To me, this is the greatest breakup song.
Honorable mentions:
When You Were Mine - Prince (not to snub Nothing Compares which I also love)
I Get Along Without You Very Well - Chet Baker
I haven't rocked this since highschool and am revisiting it now. It hits harder after being in love a couple times. It’s sentimental and corny but also vulgar and cruel. It’s much sadder than I remembered. I used to think “Why didnt you just write 33 really good songs” but now I understand that there will never be enough love songs. ‘I Don't Wanna Get Over You” is a beautiful song about agonizing yourself. ‘Let's Pretend We’re Bunny Rabbits” is a wonderful tune about having a relentless erection.
My close friend Ben came down to visit me in Philly back in December and for those three days, we kept talking about this song and it just perfectly captured what we were both going through and the in between of Philadelphia weather
