Hi, So I'm in the middle of convincing myself that I'm better off single, and while the romantic misadventures of my friends help a little bit, I need more. I found that some angry breakup songs really work well for me and really keep me sane. What are your favourites? Thank you!
[YOUTUBE]IpBjJ0dp2mc[/YOUTUBE] It's really a rather terrible song but it still captures everything I'd like to say to some people. Also the simplicity of the lyrics means that it can apply to just about any relationship breakup, not just a romantic one. Also: [YOUTUBE]8v_4O44sfjM[/YOUTUBE]
Part of Me by Katy Perry [YOUTUBE]uuwfgXD8qV8[/YOUTUBE] Gives You Hell by All American Rejects [YOUTUBE]A6APxbBYnoo[/YOUTUBE] (Hope I did this right, I've never linked to a YouTube video before)
^ "You Oughta Know" is probably the penultimate break-up song. Here are some of my favorites for the purpose: carrie underwood before he cheats lyrics - YouTube (country) Pythia - Just A Lie - YouTube (power metal) Within Temptation~ Angels ~lyrics - YouTube (symphonic metal) This one's not actually about a break-up, but it's easy to interpret it like it is: I Hate Everything About You - Three Days Grace (Lyrics) - YouTube (post-grunge) My happy ending (with lyrics) - Avril Lavigne - YouTube (pop rock) Edit: Ah, how could I forget Fuck You! Good call, MentalMe9917.
I don't know how to post links via my phone, but I'd say off the top of my head The Bleeding by Five Finger Death Punch, maybe Make Believe by Joan Jett, Ringfinger, That's What I Get, or Terrible Lie by Nine Inch Nails...not technically established breakup songs, but the lyrics work.

I'm not sure if this counts as "bitter", but I'd listen to "Here Comes Goodbye" by Rascal Flatts. That's a really good song
[YOUTUBE]UVOBh7ItPFI[/YOUTUBE] Not really angry in the traditional sense, but the jist is "I still miss you, but I'm over you. Even though you're desperate to come back, you can't. I'm the best you'll never have." I really love this song even though it kinda makes me sad...
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) - official video - YouTube Fuck you by Cee Lo Green is another one, but that's been posted a couple times.
Take a Bow by Rihanna Believe by Cher (everyone thinks it is for gays) I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor (same thing as above) We Are anever Ever Getting Back Together by Taylor Swift Better Than Revenge by Taylor Swift Apologize by Timbaland and OneRepublic Pretty much every Taylor Swift song
It's not really bitter, and it's a cover, but it's an awesome one. I will Survive - CAKE [YOUTUBE]596qaxm-u4o[/YOUTUBE] Oh, and Goodnight, Goodnight - Hot Hot Heat is awesome. [YOUTUBE]AH9uneXSdFM[/YOUTUBE]
LOL. I forgot to mention, this might not be everyone's cup of tea (Pete Doherty never is), but there's What Katie did Next by Babyshambles. If you don't know, this is the singer from The Libertines. [YOUTUBE]-cTlaIetTSA[/YOUTUBE] That man's lyrics are Leonard Cohen level poetry...
This song somehow works a little for me, if you're into provoking Christ and the Devil as well as branding your ex as a traitorous witch, forcing them to burn in the fires of hell and at the stake; this song is to go, comments are also quite whacked. [YOUTUBE]U3NoDEu7kpg[/YOUTUBE] This one is happy. [YOUTUBE]5QYxuGQMCuU[/YOUTUBE] This one is... okay, doesn't relate too well. [YOUTUBE]FlMBcTGJ4YM[/YOUTUBE] This one makes me laugh. [YOUTUBE]mOzdfaEPaR0[/YOUTUBE] My isn't too good, but I hope this helps.
