Your Breakup Song Soundtrack

by Sarah Horth on October 23, 2009

Have a soundtrack for your breakup and include your favorite tearjerkers.  For the list below I asked my girlfriends and interviewees for some of the best breakup songs and have included them to start you off with your DJ Downer playlist.

Take it with you walking or running or have it playing when you want to mope around the house and want to feel (or have a really good boohoo).  Music is a way to live your tragedy without having to think about it too much – get moving to some of these sad songs and songs about breaking up.
