20 Greatest Empowering Break-Up Songs

I don’t know any magic so I can’t cure you of your heart ache. What I can do, however, is provide you some tracks to help you on your road to romantic recovery, or at least get through the Valentine’s Day hump. These are not your mama’s “I’m so sad” break up songs. These are the songs you feel better after listening to them, not worse.

So buckle up, kids, and here we go!

Yes!
ellie_andrews 23rd-Feb-2013 06:51 am (UTC)
yessss music post.

This song is more of a "oh God girl you're in your late 20s what are you doing with your life" thing to me but it could also be used as a break up song. Versatile!

mistyraven 23rd-Feb-2013 07:13 am (UTC)
I love this band
ellie_andrews 23rd-Feb-2013 07:15 am (UTC)
yeah ya do

misscrystal 23rd-Feb-2013 08:34 am (UTC)
The singer's voice is so amazing it makes me wish I actually liked this band's music.
one_hoopy_frood 23rd-Feb-2013 06:51 am (UTC)
This seems like as appropriate of a post as any to say that I can't stop listening to I Knew You Were Trouble and I hate myself for it. Literally listen to it on a loop. Help me.
zoaster_toaster 23rd-Feb-2013 06:54 am (UTC)
I'm in the same boat, and I also hate Taylor Swift. I rationalize my like of the song with that it isn't so much a Taylor Swift song as it is a generic pop tune.
one_hoopy_frood 23rd-Feb-2013 06:56 am (UTC)
The first time I heard it I was like "Wait didn't she sort of vaguely sound country before?" but god damn it is so catchy.
actxappalledx 23rd-Feb-2013 07:05 am (UTC)
Haha, I love it, too. Mostly bc I feel like that's my exact situation with my ex, especially the line "and when I fell hard, you took a step back without me"
schexyschteve 23rd-Feb-2013 07:13 am (UTC)
I LOVE that song. It's ridiculously catchy
thickfreakness 23rd-Feb-2013 08:00 am (UTC)
You are not alone.
misscrystal 23rd-Feb-2013 08:42 am (UTC)
Ewwww.
I do not listen to the radio/mainstream pop, but I only know this song because I heard it no less than three times while shopping at Old Navy one afternoon. Everything about the song was so terrible that I had to Shazam it and find out who sang this awful song that kept putting my teeth on edge.
Zero surprise when I saw it was Tayor Swift.

sarahfer 23rd-Feb-2013 08:51 am (UTC)
LOL I usually hate TS, but this song infiltrated my brain and I listened to it on loop to and from work for a week last month.
miakun 23rd-Feb-2013 03:11 pm (UTC)
It's such a god damn catchy song though. I have like 80 plays at least on my itunes and that's not counting the times I've listened to it on my ipod.
deltabean 23rd-Feb-2013 03:19 pm (UTC)

"You Oughta Know" supposedly being about Dave Coulier never ceases to amuse me.
mistyraven 23rd-Feb-2013 07:25 am (UTC)
The fact that her twin brother looks vaguely like Dave Coulier never ceases to disturb me

Oh, and hands down my favorite Beyonce song. Will always be bitter that she did not do a video for this.
