“Punk Rock Girl” by the Dead Milkmen is the greatest love song ever. Greatest ‘i-got-dumped’ song is Nirvana’s “Lounge Act.” Listen closely and you can hear it.

Can’t believe no one mentioned I want you by Elvis Costello. By far the best song about having been dumped

Staind’s “It’s Been Awhile” is full of regret and lost. It should have been on the list.

My Morning Jacket- Hopefully. Its just a beautiful love song

it’s elliotT smith. not elliot smith.

goddamnit.

Best Breakup Song

“This is My Version”- zerobridge

Best Love Song

“Lets Stay Together”- Al Green

Best “WTF Happened” song?

“Yesterday”- The Beatles

how Frank Zappa’s classic, Broken Hearts are For Assholes ?

you missed a dylan classic “don’t think twice its alright” is perfect for any break up mix

BREAKING UP MIXTAPE
the dandy warhols - we used to be friends

I believe Love Will Tear Us Apart and I Heard It Through the Grapevine are a couple of the best breakup songs ever.

Great Breakup songs-
All The Rage- Elvis Costello
Not The Girl You Think You Are- Crowded House
How Long?- Ace
Time To Leave- 15 Keys

Great Love Songs
Lucky-15 Keys
Daydream Singalong- 15 Keys
You Stole My Bell- Elvis Costello
Something- The Beatles

So many more breakup and love songs but those are some of the best!

I think there’s only one song worthy of being a song to tell someone else that you love them.

unchained melody - righteous brothers. try not to think of ghost while you hear it and it works.

“This Time”-Smashing Pumpkins, touching, rousing break-up song, like an album in 5 minutes.

i’m not the hugest fan, but i can’t believe rolling stone left off “it ain’t me” by bob dylan for when you’re breaking up with someone.

Lover, You Should Have Come Over

Jeff Buckley.

Reminds me of when you’re missing someone so much…

Blind Love and Downtown Train by Tom Waits. No sap from that tree.

What do you guys think of this?
It’s more like or a rollercoaster love affair ending poorly.

Ummm,
the list would’ve been better if the readers made it. There’s like 1000 songs that have been left out.
None of the ones I had in mind are even up there!

Dry Your Eyes by The Streets is one of my favorite breakup songs

That was surprisingly great well done Rolling Stone.

wild guess “I’m Trying to Break Your Heart” by Wilco was just too god damn obvious for the second category

The Tragically Hip rule.

Congrats RS for throwing bobcaygeon in there what a great tune

dude…how could rollingstone leave out Slow Dancing In A Burning Room by John Mayer for breaking up songs? insane..

Bob Dylan - It Ain’t Me Babe

or as it would be called today

Fuck off bitch

gladys knight and the pips have the best love song ever with “you’re the best thing that ever happened to me”

Someone you’re breaking up with mixtape needs “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right” by Mr. Zimmerman. It’s the greatest break-up song of all time.

rolling stone. please start listening to music.

whole lotta love by led zeppelin & hey joe by jimi hendrix

last goodbye by jeff buckley HAS to make one of those breakup lists

mistral gagnant by renaud when youre in the bed
