got drunk and had one of those big talks about life.

I suggested the singing and the big talk, it's always positive as long as you don't dwell on the ex for to long.

Dude, Hold Me Down can make me depressed even when I'm in the happiest of moods, odd choice.

[Antics]

For real. EYEWTKAS is great for letting out some break up aggression. If that doesn't make you want to punch your ex in the face, nothing will -- especially considering it's an "another guy" scenario.

that and a lot of songs off A Lesson In Romantics
or you could go with songs that WONT make you depressed

oily marks appear on walls
where pleasure moments hung before the takeover,
the sweeping insensitivity of this still life


I listened to it on repeat for a long time after my ex and I made it final.

Oh man, that really sucks.

Uhh, as for songs though, your request pretty much makes up the most generic of the generic. Like, every song on the radio, pretty much...?

I mean, if you're looking for something more definitive I can help you with that, or else it's pretty much 90% of all pop songs haha.

I'm quoting this, so you can remember the kind person you once were.

Anesthesia is an epic song.

I don't know if anyones said it, but Melrose Diner by the Wonder Years.

[RockTheWalls]

The Mountain Goats- Woke Up New

When you rec'd/wanted to hear this song for the feature we did I had just transferred over the files to my computer and made sure the sound was all good. It wasn't until a few weeks after when I had first listened to it when I broke up with my girlfriend of just over two years. Great song.

Another song that no one has mentioned happens to be by The Wonder Years. It has helped me out quite a bit. Break-ups suck. a lot. This song helps me remain positive and look forward.

The Wonder Years-I Was Scared and I'm Sorry

Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" was supposed to be a break-up song hence the "good riddance" in the title... but people have considered it to be (more generally) a "moving on" kind of song which is why it is used for high school graduations and such.

but i hope this helps somebody :)

music is always there to comfort you :)
