My mate's so sad he made his own.... hadn't even broken up with anyone, was just unrequited love

Only worrying thing is the free bottle of sleeping pills you get with the limited edition version.

"Julie's been working for the Drug squad"

That tune got me through my break up

What balls.

How can you have a break up album and NOT have G n' R "November Rain" on it.

Nonsense.

PaulO80 · « **Reply #6 on:** September 13, 2005, 04:16:20 pm »

No 'Ever Fallen in Love (with someone you shouldn't have)'?

Bollocks.

REDGIRL2 · « **Reply #7 on:** September 13, 2005, 04:46:14 pm »

Yeah all you need for a break up is your friends around yeah and no stuipd music album!

ElleFCee · « **Reply #8 on:** September 13, 2005, 04:49:22 pm »

My favourite break up song is No Distance Left To Run by Blur

Bullan · « **Reply #9 on:** September 13, 2005, 04:49:29 pm »

tsk tsk .. that cd is used for population control in Essex .. it's given to the 'Chelsea' who in turn stop breeding and kill themselves.

Never thought it'd make it into the mainstream.

Edit: were it says Chelsea its supposed to say Chelsea.s

Edit Again: it would appear that any variation of the word for burberry and fake gold wearing essex lowlives gets changed into Chelsea ..

how apt ..

i'd have thought a break up cd would have all cheerful songs on it. Thats depressing as hell!

Surprised Angels isnt on there, that would be pretty sad if you'd just split up.

The Jackal · « **Reply #12 on:** September 13, 2005, 05:14:34 pm »

I would have thought 'I will Survive' would be on there - isn't it the classic break up song??

Dar · « **Reply #13 on:** September 13, 2005, 05:14:43 pm »

It only needs 'Nik Kershaw - Wouldn't it be good' on it which is a classic suicide tune. bollox

The Jackal · « **Reply #14 on:** September 13, 2005, 05:16:39 pm »

How about The Beatles - 'In My Life'

(Just watching 'One Night in May' - again!!)

Red Squiggle · « **Reply #15 on:** September 13, 2005, 05:53:57 pm »

would have included my favourite "she broke my heart-so i broke her jaw"- sung by myself

Ferg · « **Reply #18 on:** September 13, 2005, 07:01:36 pm »

'She fucking hates me' by puddle of mud

Redlady · « **Reply #19 on:** September 13, 2005, 07:12:48 pm »

What a jolly sounding album

Suppose we can be thankful it wasn't even more current and contain 'Goodbye my lover' by James Blunt or 'The One I love' by David Gray.

If they did bring a ultimate suicide album out, they could just litter it with Coldplay tracks. Everytime they are on top of the pops the suicide rate goes up thurty tree percent!

Monty. · « **Reply #24 on:** September 14, 2005, 01:32:51 pm »

Lucky Man by The Verve?

Since I Left You by The Avalanches?

Life Becoming A Landslide by The Manic Street Preachers? Or You Stole The Sun From My Heart? Ready For Drowning? Nobody Loved You? Good God, they ARE miserable fuckers!

Infidelity (Only You) By Skunk Anansie?

Mudface_ · « **Reply #25 on:** September 14, 2005, 01:40:10 pm »

Too Drunk to Fuck by The Dead Kennedys

Where is 'Nothing Lasts Forever' by Echo and the Bunnymen?

Now theres a good call.

I want it now
I want it now
Not the promises of what tomorrow brings
I need to live in dreams today
I'm tired of the song that sorrow sings

And I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

I'd walk to you through rings of fire
And never let you know the way I feel
Under skin is where I hide
The love that always gets me on my knees

And I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Nothing ever lasts forever

I want it now
I want it now
Don't tell me that my ship is coming in
Nothing comes to those who wait
Time's running out the door you're running in

So, I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Nothing ever lasts forever

All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/feb/14/best-breakup-songs-valentines-day

I'd add Buckley's 'Lover, You Should've Come Over' or even 'Last Goodbye' to my list.

Scottymuser · « **Reply #35 on:** February 14, 2024, 12:00:08 pm »

Where is You Oughta Know by Alanis Morisette - so much pure anger directed at the ex, its a perfect song for me. Cracking song.

tubby · « **Reply #36 on:** February 14, 2024, 12:07:06 pm »

Always nice to see Sleater-Kinney getting a mention somewhere. The album that song is off is brilliant.

About Paul's breakup with Jane Asher. 2 minutes long and more depth and emotion than in a million novels.

And some people don't think Macca's a genius.

I wouldn't nominate it for an award or anything but this is a personal favourite:

Now maybe we can be friends, yeah, now that you're leaving
You can be nice to me, maybe I'm dreaming
I am a lot better now than just okay
Maybe I am just waking up in my own way

Also, obligatory in any of these lists:
