Please can I have your best 'fuck you' breakup songs?

Because they are making me feel better.

So far I've only got:
Irreplaceable - Beyoncé
Take a bow - Rihanna
Ridin' solo - Jason derulo
smile - lily allen

Cheesy, singalong type stuff. Even better with an understory of being cheated on

Thanks Grin

Heartache makes the world go round @PatatasBravasSi Grin

I hope all the suggestions are helping yours a little more bearable Flowers Gin

PS when you’re done with the breakup songs, I strongly recommend building yourself a happy/sisterhood themed playlist!

Linkin Park - Lost in the Echo. Also Burn it Down but that one is more sad than just fuck you.

Just listened to survivor by Destiny's child.

vengefuldog · 10/10/2018 09:40

Lauryn hill - ex factor

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 10/10/2018 09:44

Kate Nash - Dickhead.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 10/10/2018 09:45

Helped organised my feelings for my ex. He's still a dickhead.

DownAndUnder · 10/10/2018 10:05

I got a lot of satisfaction from playing “short dick man” every time ex collected Ds (he was too young to understand). Also big Sean I don’t fuck with you, poison, Katy Perry part of me Smile

Rage against the machine, killing in the name of. It's not exactly a break up song per se, but shouting 'fuck you I won't do what you tell me' at the top of your voice is extremely therapeutic.

BasilFaulty · 10/10/2018 12:20

Hole in the head by Sugababes is a BANGER. đź’Şđź’Ş

LuckyAmy1986 · 10/10/2018 12:35

Kelly Clarkson - since you been gone
Christina Aguilera - Fighter
Delta Goodrem - not me, not I
Leona Lewis - better in time
I realise the last two are not so much fuck you songs!

However the best break up song I have ever found is Let it Flow, it has helped me through a few break ups, bit of a tear jerker but so uplifting

LuckyAmy1986 · 10/10/2018 12:36

Let it flow is by Toni Braxton FYI!

LuckyAmy1986 · 10/10/2018 12:37

Omg just remembered a super angry one! Robbie Williams -Karma Killer. I hate Robbie but this song is great for getting the anger out b

Brand New - seventy times 7

"So is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids
Have another drink and drive yourself home
I hope there's ice on all the roads
And you can think of me when you forget your seat belt
And again when your head goes through the windshield
Is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
So let's end this call and end this conversation
And is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
When you say "best friends" means friends forever!"

Gramgram · 10/10/2018 13:59

Try Already Gone by the Eagles.

ThursdaysChildHasFarToGo · 10/10/2018 14:18

F you - Ceelo Green - explicit version!

DoctorTwo · 10/10/2018 21:08

All Against All - The Haunted.

Sample lyric:-
"If you turned inside out I'd still walk away"

It's 4 1/2 minutes of hate.

Contains swears

Criiiiiinge · 11/10/2018 13:18

Been updating my playlist based on these suggestions as just broke up with cheating XP on Sunday.

Wanted to add I don’t care by Sheryl

Also a lot of Sia’s songs.

Flowers to you op.

tellmewhenthespaceshiplands · 11/10/2018 13:45

This thread would make as awesome playlist!

Agree with other posters in particular with Alanis Morisette "You oughta know" it's just so deliciously angry, raw and from a very screwed up relationship.

On a brighter note when you come out of the stage of wanting to stab him/her in their eyes and feel a bit more philosophical about stuff Cher's "Believe" is so wonderfully cheesy and chirpy Wink

Blackladybug · 11/10/2018 13:57

Big Sean- I don't fuck with you. Also hilarious video from the movie Fist Fight to that song Grin

MaMisled · 11/10/2018 13:57

CeLo Green...the Fuck You version of Forget You and much better!

QuentinWinters · 11/10/2018 14:02

Skunk Anansie Twisted
Mahalia Sober

bodgersmash · 06/04/2019 23:27

Just hunted for this thread as I remembered it from last year and really needed it right now.

I have one to add to the list - Robbie Williams - Sexed Up

Hope that all of you who were going through this six months ago are in a much better place now Thanks

Pinkiii · 07/04/2019 07:31

Mariah carey-someday
