5 Steps: Going Through a Breakup
1. Purchase The Cure's "Pornography" album if you do not already have it.
2. If you have any other friends who are going through a break up as well; contact them.
3. Gather in a smallish room lit only by candles and discuss your relationship troubles.
4. Put in the CD and put out all the lights, sit and silence and listen to the album to it's completion.
5. Remember it's down the street, not across.

Glad I could help!

wow....I'm surprised at you people. You've left out the king:

Nine Inch Nails - Something I can Never Have

Still, I find that listening to this depressing music while going through a depressing time is...well...depressing. You need to be trying to lift up, not drag even further down.

Dance / hip-hop played to the loving gyrations of a stripper's hips do well. :) Strip Clubs can be the cure for the common break-up.

Eamon - "I Don't Want You Back"

and the girl's perspective is only about sex and how the guy made her cheat. which makes me feel better. eamon is talking about being cheated on and being hurt, and the girl's perspective is all about how he has a small dick or something. going through a breakup is starting to realize girls aren't actually sensitive.. and that response is not a sensitive response.

thanks for the good songs everyone, and keep them coming.. it still hurts :\

I would personally be a big fan of soft/chillout tunes myself, I like to listen to this stuff to calm down... and considering music largely shapes my mood, I'll suggest a few ambient trance stuff, and try to tell ya what CD's ya can find it on, if I know

Jon Hopkins - Lost in Thought : Ministry Of Sound Chillout Annual 2002
Everything But The Girl - Miss you
ATB - Let you go
Jakatta feat Seal - My Vision
Michael Woods - Solex

those are a few trance/ ambient trance songs I find calming... but try some Cafe Del Mar stuff.. its all pretty good for calming you down...

Neo_Drakin says:

ooh, wait I got some alternative here for ya too!

Dashboard Confessional - The Sharp Hint of New Tears
Dashboard Confessional - Again I Go Unnoticed
Dashboard Confessional - Sailors And Saints

The ambient trance stuff is sadder, this is more for a breakup! Get these for sure, all three are good
