  • Robyn is amazing for this! Makes you wonder what kinda relationships she's had though Little Jackie - The World Should Revolve Around Me is another personal favorite!
  • Evanescence are great for that. Kelly Clarkson - all her songs seem to be about some d!ck in her life at the time =p. Beyonce is great too! Avril Lavigne and Katy Perry have some good break up songs here and there.

    I actually have a playlist of break up songs haha.
  • Gloria Gaynor - I will survive.. love it a realy F**K you song lol with a beat..
    hugs it will take time but time is a great healer..

    EDIT:
    also "i am the Resurrection" the stone roses.. a great belter
    and "Forget you" Ceelo Green
    "you can go your own way " Fleetwood mac
  • "Stronger" - Kelly Clarkson
    "A Little Bit Stronger" - Sara Evans
    "King of Anything" - Sara Bareilles
    "F**k you" - Cee Lo Green (or the more PC "Forget you" but I'm bad and the f word makes my angry side feel better)

    The first three really made me feel better and remember how strong I am, and how good my life is with or without him.
  • THANK YOU GUYS!!
    I love this. It helps me soooo soo much..
  • Goodbye by Alicia Keys "But how do I let go when Ive loved him for so long and ive given him all that I could?..How do you find the words to say Goodbye? when your heart dont have the heart to say Goodbye?" Im happily married and this song still makes my eyes water :-(
    End of the Road by Boyz 2 Men
    Doin Just Fine by Boyz 2 Men (that one is about being OK after the break up, really empowering)
    I LOVE Red High Heels by Kelly Clarkson (at least i think it was kelly clarkson)
    Tomorrow by Brandy

    I hope these help and I hope you feel better! Everyday that passes, you get stronger...

  • I just went through a breakup myself, and "Ring the alarm" by Beyonce was my jam the whole time, it really helped me get out the anger/frustration I had, especially during exercise! I second Robyn too, she has some good songs. picture your ex's face whenever you're having a tough time getting through that last mile or those last few reps.....never fails
