Ok, forgetting sexually explicit letters of all kinds and supposed incursions on free speech, what is the best break up song that you know of ? You know, there you are, there he/she is (tick appropriate box), you are lost for words but have a cd player/MP3 player/Stereo etc. What song do you play to let him/her get the idea. Starter for ten: 'Anna' by The Beatles Rock on

Just wait till you guys hear Dry Your Eyes on the new Streets album... an absolute joy and the best and most moving break up song I've ever heard.

i think "prayer to god" by shellac defo deserves a mention here. unlikely source for breakup songs, but then it's an unlikely break up song, of a kind you dont hear often enough- a nasty, nasty break up. the whole lyric is a prayer to god asking him to speed the one who broke your heart(and the one they broke it with) toward a horrible, horrible death. it starts with: "To the one true god above...", and ends with "Amen". "her,she can go quietly by desease or a blow/to the base of her neck where her necklaces close/where her garments come together/where i used to lay my face/that's where you should kill her/in that particular place/as for him,just f**king kill him/i dont care if it hurts..." etc....very cheery. great song, though.

That new one by "F*ck you, I don't want you back" by what's his face makes a good point, but "Nothing compares to you" is good if you still like her

Jeff Buckley - Lover You Should Have Come Over, much closer to the bone than Last Goodbye. "Its never over, She's the tear hangs inside my soul forever."

Blame it on the Sun - Stevie Wonder. or maybe Kyle Left the Band by Tenaciuos D. depends on what kind of break up you mean..

Well it has to be ' You'll cry when I die ' by A House. For obvious reasons. We are talking bitter break-ups here ???

Has to be slim slow slider by Van Morrison. The bauld Damien Rice has to get a mention here too so I'll go with Cannonball
