Top 10 Breakup Songs to Help You Get Over It

I came across another “old” email from the people at Kineda, pointing me to their somewhat useful post, Top 10 Breakup Songs to Get Over Your Ex-Boyfriend. It’s quite an entertaining read, actually. They’ve listed the following songs that they’ve picked to be part of this fun list.

1. I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor
2. Since U Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson
3. Irreplaceable by Beyonce
4. Survivor by Destiny’s Child
5. Over It by Katharine McPhee
6. Not Goin’ Cry by Mary J. Blige
7. Ain’t It Funny by Jennifer Lopez
8. Get Out (Leave) by JoJo
9. Don’t Bother by Shakira
10. My Happy Ending by Avril Lavigne

You can even have a listen to a portion of the song and they’ve even highlighted favourite verses from the songs. I noticed that it’s somewhat for the “loser” boyfriend so most the songs are “empowering” of sorts. I have nothing against it but I guess I’m more mellow and sappy when I’m heartbroken. BUT I’m a rock chick so what can you expect? Hehehe.

This inspired me to come up with a list of my own. I’m listing them down in random.

1. The Sound of White by Missy Higgins
2. One Fine Day by Natalie Merchant
3. Cannonball by Damien Rice
4. Space Between by Dave Matthews Band
5. White Flag by Dido
6. Goodbye My Lover by James Blunt
7. Last Goodbye by Jeff Buckley
8. Mr. Brightside by The Killers
9. If You’re Gone by Matchbox20
10. Ten Days by Missy Higgins

I’m thinking this ought to be a fun way to make into a blog tag, so, I’m asking the following musically-inclined people to post their own list of Top 10 Breakup Songs:
Lauren
Joey
Kristine
Markku
Marcvill (I know you’re married but I’m sure you can come up with list for us singles. Hehe.)
LJ
Rick
Matt
Ade
Jonic

Can’t wait to see your list! And if you want to make a list of your own, let me know. You can leave a link here so the rest of the Dating Dames readers can check yours out, too!

Have fun!
