Various good breakup songs?
As the question states, I'm looking for some good breakup songs. Idon't like /want hip-hop, rap, or country songs. Typical pop music is out too. What I really like/want is rock songs. Preferably for various attitudes about the breakup, like angry, sad, happy, etc. For ex., "So Happy"-Theory of a Deadman, "Mr. Brightside"-The Killers, "How To Save A Life"-The Fray. Any help is appreciated, the more specific the better. Thanks!
