This list is UTTERLY USELSSS without mentioning THE BREAKUP SONG from the Greg Kihn Band!

That’s the first song I thought of when I read the thread title. Also Sinead’s “Nothing compares 2U” may have received a lot of air play, but it’s nowhere near as powerful or moving as her song, “Last Day Of Our Acquaintance.”
Thank you, I was about to post the same. How can you have a post about breakup songs without this absolute classic?!?
But he goes on to a happy ending?
