What are your top five break-up songs?
Submitted by gt.

I've really only ever needed two:

1.) "Slut" by GBH

2.) "Dazed and Confused," by Led Zeppelin

A semi-related anecdote:

In my 20s, I acquired a nasty habit of dating women who weren't all that bright. During that time, and into my 30s, right up until I married, I owned a regretful characterisitic where I blatantly ignored any and all signs that a relationship was in trouble, wasn't working out or otherwise steadfastly refusing to read the writing that was clearly on the wall. The dense girlfriend thing was pretty consistent through my bachelorhood, save for the one or two who actually had their shit together.

No, this story is borne in my late-20s, with a lovely young lady who, during the course of the relationship, became a born-again Christian. I tried. I really tried to believe it was a passing phase, as it is with most people, but that assessment was a falsehood. During a drive somewhere, the song "Possum Kingdom" by The Toadies was on the local college rock radio station. Before turning up the volume, she said to me, "I really, really like this song." My hunch was because the singer kept saying "Jesus" at the end of the song, as in "So help me Jesus." I waited for the song to end before I asked her, "Do you know what that song is about?"

"No," she said.

"It's about a guy who murders his girlfriend."

Silence.

Here is my girlfriend of that time admitting to me that she likes a song where a man kills his girfriend. I was astounded that she couldn't pick grasp what was wrong with that concept. That's when I knew things would never elevate any higher than that conversation.
