If you love love, then chances are you’ve experienced a break-up or two and if you haven’t, try to keep that streak alive. That song from the 1960s is a song for a reason… breaking up is hard to do. Sometimes it’s not just hard, it’s hardening. As in, it hardens your heart a little and might even make you cynical about relationships altogether! I remember a relationship “my friend” was in and when it ended, one person said to the other:
“Let me know when you’re less bipolar.”
Not the best choice of words and obviously the (self-diagnosed) bipolar person laughed. Then hit the other with a baseball bat. 🥴
The inspiration for this list of bitter breakup ballads (they’re not all ballads but who could resist such a chance for alliteration!?) is a song that is sure to be one of the all-time greats of this genre. It’s by a songwriter named Jensen McRae and the song is called “God Has A Hitman.” If you haven’t heard it yet and you’re one of those people who’ve been through a hard breakup (and you’re bipolarness is behaving today (sorry, I need forgiveness for that comment too, huh?)), “God Has A Hitman” might definitely stab you right in the heart in a good way. But dood, be cool. Don’t let your crazy side make you do crazy things to get back at an ex after listening to this compilation of great bitter breakup songs. Mmk? Comment below with songs you’d add…
“God Has A Hitman” Jensen McRae
“Jar of Hearts” Christina Perri
“Guiding Light” Muse
“Gives You Hell” The All-American Rejects
“She Hates Me” Puddle Of Mudd
“We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” Taylor Swift
“Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong” Spin Doctors
