Best Breakup CD or Album Ever
Edited on Sat Jan-14-06 09:55 AM by RetroLounge
If your relationship is ending, and you want to put on an ENTIRE Album (CD to you youngins) to listen to, what is your pick?

Mine: Gentleman, by the Afghan Whigs...



Yours?

1. "Pirates"
by Rickie Lee Jones.

The first two tracks alone are worth the price.

3. Led Zeppelin I
That has to be an all time classic great break-up album. I listened to it for every break up for years.

13. Carole King's "Tapestry" is her breakup album
with the ultimate breakup song "Its Too Late". She's even got the depressed "I just broke up" look.

17. Liz Phair, "Exile in Guyville"
Because it makes me dance around, it makes me feel naughty, it makes me feel happy, and it cheers me up.

And it's about boys, for the most part.

18. Hello I must be going, by Phil Collins
if not the the best, then at least the most redundant breakup album, featuring the songs "I don't care anymore" and "It don't matter to me".

19. Ani DiFranco's "Living in Clip." Because of "Firedoor" (live version).
Edited on Sat Jan-14-06 06:45 PM by BlueIris
In fact, because one of my ex's FUCKING STOLE THAT FROM ME SEVERAL YEARS AGO AS WE WERE BREAKING UP, I actually need to go replace it. In preparation for the off chance I ever find civilized male companionship on this planet again.
