(Finished June 14th, 2024) Part 1 of The Best Songs About Breaking Up/ Catharsis Songs

Hello,

Happy Flag Day!!

I have a friend who’s going through trauma over a relationship and she asked me help her to make a playlist. Some of these are angry or sad break up songs and some are just cathartic. This is it, the first song that came to mind was:

1) Daughtry “Over You”:

“A humiliating kick in the crotch”. 2) The Police “Synchronicity 2”:

3) Taylor Swift “We Are Never Getting Back Together”:

4) Linda Ronstadt “You’re No Good”:

5) The All-American Rejects “Gives You Hell”:

6) Carole King “It’s Too Late”:

7) The Airborne Toxic Event “Sometime Around Midnight”:

8) Paramore “CrushCrushCrush”:

9) Kelly Clarkson “Since U Been Gone”:

10) Natalie Imbruglia “Torn”:

11) Theory of a Deadman “Hallelujah”:

12) NSYNC “Bye Bye Bye”:

13) Adele “Rolling In The Deep”:

14) Alanis Morissette “You Oughta Know”:

15) Judas Priest “You’ve Got Another Thing Coming”:

16) Lauryn Hill “Ex-Factor”:
