Break-up tunes

post #1 of 24
Thread Starter 

All right guys, I am having a tough time due to a breakup.  Pretty tough indeed.  In fact, I have been so distraught that I have not been able to even to litsen to music yet, and it has been days.  What are the best, or your 'favorite' songs that might have consoled you when you've been heartbroken?  Any suggestions?

I found consolation in other tunes but I remember that these tunes played a part after the break-ups. I still bust a sweat hearing that Ms. Dynamite bit. Keep your head up OP :)

This one may not console you, but it'll distract you.  And the angry guitar at the end may help purge you.
